Yang Energy:
In the traditional yin-yang philosophy, the dragon symbolizes the masculine element, yang, while the phoenix represents the feminine, yin.

Many benevolent Chinese dragons are connected to water and weather, with some believed to control winds and rain, bringing balance and nourishment.
