The dragon symbolizes power, wisdom, good health, good luck and prosperity. The dragon is also a symbol of imperial authority and national pride among the Chinese. The phoenix or fenghuang, shows peace, prosperity, harmony, and virtue. It is also a symbol of transformation, renewal, and resurrection. In Chinese culture, the doughnut shape is a symbol of eternity, wholeness, and harmony. The circular shape of the doughnut represents completeness and perfection, while the hole in the center represents the concept of emptiness or nothingness, which is also an important idea in Chinese philosophy. This shape helps to balance energy, promote inner peace, and protect one from negative influences.
