The origin and legends of the dragon are:
1. Dragons originated from snakes.
Eight thousand years ago, the rainfall was abundant, the grass was abundant and the world was abundant, and it was a paradise for snakes. So people imagined a snake body, a camel's head, a unicorn horn, turtle eyes, cow ears, lizard legs, tiger claws, fish scales, and a bearded animal—the dragon. Dragons are powerful enough to subdue all natural disasters and beasts.
2. ** to thunder.
The dragon first came from the image of lightning bending, and the ancestors through the observation of nature and celestial phenomena, believed that there was a kind of divine object in the sky that could call wind and rain, thunder and appear in the image of lightning, according to the thunder they called it dragon. Judging from the pronunciation of the dragon character, "lóng" is a record of the rumbling sound of thunder.
In the cloudy weather, whenever they saw the wind and clouds, heard the sound of rumbling thunder, and sometimes even saw the lightning that followed, the ancestors knew that it was the dragon coming. And the dragon makes them unpredictable, and sometimes very frightening, and makes them feel more and more awe. Thus, the worship of the dragon began.
The meaning of the dragon: The dragon is a symbol of power, nobility and honor in traditional Chinese culture, as well as a symbol of luck and success.
The reason why the dragon has this cultural symbolic meaning is that it has a lot to do with the incomparable supernatural power of the dragon in the legend and mythology of soaring clouds and fog in the sky, chasing waves when going to the sea, and calling for wind and rain in the world, but more importantly, because the dragon has often become the exclusive patent of Chinese slaves and the supreme ruler of feudal society for thousands of years, and is synonymous with imperial power.
Therefore, the emperor compared himself to the true dragon son of heaven, the body is called the dragon body, the clothes he wears are called the dragon robe, the chair he sits on is called the dragon chair, and the car and boat he rides are called the dragon chariot and the dragon boat. In short, everything related to their daily life is named dragon to signify the privilege of superiority.
