What does "Kirin to send the old" mean?

The unicorn sends the old, that is, a son dies in retirement, and chooses soil before stepping on it. People often make the longevity lock worn by children into a unicorn shape with all silver, which induces auspicious dreams to follow, in order to be lucky.

Let's learn about Kirin: 1. Kirin is a traditional auspicious beast in ancient Han myths and legends in China, with a gentle temperament and a legendary life span of more than two thousand years. The ancients believed that wherever Kirin haunts, there must be auspicious signs. Sometimes it is used to describe people with outstanding talents and both ability and political integrity.

2. People call Kirin, Qinglong, White Tiger, Suzaku and Xuanwu the five auspicious beasts, but they are actually not Kirin, but Huanglong. The ancients called males Qi and females Lin. Kirin, an ancient benevolent beast, is an auspicious treasure, which combines a dragon's head, antlers, lion's eyes, tiger's back, bear's waist, snake scales, horseshoes and oxtail. It has been used as a decoration in court since ancient times to boost official prestige and is also a symbol of dignitaries.

3、? The ancients thought that dragons represented gods, heaven, emperors and courtship, so dragons were gradually monopolized by the royal family. And the phoenix also has the meaning of being wise, tuning, and ambition. Therefore, the people take Kirin and Xuanwu as their mascots and spread them widely.
