Dragon Turtle: The Auspicious Guardian That Carries Blessings Across Centuries
Hello friends, today I want to tell you a story about the Dragon Turtle. You might see its statues in old temples or as small crystal charms in people’s homes. It is everywhere! But where did it come from, and why do so many families love it? Let’s go back to a very old legend.
A long, long time ago, huge floods covered the land, and many people lost their homes. A hero named Da Yu was trying to fix the rivers. Luckily, a Dragon Turtle came to help him. This magical creature was very kind and strong. It worked very hard to move the water away and save the people. After the work was done, the people wanted to say thank you. They carved the story of the Dragon Turtle's hard work onto a big stone tablet. The Dragon Turtle was so happy that it carried the heavy stone on its back and traveled everywhere so everyone would know the story. Since then, it has been a lucky helper that protects our world.
In the old days, it looked more like a normal turtle. But as time went by, it started to look more like a dragon. By the time of the Ming and Qing dynasties, it finally became what we see now: a brave dragon’s head on a strong turtle’s body. This means it has both the power of a dragon and the steady heart of a turtle.
In our culture, the Dragon Turtle stands for a long life and never giving up. Even with a heavy stone on its back, it keeps moving forward. This tells us that if we stay calm and keep working hard, we can also be successful and live a happy life. Having one at home can change the "vibe" of your house for the better. But remember, the best luck comes from your own heart. If you are a good person who works hard, the Dragon Turtle will help you even more.
So, what good things happen when you bring a Dragon Turtle home? First, it cleans the air and energy around you. It’s like an invisible shield that keeps bad things away, helping everyone stay healthy. It also brings in good luck for the whole family, especially if you want your children or grandchildren to grow up happy and strong.
If you want to attract more money, try putting your Dragon Turtle near some gold coins or ingots in your home. It helps your family save up wealth and keeps things running smoothly. And if you are having a "bad luck year" because of your stars, you can put one on your desk or by your bed. It will help make your year much easier and more peaceful.
However, there are a few simple rules to remember so your Dragon Turtle stays happy. Never, ever turn it upside down. If a turtle is on its back, it can’t get up, and your luck will get stuck too! If you have kids at home, tell them not to flip it over for fun.
When you want to pet your Dragon Turtle, always stroke it from its head down to its tail. Never rub it the wrong way, or it might get grumpy and mess up the energy. Finally, it is your family's special friend. It’s okay for you to touch it, but try not to let strangers or visitors play with it. You want its protective power to focus only on you and your family.
