The historic mythology of the Compass
At the soul of Chinese mythology are four celestial emblems each said to guard a direction on the compass. These symbols are spiritual creatures, with each corresponding to a season, colour, element, virtue and other traits. Legends that surround the celestial heavens link each beast to a unique seven-star constellation.
Four guardians of the four compass directions
In China, the four guardians of the four compass directions date way back to at least the 2nd century BC. The Turtle is the emblem of the North, the symbol of longevity and wisdom. The turtle’s shell represents the vault of the universe.
The Dragon is the emblem of the East and corresponds to Spring.
For the South, the spiritual emblem is the Phoenix or Red Bird, associated with Summer, fire, and carrying sentiments of knowledge and good fortune.
And finally the Guardian of the West, the White Tiger, observing the world with clairvoyance, symbolic of the virtue righteousness.
