What is the meaning of kites?

In the traditional China kites, such auspicious meanings can be seen everywhere: "Happy Birthday", "Dragon and Phoenix Becoming Lucky", "Butterfly in Spring", "Carp yue longmen", "Ma Gu's Birthday Offering", "A Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix" and "Fish Every Year", all of which show people's yearning and longing for a better life.

Auspicious patterns use figures, animals, flowers and birds, utensils and other images and some auspicious words, take folk proverbs, auspicious words and fairy stories as themes, and form an artistic form of "one auspicious word and one pattern" by means of metaphor, analogy, pun, symbol and homophonic expression, which endows people with the meaning of seeking good luck, avoiding disasters and taking refuge, and places their hopes on happiness, longevity and celebration.
