Why is the life of a woman who belongs to a sheep bad?

Why do you say that the sheep girl has a bad life? China's physiognomy!

As one of the 12 Zodiac animals, sheep has always had the beauty of "three yang opening Thailand". The ancients regarded sheep as gods and mascots. In ancient Chinese, the words "sheep" and "auspicious" are interlinked. Therefore, many ancient artifacts wrote the inscription of "auspicious" as "auspicious sheep".

At first, the image of sheep was very positive.

However, we can always hear such remarks around us: "Ten sheep are not complete, one person sits in front of the temple", "Men are sheep, women are sheep, and the house is empty", "Men are sheep, and gold piles on the roof, so you don't need to bring rations when you go out. Women belong to the sheep, and their life foundation is very hard, as well as Foucault's "Pakkoniang" and so on ... For this reason, many people avoid having children in the Year of the Sheep.

Then, how did the sentence that a woman who belongs to a sheep has a bad life come from?

The picture book "Horse Elephant" appeared at the end of Yuan Dynasty.

In fact, this is all caused by the landform of China. At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, there was a record in the photo album "The Portrait of Ma Shenyi" that "the sheep's eyes were white and the adulterer entered the room". It means that white eyes are like sheep's eyes, and women with sheep's eyes are prone to having an affair.

With the record of Ma Xiang, there are more and more stories about unlucky women in subsequent photo collections. Husband, fornication and other irregular behaviors are all attributes of sheep-eyed women. It is only at this stage that it has nothing to do with the zodiac.

The saying that women are unlucky sheep appeared in Jin Ping Mei.

In the Ming Dynasty, sheep-eyed women began to develop into sheep women, and the original "ten sheep and nine blessings" were also misrepresented as "ten sheep and nine imperfections". There is such a bridge in the novel Jin Ping Mei. Ximen Qing invited Yin and Yang teachers to measure and divine for Li Pinger. Teacher Yin and Yang said that Li Pinger had done evil in her last life, and the punishment in this life was to turn her into a sheep. It can be seen that the saying that the life of a sheep girl is not good has been circulating since the Ming Dynasty.

Hong Xiuquan and Yang created the "Red Sheep Robbery" together.

Until the middle and late Qing Dynasty, the war triggered by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Movement killed the people. Because of the surnames of the flag bearers Hong Xiuquan and Yang, this uprising was called "Red Sheep Robbery" by the folk society. In addition, Empress Dowager Cixi in the late Qing Dynasty was also a sheep. Under the momentum of the anti-Qing revolutionary party, in order to curse Empress Dowager Cixi, the folk began to spread the saying that "ten sheep and nine are incomplete, and one person sits in front of the temple". The unlucky idea of being a sheep girl is deeply rooted in the hearts of ordinary people.

Empress Dowager Cixi, a sheep, was attacked by the revolutionary party in the late Qing Dynasty.

In fact, the ancients set animal symbols to indicate the year, and there is no difference between good and bad. If the image of a sheep is really unlucky, how can it enter the zodiac? !

Ancient paintings, mountains, ancient sheep.

Moreover, the ancients always regarded sheep as a symbol of "virtuous livestock" and "benevolence, righteousness and courtesy". The so-called "good flock" means that sheep like to live in groups. The so-called "kindness" means that sheep are kind and have horns but are not good at fighting. The so-called "death righteousness" means that the sheep are quiet when they are slaughtered. Thus, there is the story of Wang Xuan's "sheep for cattle". The so-called "knowing the ceremony" means that the sheep knows the kindness and the lamb kneels and suckles, which has been a symbol of filial piety since ancient times.

In Shuo Wen Jie Zi, "beauty" is also interpreted as "liver leaf, from sheep, from big" and "sheep is beautiful". So no matter which angle you look at it from, there is no doubt that sheep is a symbol of auspiciousness and kindness.

Therefore, the saying that a sheep girl is unlucky should not be circulated any more today with the unprecedented development of science and technology.
