The author tried to identify the connection between snakes and female image in the ancient time from mythology, totemism and ancient literature in order to find out a more reasonable and appropriate explanation for the interpretation of a dream about snake as the omen of giving birth to a girl.詩經小雅斯干夢占生女夢兆蛇崇拜女媧神話Shi Jing（詩經）Si gan（斯干）snaketo divine by interpreting dreams
