I was reading articles earlier, trying to think what to share for this day, until I came up with Sir @Mictorrani 's article Dragon's Blood. He started with the dragon itself, and blood to represent the color of red, until discuss his main topic about dragon plant - Daemonorops draco, Croton lechleri, and Dracaena draco, and so on. If you are interested you can read it here, while if you want to know more about dragons, just click that link he have mentioned, scroll down and you can find the topics.

For todays article, I am going to share about dragons. Yes, this information is not that much, but I hope you can learn something.

But first let me Flex to you my sponsors, one of those persons who guide and support me throughout my journey here. You guys can check them too:)

Have you watched the movie How To Train Your Dragon?

This was an animated movie, which the main focus is about dragons. I can say that this movie was full of love and action; perfect for kids at home.

Dragon is one of the famous Mythological creature in the world. This was known as a creature who has the ability to fly and breathes fire.

Although there is no exact evidence of dragon's existence, there are some conspiracy about this:

Dragon as from the Dinosaur

We all know that dinosaur existed and became extinct million years ago. Some people said that this dinosaurs are from dragons' egg. That because of evolution, those dragons turns to what we called dinosaur. If you are not the familiar about Evolution, this is a process when a matter change it's characteristics or appearance to be able to cope up with the changes of the surroundings.

There are also stories that people just misinterpret dinosaur's fossil as dragons.

Dragon as one of the Chinese zodiac sign

Did you know someone who was born in the year of the dragon? What can you say about his/her characteristics? Does it dangerous as the dragon that you know?

So if you're going to look on the Chinese zodiac signs, it's only the dragon which is the Mythical creature among others. For other counties, they may see this dragon as a bad luck or guardian of darkness; but for Chinese it is power, strength and luck.

Most Filipinos also believed about Feng Shui, that the color of red and the symbol of dragon is the best to use to welcome the New Year.

Beliefs from Ancestors

I have read the book "Dragons Galore", and there are some Myths about Dragons which was passed through generations.

According to the book;

People said, "Dragons had Stones", I don't know if you have seen photos of statue of a dragon that holds a stone through their mouth. Ancestors believed that this Stones helped them to fly, this was serve is their source of power.

People said, "Dragons did not like bugs" Do you like bugs? If not, this dragon myth can relate to you. They said that dragons don't like bugs because it can enter through the holes of their head; nose, ears. By this, those bugs can eat their brains.

People said, "Dragons' egg hatch after 3,000 years." Just like dinosaur and other animals that we know, dragons believed to lay egg and wait for a thousand of years before it was hatched. So long right?

At last, why I share these things about dragon was because although there is no exact evidence that they existed. There are stories about them, that our ancient ancestors have something to tell about them. Why? Because there's a possibility that they really saw this creature during their time. This is just my opinion, we may not know. Btw, Bible also mentioned "dragon" many times.
