What are the laws that govern the foundations of the universe? And what mysteries pass us by, day after day, perceived yet unknown and unseen by mere mortals like ourselves? The truth is deeper than we may ever grasp, but let us give names to the forces that we feel, that we might see the many shapes they take and better know them. In this episode, we look at the Four Constellations, a group of foundationally important symbols in the folklore and mythology of Mainland China: the Qing Dragon, the Vermillion Bird, the White Tiger, and the Black Tortoise. Join me, Jaer Christie, as I explore the hidden legends that shape the world on The Mythographist.   Written, narrated, and produced by Jaer Christie Research by Jaer Christie & Elena Tung   Music: "Dancing Abroad" by Shaoqing Luna Li via https://filmmusic.io/u/sqluna/music License (CC BY 4.0): https://filmmusic.io/standard-license "Orchid in Spring" by China National Orchestra, used under CC fair use.
