Ancient China Feng Shui masters believed that the brave were auspicious beasts who turned disasters into blessings. From ancient times to the present, emperors to the people have paid great attention to the collection and wearing of magic. Legend has it that magic not only has the function of auspiciousness to ward off evil spirits, but also has the function of saving houses, turning the old into the young and promoting marriage. In China, there is a custom of decorating "magic", which has rich meanings. People believe it can bring joy and good luck. In ancient times, people often used magic as the name of the army.
Legend has it that raccoons are a fierce beast, but this beast is divided into male and female, the male is called raccoon and the female is called raccoon. In ancient times, this beast was divided into one horn or two horns. One horn was called "Tianlu" and the other two horns were called "evil spirits". Most of the shapes are mainly two corners. In ancient times, it was also used to refer to brave soldiers. In the Beijing Opera "Lost Street Pavilion, Empty City Plan, Chop Ma Su", Zhuge Liang once wrote a lyric "Each is his own master", and "courage" means hero.
In the south, some people call it a "monster" or "four unlike". In China, there is a tradition of decorating "God beast". Like dragons, phoenixes and unicorns, mythical animals are considered to bring happiness and good luck.
Seeing the monster is a mythical animal, so there is no real image to be based on, and it can only rely on the imagination of painters and artists, so the images of monsters are different and varied. After the change of dynasty, the mythical animals were relatively uniform in shape, such as short wings, double horns, curly tail and mane, which were often connected with the chest or back, with prominent eyes and fangs.
The more popular shape is that there are one or two horns on the head, long manes are rolled all over the body, some have wings and curly tail hair. Jade carvings are generally prone, some with jade money in their mouths and some lying on jade money. People like to tie jade money in their mouths with red lines, or tie ropes to the tails of animals to play with.
