chinese mythology and rainbows
Chinese mythology refers to the collection of stories, beliefs, and legends rooted in ancient Chinese culture and folklore. It encompasses various deities, heroes, and creatures, often associated with moral teachings, creation myths, and explanations of natural phenomena. Rainbows, on the other hand, are meteorological optical phenomena appearing as multicolored arcs in the sky caused by the refraction, reflection, and dispersion of light through water droplets. In Chinese mythology, rainbows hold significance as symbols of luck, divine communication, and bridges between heavens and earth.
