The role of witchcraft dance

The witchcraft sacrificial dance had a deep historical origin, which originated in the early primitive society. At that time, the productivity was low, and humans could not explain the laws of material movement and natural phenomena in the universe. Thus, the concept of gods and ghosts was born. Witches were believed to be able to communicate with gods and ghosts. They communicated with humans and gods through dancing and other means. The dance in the sacrificial activities of witches was called the witch dance. The sacrificial dance also originated from the totem worship dance and witchcraft ritual dance of the primitive society. For example, exorcism originated from the totem belief in ancient times. It was related to witchcraft and totems. It was a witchcraft dance with the function of sacrifice in ancient times to expel plague ghosts. Later, it spread to various places and had different styles in different regions. It was divided into two schools,"Wen Nuo" and "Wu Nuo". The priests of the Grand Nuo Witch Dance wore masks with the color of ghosts and gods, called "Nuo masks". The performance was strict and mysterious. The purpose of the sacrifice included praying for the health of the family, protecting children, praying for the reproduction of the population, praying for the harvest of agriculture, and so on. There were also many regional witchcraft sacrificial dances, such as the "witch dance" in Guangxi, the "exorcism dance" in Jiangxi, and the "shaman dance" in Inner Mongolia, all of which had obvious characteristics of ancient sacrificial dances. These dances evolved from "entertaining gods" to "entertaining people" and were widely used in the sacrificial activities of various ethnic groups.

Witch dance was a dance used in the sacrificial activities of wizards. In the early days of primitive society, productivity was low. Humans could not explain the laws of the movement of matter in the universe and natural phenomena, which led to the concept of gods and ghosts. Wizards were believed to be able to communicate with gods and ghosts, speak on behalf of gods and ghosts, and execute their will. The dance they danced in sacrificial activities was the witch dance. In the past, wizards would also dance this kind of dance when they exorcised ghosts and cured diseases. For example, Qu Yuan's Nine Songs was also a song and dance of the wizard to worship the gods, which indicated that the wizard used dance to communicate with the relationship between humans and gods. Before Buddhism was introduced into Xizang, the religious dance used to pray for blessings and avoid disasters in Bon was also a witch dance. After it came into contact with Lu folk songs and integrated with other folk art forms, it gradually formed a religious dance called "Qiang Mu".

In ancient times, due to the lack of scientific knowledge about natural disasters, birth, aging, illness, and death, people believed that there were evil spirits causing trouble, so they regarded witches as messengers of gods to avoid disasters. In some areas where witchcraft was prevalent, witchcraft and dance began to combine. For example, in Chu, the worship of witches in the south gave rise to sacrificial forms such as "witch dance" and "exorcism dance". In the Xiuning area, witchcraft was very popular in the mountainous areas. The combination of witchcraft dance and Nuo sacrifice gave birth to Nuo dance. The Fishermen's Hongchao Festival in Sanjiang County of Liuzhou City originated from the primitive witchcraft cultural activities of the ancient Chinese people to exorcise ghosts and plague. The martial arts altar mainly consisted of fighting and dancing, which was the embodiment of the combination of witchcraft culture and dance in folk activities.

The role of witchcraft in the origin of art was enlightening, but it was not the fundamental reason for the emergence of art. Judging from the production process of the meaning of witchcraft, it was of enlightening significance to literary creation. The art created by witchcraft activities had two meanings: on the one hand, it could increase the atmosphere, emotion, and image of the witchcraft effect; on the other hand, this imitation of appearance creation and emotional rendering could bring people into an illusion reality, thus producing a pleasant feeling, which eventually transformed into aesthetic pleasure. At this time, it broke away from practical and utility purposes and became art. However, some studies have shown that not all primitive arts are related to witchcraft, and it is inappropriate to regard witchcraft as the root cause of art. In the process of moving from the " construction ability " provided by labor to artistic production," image creation " was a key step, and this process was completed in primitive witchcraft. For example, the primitive people gathered the strength of the group through the stories told by the wizards before the hunt, and then the people recreated the feeling and mental state of the hunt by dancing or singing. This process contained elements of witchcraft and was a manifestation of art production. In addition, some representative figures such as Edward Taylor, Reinacker, Salomon Reinache, and Gidson had studied witchcraft. Frazer made a detailed study of primitive witchcraft activities in the book Golden Branch, and his research results also provided a basis for exploring the role of witchcraft in the origin of art. In short, witchcraft played a certain role in the origin of art, but the origin of art was complicated and could not be attributed solely to witchcraft.

Witch belief was a primitive form of religious belief that emphasized communication with gods and the use of mysterious power. Wizards and witches played the role of a medium connecting humans and gods, performing ritual activities such as sacrifice and divination. Witchcraft rituals were activities that attempted to influence or control certain people and things with the help of supernatural mysterious forces under the witch belief system. For example, the Yi people would adopt witchcraft rituals to exorcise ghosts, eliminate disasters, and receive blessings, so as to avoid disasters brought by ghosts. In some ethnic building rituals, there would also be wizards or craftsmen who performed divination (such as reading chicken divinations) and regarded specific phenomena as oracles. These were the manifestations of witchcraft rituals in different scenarios.
