In Chinese culture, dragons hold a significant and revered place. They are considered powerful and auspicious symbols, often associated with strength, wisdom, and good fortune. Unlike in Western mythology, where dragons are often depicted as fearsome and malevolent creatures, Chinese dragons are seen as benevolent beings that control water, rainfall, typhoons, and floods. They are emblematic of imperial power and authority, often linked to the Emperor, who was regarded as the dragon’s earthly counterpart. The dragon is also one of the twelve Chinese zodiac animals, representing those born in the Year of the Dragon as ambitious, energetic, and fearless individuals.
