What does cotton carp mean?

Carp is one of the most representative patterns in traditional tattoos. At first, it was a very popular auspicious animal in Asian countries. The symbol carp has many meanings, because the pronunciation of "fish" is homophonic with "fish", which means there will be a balance. The pronunciation of "carp" is the same as "profit", so carp is also used to symbolize income and profit in business. The traditional New Year's Eve dinner in China must have fish, which also means that the family will have good luck in the coming year. I hope that a year's business can save money like running water. Not only that, fish is also widely used to explain the theory of Feng Shui, which can make a fortune and avoid disasters.

The general painting method is to match the fish's body with the faucet, which is called aojiang. Otherwise it will still be carp. Therefore, "yue longmen carp" is often used to describe a person who has finally changed his position, achieved success and created a miracle through unremitting efforts and struggles.
