Among them, witchcraft is similar to that seen in our TV series, that is, the witch God Han exerts influence or control on some people through means such as descending gods, witchcraft and spells. The most famous voodoo event in history is "The Difficult Time in the Beginning", and Qin, a witch who has made great contributions to "spiritual education", was canonized as a celestial witch god by Emperor Wu. However, after the death of Emperor Wu of Song, Liu Xun, his younger brother Liu Jun and Princess Dongyang hooked up with a witch, and even colluded with the witch, using dolls, incense tables and casting spells in an attempt to kill his biological father. After the incident was exposed, the two brothers actually hacked their father to death with a knife in the bedroom.
Physiognomy is based on human facial features, bones, complexion, posture, palm prints and so on. Speculate good or bad luck. The physiognomy in Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties inherited the achievements of Qin and Han Dynasties and carried them forward. During the Three Kingdoms period, there was an allusion that Cao Pi, the eldest son of Cao Cao, was very afraid of Wang Wei's delay in establishing a prince. So I went to the physiognomy expert to ask about it. Gao said, "Your face is priceless. There is nothing to worry about when you are forty." Sure enough, xelloss became emperor, and at the age of forty, xelloss was seriously ill and died.
Talking about dreams means interpreting dreams, which originated in the period of the Yellow Emperor and reached its peak in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. Nowadays, it also exists in our daily life, especially in the roadside stalls of some scenic spots. In ancient times, the legend of dream-taking was magical, saying that the dream-taker could build a bridge between man and God. Zhang Mao of the Eastern Jin Dynasty once dreamed that someone gave him an elephant. Wan refused to analyze and said, "You will be a big official, but it will not end well." Then Wan said, "Elephants are big beasts, and beasts are' guardians', so you will be a big official in the future, but elephants often become prey of others and are hurt by others because their teeth are precious. Later, Zhang Mao was recruited as a civilian, and soon Shen Chongzhi rebelled, and Zhang Mao, an alien, was eradicated.
The unprecedented development of geomantic omen in Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties is mainly because it is closely related to people's lives and became a science in Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. "The place where cows sleep" has always been said by ordinary people. The hero of the story is Tao Kan, and Tao Kan buried his dead father in the land where the cow slept. This land is the immortal who guides Tao Kan, saying that "this land can bless future generations". Tao Kan was lucky enough to be an official all the way to the military and political officials in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
In fact, the origin of alchemy can be traced back to ancient times. The decline of the unified thought of Qin and Han Dynasties and Confucianism objectively gave alchemy a great development space and improved in all aspects. Especially since Wei and Jin Dynasties, due to the influence of Buddhism and Taoism, the mysticism of karma gradually attached to it. So, from the emperor's ministers to the ordinary people, they are addicted to all kinds of magic. This is the reason for the development of alchemy in Wei and Jin Dynasties.
