Extractions: The Chinese Dragon The Chinese Dragon Most of us are all to familiar with the classic western concept of the dragon, but not all have a great insight into probably one of the most recognised dragons, the Chinese dragon. In Chinese mythology there are five types of dragon:- Those guarding the gods and emperors Those controlling the wind and rain Earthly dragons which deepened the rivers and seas Guardians of hidden treasure The first dragon The First dragon appeared to the mythical emperor Fu-hsi, and filled the hole in the sky made by the monster Kung Kung. Its waking, sleeping and breathing determined day and night. Season and weather. There are many differences between the classical dragon and the Chinese dragon, these include the ability to fly even without wings, shape-shifting abilities, and of course the general benevolent behaviour to the populace. The Chinese dragon is made up of nine entities. The head of camel, the eyes of a demon, the ears of a cow, the horns of a stag, the neck of a snake, it's belly a clam's, it's claws that of an eagle, while the soles of his feet are that of a tiger, and the 117 scales that cover it's body are that of a carp. The Chinese dragon has four claws as standard, but the Imperial dragon has five, this is to identify it above the lesser classes. Anyone other than the emperor using the 5 claw motif was put to death.

Extractions: Moon Cake Festival: A Mid-Autumn Festival (Chung Chiu) , the third major festival of the Chinese calendar, is celebrated on the 15th day of the eighth month. This festival corresponds to harvest festival s observed by Western cultures (in Hong Kong, it is held in conjunction with the annual Lantern Festival Contrary to what most people believe, this festival probably has less to do with harvest festivities than with the philosophically minded chinese of old. The union of man's spirit with nature in order to achieve perfect harmony was the fundamental canon of Taoism, so much so that contemplation of nature was a way of life. This festival is also known as the Moon Cake Festival because a special kind of sweet cake (yueh ping) prepared in the shape of the moon and filled with sesame seeds, ground lotus seeds and duck eggs is served as a traditional Chung Chiu delicacy. Nobody actually knows when the custom of eating moon cake of celebrate the Moon Festival began, but one relief traces its origin to the 14th century. At the time, China was in revolt against the Mongols. Chu Yuen-chang, and his senior deputy, Liu Po-wen, discussed battle plan and developes a secret moon cake strategy to take a certain walled city held by the Mongol enemy. Liu dressed up as a Taoist priest and entered the besieged city bearing moon cake. He distributed these to the city's populace. When the time for the year's

Extractions: As far as I can remember, I've always loved dragon art. For years, I've been buying and collecting dragon posters and prints. (My collection extends well past dragon art, for example I also collect dragon statues, t-shirts, books and movies - but my true love is definitely dragon art.) Click here to buy dragon art posters! DRAGONS!!! Dragons! Dragons! The mere mention of the word would strike fear into the hearts of men. Their hearts would race, as all men, no matter how big or small, imagined that he would have to confront a larger than life, fire-breathing dragon. Today, all that remains is dragon art, memorabilia and other items that cannot hurt us. People today believe that dragons never existed. Personally I believe that we, the human race with the help of dragonslayers wiped out this extraordinary race simply because we feared them.

Extractions: Ancient Chinese myths were not recorded in a systematic way in any work, and , as a result, only fragments of them are extant today. Fortunately, many classical works of the pre-Qin period and the Han Dynasties, such as the Zhuangzi , the Liezi , the Huainanzi , the Chronicles by Zuo Qiuming, Conversations from the States , and above all, the Book of Mountains and Seas , contain fragments and excerpts of ancient mythical stories, which make up a beautiful and fascinating part of our classical literature. Below are some of the myths most known even to children. They are short but vivid. As you will see, most of the main characters in these mythical stories are gods, ghosts foxes and spirits with human qualities and human feelings. ANCIENT
