Are you afraid of rain?

Witchcraft is an attempt to influence or control some people and things with the help of supernatural mysterious forces. In ancient times, female performers were called witches and wizards. Witchcraft should begin with the worship of nature by ancient Tibetan ancestors. Because nature often gives people a sense of fear. The ancestors also wanted nature, not only to worship and support the god of nature for help, but also to make nature obey their own will through their own words and deeds, thus producing a kind of "fantasy and action to change nature." One of the concrete manifestations of these fantasies and behaviors is witchcraft.

Second, the classification of witchcraft:

From the nature of witchcraft, witchcraft can be divided into black witchcraft and white witchcraft. Black witchcraft refers to witchcraft used when framing others; White witchcraft is used when praying for good luck, so it is also called auspicious witchcraft.

Judging from the means of witchcraft, witchcraft can be divided into two categories, one is imitation witchcraft and the other is contact witchcraft.

Imitation of witchcraft: a witchcraft method in which something similar is used as a substitute for good luck or disaster. If you hate someone, take a human form and write down that person's birthday, or burn it, or splash water, or stab it with a knife and let that person die. In nature, this belongs to black witchcraft. Contact witchcraft: it is a kind of witchcraft means, which uses some things or things related to things to seek good luck and frame bad luck. This kind of witchcraft can achieve its goal as long as it touches a part of someone's body or someone's equipment.

Third, the application of witchcraft.

1. Begging for help: refers to people deceiving and praying for natural forces or ghosts and gods to help them achieve a certain goal in some way. Han people pray for rain and worship the dragon king, but worship fails to achieve witchcraft, forcing the dragon king to beg for rain. For example, carrying the Dragon King around the street, uncovering the Dragon King, draining the well water and so on.

2, evocation: bring back the lost soul with witchcraft. Not only for people, but also for animals and plants. 3. Curse: It uses the magic of language to hurt each other. The most common form is face-to-face curse, such as natural death, pieces and so on. More is to achieve the purpose of witchcraft by cursing each other's names.

4. Exorcism: It is an aggressive witchcraft aimed at ghosts killing the dead.

5. Avoidance of evil spirits: It is a negative witchcraft to use something to stop evil spirits from coming. .

Fourth, the method of witchcraft.

1, what is the method: it is a kind of witchcraft that uses poison to pest people. It is an ancient mysterious and horrible witchcraft, which is mainly popular in southern China and some ethnic minorities. Method, from the point of view of glyph, is to put many bugs in a container. Confucius and Ying Da said in Notes to Thirteen Classics: "Treating people with poison, I don't know what it means, and this method is called poison." "Compendium of Materia Medica, Insect Department IV" defines poisonous insects for human consumption. "Take a hundred insects into the Weng, and after years of opening, one insect will eat it all, which is called the law."

Production and types of magic: Most people who store magic are women, which is their specialty. Yunnan southern magazine: "Yunnan people keep magic ... people try to hide them, and children worry about food." Magic guards, don't be locked in a secret room, let women feed them. Seeing that men are defeated, they gather in pure yin. " Zhou Qufei's answer to the generation outside the ridge: the ancient poison is a "night sacrifice for women" and the "new theory of southern Yunnan" is to please foreign women. There are many methods, such as gold silkworm method, malnutrition method, epilepsy method, swelling method, loach method, stone method, scorpion method and snake method. Among them, the gold silkworm method is the fiercest. In the past, superstitious activities of raising gold silkworm were very popular in some counties and towns in Fujian. 3, the application method is often put into food. Most curses are put in food. In Chiya, the curse is put in the food first, and the taste is increased a hundred times. In addition, they are placed on the first piece of food. Under the method, there are many insects themselves, which have the advantages of insect feces and saliva foam. Sometimes you can do magic without eating. Talia Liu's "Huang Miao's Notes": "Miao is very poisonous, so there is no need to eat specially. Anyone who boos it with anger and looks at it with his eyes can spread it to people; Those who use grain will also take advantage. "

4. Symptoms and verification methods of patients with gonorrhea: Liu Xifan "suffers from gonorrhea, or has a sore throat and cannot swallow; Or the face is green and yellow, and the day will be barren; Or when you have something on your chest and cough; Or fullness of chest and abdomen, numbness of limbs; Or days, or months. "Verification method: You can let it chew raw soybeans, and it will be poisoned without fishy smell. In ethnic minority areas, put a piece of duck egg white in your mouth and insert a silver needle on it. If duck egg white and silver needles turn black, they will be poisoned.
