Success
and wealth – that is what the seemingly ordinary carp brings.
From the legends of the dragon gates to the phonetics of
the fish that brings the meaning of great wealth, the carp
plays an important role in Chinese traditions to bring good
fortune and happiness.
A popular legend of the carps goes like this : Once every
year, all the carps in the world would gather at the Yellow
River for a competition. This is not just any competition
– those who win it would have a life full of honor and luxury,
in the form of a dragon. To win the competition, the carps
must jump over a gate, called the Dragon Gates. Those who
are successful would be transformed into a mighty dragon
and fly to the sky. Those who failed would return the following
year, and the years after to try again. Hence carps are
symbols of perseverance and success. This is especially
useful for those seeking academic success.
