Dragons are often represented in art, legend, and religious symbolism, signifying things like power, good fortune, and protection.

They are said to live in the ocean and have the ability to bring about both good and bad weather, making them symbols of both natural and spiritual protection. Buddhist practitioners look to dragons for protection and blessings, and they are frequently invoked in rites and rituals to promote well-being and favorable conditions for spiritual development.
