The symbolic meaning of lotus

The symbolic meaning of lotus

1. Praise beautiful women

In ancient China, many poems with lotus as a symbol can be found. In "Guofeng·Chenfeng·Zebei", it says "On the bank of the lake, there are cattails and lotus. There is a beautiful woman, how sad she is? She can't sleep or sleep, with tears streaming down her face." The lotus here refers to a woman with a beautiful face.

2. Symbolizes love

The lotus is also known as the lotus flower. Because the twin lotus flowers and the lotus root silk are inseparable, they are often used to express the lingering love, and "twin lotus flowers blooming" is used to metaphorize the lingering love. In addition, it is homophonic with the Chinese character “和” (harmony), so people often see paintings of the “Two Immortals of Harmony and Harmony” to pray for perfect love.

3. Noble sentiments

In "On the Love of Lotus", the author expressed the noble temperament of the lotus as "standing tall and clean, to be admired from afar but not to be played with." Qinglian is homophonic with “qinglian” (integrity), so it can be used to describe an official who is honest and incorruptible. For example, if Qinglian and Bailu are drawn in a painting, it means “honest all the way”.
