Who is Duke Zhou?
Ji Dan, the Duke of Zhou, is the fourth son of King Ji Chang of Zhou Wen, the younger brother of King Ji Fa of Zhou Wuwang and the uncle of Zhou Chengwang. Duke Zhou was a strategist, politician and thinker. He had twice assisted Zhou Wuwang in the eastward expedition to Zhou Wang and conducted ritual and music activities.

The origin of duke Zhou
It is precisely because Duke Zhou perfected the system of rites and music. Confucius, who greatly admired the political system of the Western Zhou Dynasty, was also full of admiration for the Duke of Zhou. In The Analects of Confucius? It is recorded in Shu Er that one day Confucius sighed? What a failure! I haven't dreamed of Duke Zhou for a long time! ? What does that mean? How old am I! I haven't dreamed of Duke Zhou for a long time! ? In this way, the Duke of Zhou, who was out of reach, was connected with his dream. Confucius, as the founder of Confucianism, said so, and later generations naturally took this as a benchmark. For example, Yuan Zhen's "Wen Shao Fu" in the Tang Dynasty: Dreaming that the Duke of Zhou did not see it, thinking of virtue and strangeness? Su Shi's Zhougong Temple in Song Dynasty:? I have been to the Forbidden City since I dreamed of Duke Zhou and Shang Chunqiu. . At this time, the Duke of Zhou was closely connected with his dream, and later generations wrote The Duke of Zhou in the name of Zhou Gongdan.
Duke Zhou who can really interpret dreams
Was there really a dream interpreter during the Three Kingdoms period? Duke Zhou? Zhou Xuan. Zhou Zixuan Kong He, a native of the late Eastern Han Dynasty, was good at interpreting dreams. The accuracy of his dream interpretation can be said to be amazing. Once, Yang Pei, the satrap, had a dream in which a man said to him? On August 1st, Cao Gong will come, give you a ceremonial ceremony and give you medicinal wine to drink. ? Yang Pei was puzzled, so he called Zhou Xuan, who worked under him, and asked him for divination. Zhou Xuan replied? Etiquette is for the weak and sick literati, and medicine is also for treating people. On August 1st, the traitors will be defeated. ? At that time, the Yellow Scarf Uprising was in full swing, but it was predicted by Zhou Xuan that the Yellow Scarf Army was defeated.
Later, Zhou Xuan entered the court as an official. One day Xelloss summoned him and asked? I dreamed yesterday that a smoke rose into the sky. ? Zhou Xuan replied? I'm afraid a noble daughter will die unjustly. ? At that time, xelloss just sent someone to give Zhen Fu a dead gift. After hearing Zhou Xuan's words, he immediately regretted it and sent someone to chase the messenger, but it was too late.
Not surprisingly, in underdeveloped tribal societies, dreams are usually regarded as God's instructions or the devil's work. But in modern society, with the development of science and technology, the research of modern psychology has helped us to strip off the mysterious coat about dreams. Most dreams are just psychological phenomena, which are all kinds of subconscious reactions.
