Chinese Four Symbols
These mythological creatures are celestial guardians of the four cardinal directions and are associated with different seasons and elements in Chinese cosmology:
Top Left (Dragon): Represents the Azure Dragon of the East, associated with the element of wood, the season of spring, and traditionally a symbol of the emperor and good fortune.
Top Right (Tiger): Represents the White Tiger of the West, associated with the element of metal, the season of autumn, and seen as a protector from evil spirits and a symbol of military force.
Bottom Left (Bird): Represents the Vermilion Bird of the South (often considered synonymous with the phoenix), associated with the element of fire, the season of summer, and a symbol of good luck and marital harmony.
Bottom Right (Tortoise/Turtle with Snake): Represents the Black Tortoise of the North (also called the Black Warrior), associated with the element of water, the season of winter, and a symbol of longevity and wisdom.
