Metaphors in the Patterns of Sun, Moon, and Star of Southwest Ethnic Minorities

Abstract:

Starting with the patterns of southwest ethnic minority, I analyzed the components of those patterns and found that metaphors’universal existence in them. This article targets the study of metaphors in patterns of sun, moon, and star, which are divided into three categories: mystery and fantasy, light and hope, worship and power. Therefore, it comes to the conclusion that the metaphors in patterns reveal the national psychology and the aspiration for deities’ bless, at the same time, exert great mental influence upon the development and improvement of the ethnic minorities.
