In Mine And Many Other East Asian Cultures, The Dragon Traditionally Symbolises Things Like Power, Wealth

In mine and many other east Asian cultures, the dragon traditionally symbolises things like power, wealth and strength (imperial symbol and all)

I think we often forget that in the story of the Great Race, the dragon came in fifth because it'd stopped to give people rain. Then it'd stopped again to push a rabbit adrift on a log across the wide river so it reached the shore safely (that's why the Rabbit year comes before the Dragon).

Dragons aren't meant to just be powerful - they are meant to do good with such power, and to help those in need.

So in this lunar new year, I hope you gain more power, so that you might be able to help others. I pray you have abundant resources so you may give to yourself and those around you. I wish you courage, endurance, kindness and generosity, for yourself and your people.

I hope you, and I, will be rain givers, life preservers, joy bringers.

I hope we will be dragons.

I hope everyone enjoys this little Crow Time update about the commonality of love! Even stars have travel buddies, that's what constellations are for.

If you like my work, do me a favor and donate a little to the PCRF to help children and families in Gaza. It's easy to do, kind to do, and do not feel guilty if you do not have much to give. Everything counts.

digital illustration of a hunched, humanoid monster between two trees with long hair, a large raven skull mask, and 17th century doublet sits down on a log delicately holding a handkerchief as the figure offer it to a woman swiping away her tears in the wood. The illustration is sandwiched between text that reads: She was sitting in the woodland—smashed flowers at her feet—heaving a sob when she heard the snap of a branch from beyond the trees. With a gasp, she spotted a looming figure with a grinning mask approach her, handkerchief in hand...

Sorry miss," croaked the beast, "I overheard the things he said—calling you heartless while acting so cruel.  You were just being truthful about your lack of romantic notions. If you need the company of a fellow heartless kin, I'd be happy to sit a while." 
 
To which she gave a teary grin with a nod.

to all my fellow heartless who lack romantic notions... happy valentines 🫀✨
