The symbolic significance of chrysanthemum in ancient poetry;
Symbol of hermit
Since being favored by Mr. Tao Qian, Chrysanthemum has become a "hermit in flowers". Tao Yuanming's "He Guo Ji": "Fang Ju opened Lin Yao, and Song Qingyan lived in it. With this beauty, it is outstanding for the cream. " It reflects his yearning for enviing a quiet and comfortable life. He picked chrysanthemums leisurely under the east fence, giving chrysanthemums a unique and extraordinary hermit style with the attitude of an idyllic poet and hermit, and chrysanthemums have the spirituality of hermits since then.
Second, the symbol of soldiers.
Of course, Huang Chao, the leader of peasant uprising in the late Tang Dynasty, changed the image of chrysanthemum hermit. "Whispering westerly winds are planted all over the yard, and cold butterflies are hard to come by. If I were Di Qing in another year, I would report peach blossoms. " Until September 8th in Qiu Lai, I will kill all the flowers after they open. Tianxiang permeates Chang 'an, and the city is full of golden flowers. "In his poems with obvious suggestibility and tendentiousness, Chrysanthemum has become a brave and strong fighter who has gone through many vicissitudes, pleaded for the people and upheld justice for heaven.
At the same time, in Don Cen Can's "Thinking about Chang 'an Hometown on March 9th": If you want to climb the mountain, no one will send you wine, and you will pity your hometown chrysanthemum far away, you should open it by the battlefield. Chrysanthemum has also become a representative of soldiers.
Third, the symbol of sadness.
Song Liqing took a photo of "Drunken Flowers": the fog is thick and the clouds are sad forever, and the golden beast disappears. The festival is also a double ninth festival, and the jade pillow gauze kitchen is half cold at night. Dongli drinks until dusk, and faint chrysanthemum fragrance overflows his sleeves. Don't say clear autumn is not a person, the west wind rolls the flag and beads curtain, and the person in the curtain is thinner than that Huang Ju. Li Qingzhao was a poetess in Song Dynasty, and chrysanthemum became the object of expressing her feelings in her works. "Dongli put wine after dusk, and there is fragrance in the sleeve. Mo Tao does not die, the curtain rolls west wind, and people are thinner than yellow flowers. "
Express your inner feelings for your long-lost husband with the word "thin". Chrysanthemum is a flower that blooms in autumn. People like it very much, not only because of its diverse shapes and bright colors, but also because it blooms in the frost of withered flowers, not kitsch, and goes with the flow. Chrysanthemum is one of the four gentlemen, and has been highly respected by many poets throughout the ages.
They plant chrysanthemums, wear chrysanthemums, and sing poems and chant chrysanthemums. Chrysanthemum image expresses many symbolic meanings, depending on the occasion and context.
