Dragon Tales

The Tibetan dragon is a creature of great creative power. A positive icon representing the strong male yang principle of heaven, change, energy, wealth and creativity (the tiger represents yin). Dragons guard the tree of life, protect the pearls of wisdom and harness the power of all earthly and celestial elements in the Buddhist religion. They inhabit land (mountains) sea and air (cloudband motifs). Dragons are thought to be the son of heaven forming the origin of Chinese emperors.
