History
In Chinese culture, 8 is considered by many to be the luckiest number. This is partly because the Chinese word for 8, Ba, sounds very much like Fa, which means wealth and prosperity. The dragon is also considered very auspicious in Eastern traditions. In fact, there are numerous temples spread across China designed specifically for dragon worship. In ancient times, it was common to beseech the dragon for a healthy crop since these creatures were known to control the weather.
