Six Daijoko gods: White Tiger, Xuanwu Suzaku, Qinglong, Gouchen Tengshe. These six animals played an important role in China's divination, especially in Daoism and Liu Yizhong.

White tiger (white tiger)

In China, the white tiger is the god of war and war. Tigers have many magical powers, such as avoiding evil, avoiding disasters, praying for blessings, punishing evil and promoting good, getting rich, getting married and so on. And it is one of the four spirits, and of course it is also changed from the stars. Among these 28 stars, there are 7 in the west: osmium, building, stomach, ang, bi, Gou and Shen. Therefore, it is the representative of the west, and its whiteness is due to the west. The five elements belong to gold and the color is white. So it is called white tiger not because it is white, but because it comes from five elements.

Xuanwu (Xuanwu)

Xuanwu is a spiritual thing composed of turtles and snakes. Xuanwu originally meant Xuanming, and the ancient sounds of Wu and Ming are interlinked. Xuan means black; Ghost means yin. At first, Xuan Ming described the tortoise divination as follows: the tortoise's back is black, and the tortoise divination is to let the tortoise go to the underworld to ask his ancestors, bring back the answers and show them to the world in the form of divination. Therefore, the earliest Xuanwu is the tortoise. Since then, the meaning of Xuanming has been expanding. Turtles live in rivers, lakes and seas (including turtles), so Xuan Ming became a water god; The tortoise lives long, and Xuan Ming has become a symbol of immortality; The first underworld was in the north, and the Oracle of Shang Dynasty said "Oracle will lead to the north", so Xuan Ming became a northern god again.

In China, the phoenix is a symbol of happiness. There are many kinds of prototypes. Such as golden pheasants, peacocks, vultures, mandarin ducks, blackbirds (swallows), etc ... Some people say it is a Buddhist Dapeng golden winged bird. According to the phoenix myth, the phoenix has a chicken's head, a swallow's chin, a snake's neck, a fish's tail and five-color stripes. There are five kinds of phoenixes, divided by color: Red Phoenix, Lan Fenghuang, White Swan and Rayna Sue Phoenix, which can also be called Suzaku or Blackbird. Suzaku is one of the four spirits, and like the other three spirits, it comes from the stars, which is the general name of the seven nights in the south: well, ghost, willow, star, Zhang, wing and bird. Think of it as Suzaku. Scarlet, like fire, the south belongs to fire, hence the name Phoenix. It also has the characteristics of rebirth, like the immortal birds in the west, so it is also called the fire phoenix.

Qinglong-the patron saint of the East in Taoism

Qinglong (Qinglong)

In China, the status of dragons is much higher than that of Indians. Because in China, the dragon is sacred, supreme and a symbol of the emperor. It is also the representative of the east, and the five elements belong to wood. Because cyan belongs to wood, there is the saying of Zuo Qinglong and you Bai Hu.

Among these 28 stars, seven stars in the east-Jiao, Kang, Bian, Fang, Xin, Wei and Ji-are used as stars. The ancients imagined them as Jackie Chan. Because it is located in the east, the five elements are colored according to yin and yang, and the east is blue, hence the name "Qinglong". There is also a saying that dragons are promiscuous, having sex with cows gives birth to unicorns, and having sex with pigs gives birth to elephants. Another dragon gave birth to nine sons, unlike the dragon. Here's the thing: the eldest son is called prison cow: he loves music, so he often stands on the piano head. Such as Hu Qin of Han nationality and Qin Sang of Bai nationality. Ma Touqin in Mongolia may also be a variant of prison cattle. The second son's name is Chipi: He loves to kill people, so he is often put on weapons to intimidate the enemy. At the same time, it is used in ceremonial ceremonies to appear more solemn. The third son's name is Mo Chifeng: it is an animal-shaped dragon, which looks a bit like a dog. It is good at viewing, so it is often placed in the corner of the temple. It is said that it can deter demons and eliminate disasters. The first Si Er is not old: people like to growl, so they put it on the clock, mostly the image of not old. It is said that it lives by the sea, but it is very afraid of whales. Once a whale attacks, it screams in fear. Therefore, people make the wooden pestle into the shape of a whale, which makes the bronze bell particularly loud. The fifth son is a sister-in-law: shaped like a lion. It's imported, and it was introduced to China with Buddhism, so it's a bit like Buddha. It is so quiet and likes fireworks. Therefore, it is often placed on the Buddha's seat or incense burner to protect the dharma. Liuzi is a bully: also called tortoise, he looks like a tortoise. Legend has it that in ancient times, it often carried three mountains and five mountains to make waves. After being appeased by Yu Xia, he made many contributions to Yu Xia. After flood control became an attack, Yu Xia accepted its advantages and let it recover on its own. So China's stone tablets are mostly carried by it. The seventh son is an armadillo: also known as the Charter, it looks like a tiger. According to legend, it upholds justice and can distinguish right from wrong, so it is placed on the top of the sign of silence and avoidance when officials patrol, so as to maintain the awe-inspiring atmosphere of the court. The eighth son is a burden: because he loves literature, he put it in two stone tablets. Mozi is a kiss: also known as fish-shaped dragon, with a tail. According to legend, it was introduced from India with Buddhism around the Northern and Southern Dynasties. It is something under the rain god in Buddhist scriptures, which can put out fires.
