What dragons are there in Chinese mythology?

Water Dragon, Fire Dragon, Earth Dragon, Golden Dragon, Wood Dragon. It is also divided into earth dragons, human dragons, and sky dragons. True Dragon. Among them, the true dragon has seven sons, seven-colored dragons.

The supreme ruler of the dragon is the Heavenly Dragon Ancestor, the next level is the Tailong Ancestor, and the next level is the Earth Dragon Ancestor. Together, they manage the Seven True Dragons, the Seven-Colored Dragons. The Red Dragon of the Han Dynasty and the Black Dragon of the Qing Dynasty.

Therefore, if the dragon is strong, the country is prosperous, and if the dragon is weak, the country is torn apart, or there is internal strife and external trouble. The dragon is divided into the heavenly dragon general and the earth dragon general, which is the general who protects the dragon. It is said that Han Xin is the incarnation of the Heavenly Dragon General, and Fan Xu is the Earth Dragon General.

I'm a real.

In Chinese culture, dragons have an important place and influence. From the Neolithic Age, more than 7,000 years ago, the ancestors worshipped the totem of the primitive dragon, and today people still use idioms or allusions with the word "dragon" to describe the beautiful things in life.

For thousands of years, dragons have permeated all aspects of Chinese society and become a kind of cultural cohesion and accumulation. The dragon has become a symbol of China, a symbol of the Chinese nation, and a symbol of Chinese culture. For every descendant of Yan and Huang, the image of the dragon is a symbol, a mood, and an emotion connected with flesh and blood!

The titles of "descendants of the dragon" and "descendants of the dragon" often make us excited, excited, and proud. In addition to spreading and inheriting the dragon culture in the land of China, it has also been brought to the world by the Chinese who have traveled overseas, and the most and most eye-catching ornaments are still dragons in the Chinese residential areas or Chinese towns in various countries around the world. As a result, "the descendants of the dragon" and "the kingdom of the dragon" have also been recognized by the world.

As a descendant of the dragon, you can't be ignorant of China's dragon culture. Without understanding dragon culture, you can't understand ancient Chinese civilization. What is the original form of a dragon?

How did the concept of dragons come about? How has its image and cultural meaning evolved? What is the influence of dragons in Chinese culture?

These problems have been plaguing people in different ways since ancient times, and they have not yet been fully solved, and they still give people a confusing feeling. Here, we will trace the traces of dragons, enter the ancient history and the world of dragons, and understand and explore the mysteries of dragons ......

The dragon's horns are like a deer, the head is like a camel, the eyes are like a rabbit, the neck is like a snake, the belly is like a mirage, the scales are like a fish, the claws are like an eagle, the palm is like a tiger, and the ears are like a cow. That is, there is the peace and gentleness of the deer, the perseverance of the camel, the maneuver of the rabbit, the venom of the snake and the city, the mystery of the mirage, the wealth of the fish, the awareness of the survival crisis and the accurate grasp of the opportunity of the eagle, the majesty, independence and vitality of the tiger, and the loyalty of the cherry cow.

The most basic feature of the image of the dragon is that it is "like a reed bush with nine grandchildren", and it is still controversial which of the nine animals it is. Legend has it that it can be visible and hidden, small and huge, short and long. The spring equinox ascends to the sky, the autumn equinox dives into the abyss, and these images of dragons, which have been developed in the late period, are more complex than the original dragons.

The creatures in dragon myths and legends are not real, so no one has heard what dragons are called, but the sound of dragons is described in **, like a copper plate.

戛 (jia abruptly) is used as a verb and is related to sound, it has two meanings, one is to beat, and the other is to scrape and grind. Some people believe that the dragon's cry is the sound of scraping the copper plate, and that the Northern Lights will emit a metallic sound, so it is inferred that the Chinese people came from the north, and the origin of the dragon is the Northern Lights.

The image of a dragon**.

There are many theories about the image of the dragon, one says that it is a crocodile, one says that it is a snake, and some people think that it is a pig, and there is even a saying that the earliest dragon is the lightning in the sky when it rains.

Most experts now believe that the dragon is a totemic complex with a snake as the main body. It has the body of a snake, the head of a pig, the horns of a deer, the ears of a cow, the whiskers of a sheep, the claws of an eagle, and the scales of a fish, which are combined into a dragon totem.

I only remember that there were Teng snakes, Jiaolong, Ying dragons, and divine dragons.

Candle Dragon, Ying Dragon, Cunning, Pixiu.

Ying Dragon with two wings, Jiaolong with one horn, Qiu Dragon with two horns, and Frog Dragon with no horns.

Five-clawed golden dragon.

Green Dragon Red Dragon. Demon Dragon Divine Dragon.

The first floor is wrong, the nine sons of the dragon are not dragons. There are five types of dragons according to the five elements. For example, the green dragon in the east belongs to wood, and the black dragon in the north belongs to water.

To be honest, I'm more inclined to exist, let's not talk about anything else, the idiom of empty wind still makes sense. Just like whether ghosts exist or not, there are many, many strange phenomena that cannot be explained by science, and if you search for them, there will be a lot of documentaries on scientific research about ghosts (if there is a reincarnation, there is a documentary).

Of the 12 zodiac signs, only the dragon we have not seen, the others are real and easy to see, so why did the ancients list the dragon as one of the 12 zodiac signs? What exists is reasonable! Could it be that the ancients would have us believe in a nothing?!

The universe knows so much, human beings are so small, and there are so many things in the universe that human beings don't know. The existence of human beings alone is a miracle and a mystery! So many scientists have not been able to decipher the secrets of life (just like the pitiful low use rate of the human brain, and the terrible high potential).

Who's to say that what we don't know doesn't necessarily exist?

I remember that I was once fascinated by Chinese myths and stories, so I found a lot of relevant materials, and one of them impressed me deeply, that is, the explanation of God (whether it is correct or not, but it is very valuable for reference): in the eyes of a caterpillar living in a one-dimensional world, the birds living in the two-dimensional world are gods, and in the eyes of birds, human beings living in three-dimensional space are gods. What about humans?

At present, it is generally believed that there is at least 12 dimensions of space, so are there other living beings in 4 dimensions, 5 dimensions, or even higher dimensions? It's all waiting for us to explore. (I don't know about the rest, but the 4-dimensional space has been confirmed to exist, you can see the references).

No. It's just a legend. Dinosaurs had --

Specifically, the dragons we know are legendary, and whether there really exist dragons on the earth depends on archaeologists

Oh, archaeologists and paleontologists don't know either.
