Twenty -eight places (4)

Xi'an Qin Brick Hanwa Museum Collection of the Han Dynasty white tiger tiles

White Tiger was originally the god of the West in ancient mythology.

The western seven -bedrooms of the 28th place: Kui, Lou, Stomach, Po, Bi, 觜, Ginseng, and its image tiger, located in the West, belonging to gold, color white, always known as white tiger.

"Taishang Huangya Zhai Yi" Volume 44 is called the White Tiger West Douxing Jun: "Kui Su Tianjun, Lou Su Tian Jae Xingjun, Stomach Su Tiancang Xingjun, Ang Su Tianmu Xingjun, Bisu Tianer Star Star Star Jun, Xing Su Tian Ping Xingjun, attended Tianshisatsu Jun. "

As for its image;

"Daomen Tongjiao must use collection" Volume Qiyun: "The West should stay on the tiger, British quality, Su Su Qingyin, prestigious beasts, howling the mountain forest, come to the right."

In the four elephants, Qinglong and White Tiger are often called;

Tiger, the length of the beast, its power and the ability to surrender ghosts in the legend make it become the beast of the yang, often with the dragon;

"Yun Conglong, Feng Conghu" has become the best partner to surrender ghosts.

And Bai Hu is also the god of war and killing. It is one of the four spirits;

Of course, it is also changed from Xingju, and its white is because the West, the West is gold in the five elements, and the color is white. So it is called Baihu, not because it is white, but from the five elements.

"Historical Records. "Tiangong Book" "East Palace Canglong, Southern Zhu Bird, Xixianchi Xianchi, Beiyong Xuanwu"

The West Palace is not white tiger, but Xianchi.

Xianchi is the star of the main grain. The main autumn is harvested because the grains are harvested in autumn, so it is placed in autumn, but it is not an animal. How can it be matched with the dragon, bird, and turtle?

"Justice": "Xianchi Samsung is in the five cars, the sky played south, and the fish and birds are also."

Therefore, in the Song Dynasty, it had been questioned: "Canglong, Zhu Bird, Xuanwu, and Seven Owners.

As for Xianchi, there is a star, outside the twenty -eighth place. "

There is also an explanation of Xianchi, where the sun is bathing.

"Huainanzi. Astronomy": "The sun is out of the valley, baths in Xianchi, and wins in Fusang, which is called Chenming."

It can be seen that Xianchi was originally a place where the Tacorns were regarded as sunrise, and Xianchi was also alkaline water lake. It should be the area of ​​Laoshan or Qinghai.

This proves that the star palace of the primitive people has no concept of blue dragon and white tiger.

"Book of Rites. "Rites" so -called: ‘Linfeng Turtle Dragon, which is the four spirit. "

Replace the salty ponds that are not animals to Kirin. Later generations have the habit of four spirit and tigers.

There are 54 constellations and more than 700 stars in the Western seven places. They form the white tiger pattern.
