Happy New year! This year is the year of the dragon. Chinese dragon is a symbol of power, strength, and good luck. It stands for Yang. The dragon is highly respected in Chinese culture. It usually symbolizes power, nobility, honor, luck, and success. It is also a symbol of the Chinese nation, which is why Chinese people refer to themselves as descendants of the dragon.
