What does peach blossom stand for?

1. Peach blossom had multiple meanings in ancient China. In different artistic conception or context, it symbolizes spring, love, longevity, good life, disciples and so on.

Secondly, in "Chasing the Sun in Kuafu" and "Peach Blossom Garden", the author chose "peach", Kuafu's scepter turned into a peach grove, and the fisherman met the peach grove, mainly because peach blossoms were in sunny spring, and the author chose "peach" to express his inner feelings about freedom and a better life.

Peach blossom symbolizes spring. Peach blossoms bloom in early spring, which has been a symbol of spring since ancient times.

There is a poem in Du Fu's Buju that "peach blossoms are like jade, but they must be like fans of the past". Peach blossom, as a synonym for spring and beauty, deserves people's love.

Wu Rong said in the poem Peach Blossom that "the trees are full of beautiful red flowers, and colorful flowers burn in spring". The tree is full of beautiful red flowers, and ten thousand colorful flowers are overflowing and burning brightly, rendering a harmonious spring scenery.

2. Peach blossom symbolizes love. Flower language and its representative meaning are prisoners of love. In ancient China, peach blossom has always been inseparable from the word love. Ancient divination often said that peach blossoms are auspicious, which means that peach blossoms can bring people the opportunity to fall in love.

Ancient poets often associated peach blossom with love. In addition to the poem "A peach blossom and a poem, who is crazy about flowers" in "The meaning of drunkenness is not in wine, and the meaning of fragrance is not in wine", it is also often used to lament the misfortune of beauty. In the Tang Dynasty poet Li He's "Into the Wine", the phrase "Love is a peach blossom falling like red rain when youth withers" describes the beautiful disillusionment of love.

When the sudden death of life cannot be linked with people's desire for beauty to live forever, peach blossom becomes the sad and metaphor of the old beauty's misfortune.

Peach blossom symbolizes students and disciples. The spring composed of peach blossom and plum blossom is full of infinite vitality and has been praised as a student and disciple since ancient times. The phrase "peaches and plums are all over the world" in Zi Tongzhi Ji Jiantang's Ninety-first Year after Dance edited by Sima Guang is a metaphor that a person has students everywhere, in which peaches and plums refer to the younger generation who have been trained or the students who have been taught.

Peach blossom symbolizes a good life. Tao Yuanming's "Peach Blossom Garden" describes "Entering the Peach Blossom Forest, there are hundreds of steps along the coast, there are no miscellaneous trees in it, the grass is delicious, and the English are colorful", which has created a fascinating immortal ideal for people and has inspired and influenced many generations of people with lofty ideals and people who pursue a better life.

Therefore, the ancients often named peach blossoms as their residences, such as "Taohuawu", "Taohuapu" and "Taohuaan".
