虹信仰是一个世界性的民俗文化事象，在中国也有悠久的历史传承。虹不仅屡屡以龙蛇、美人及女神衣饰、天弓、神桥等形象出现，而且形成了诸多有关虹的预兆与禁忌。本文依据大量文献资料和民族志材料，参照域外虹信仰研究成果，运用民俗学、宗教学理论，较详尽地梳理和分析中国虹信仰中的虹形象、虹预兆和虹禁忌。
Rainbow worship, which is an important phenomenon in folk culture around the world, has a long history in China. The rainbow is often associated with such images as dragon and snakes, beauties, goddess, dresses of fairy maiden, holy bow and bridges in the heavens. It is believed that Rainbow can have a prophetic power and even related to the national events. In the folk culture, it has been a taboo to point at the rainbow with fingers. Unfortunately, there has been little if any research on the topic of rainbow worship. The present paper offers a detailed analysis of rainbow worship in China. The analysis is based on a wide variety of resources and materials, drawing on theories from folk and religious studies and with some reference to comparable researches in other countries.
