Blue Dragon Dance Qigong Lesson 1

Blue Dragon Dance Qigong. The Blue Dragon is a formidable image in Chinese culture. Also called the Azure or Green Dragon, the Blue Dragon is said to control all of Chinese astrology and is responsible for the movement of the stars. It represents the planet Jupiter, the eastern cardinal direction, and both the wood and water elements. The Blue Dragon is mysterious and free spirited, and yet it is also considered a reliable guardian and ready to help. To perform a dance that represents this force is most auspicious.

Due to the stretching movement in the form, which stimulate and dilate the meridians, numerous pressure points are activated and engaged. However, one particular point (Liver 3) is given special attention during the movement titled, “The Blue Dragon Touches Down.”
