    Notes For the samurai, the dragon is the embodiment of mastered power. A celestial creature linked to water, clouds and the breath of life, it symbolizes a fluid force, capable of adapting without ever breaking. Unlike the destructive monster, the Japanese dragon is a guardian of balance, combining wisdom, courage and spiritual authority. For the samurai, he represents the ideal of the accomplished warrior: dominating his violence to act with lucidity and honor.
