Dragon, a symbol of strength, but not only 🐲

The last symbol of strength: the dragon. In literature, cinema and mythology, it is sometimes the embodiment of evil, sometimes an animal close to man. I must say that for thousands of years there have been legends about him. Here are the symbols of the dragon :

  • In western traditions the dragon symbolizes strength and evil ... He spews fire, frightens the population and kills them. In Christianity it is a metaphor for Satan.
  • Quetzalcoatl , an Aztec feathered serpent, often called a dragon, personifies physical strength ... But this is not considered negative.
  • In Asia, dragons are animal powers, associated with the forces of nature ... They are revered. Political forces use it as an emblem.
