The Power of the Dragon

Representing supreme spiritual power, the dragon is the oldest symbol in Asian mythology. For centuries the Chinese dragon has symbolized wisdom and strength, power over the land, the water and the heavens. The dragon's magical powers were thought to bring wealth and good luck to the Chinese people and much needed rainfall to ensure plentiful crops. Today, the dragon is still a prominent figure of Chinese New Year, repelling evil spirits and safeguarding a prosperous New Year.

It seems symbols of mythology are gaining in popularity as people look to history for symbols of inspiration, wisdom, power and strength. Check out the Chinese dragon charm at www.charminglifedesigns.com
