Happy new year of the dragon! 龙年快乐!

‘Power in China was vested in the Dragon Throne and the emperor wore robes with dragons emblazoned upon them’ (Rutherford & Menzies 2004: 59).  Dragons represented masculine vigour and fertility and was ‘often pictured chasing the pearl of wisdom, demonstrating ‘the emperor’s search for the divine truth…to the benefit of the empire’ (Garrett 1998: 51).
