...One is based off an ancient Chinese creation myth about a goddess (Nu Kwa)who had, in the course of a divine war with rival deities damaged one of the "pillars" holding up the sky,causing water to pour from it onto the land and the horizon to become
lopsided.In order to stabalized things,she rebuilt the square-like "pillar" using colored stones that shone in the night sky,and placed four guardians in each corner of it,in order to keep it from collapsing.Another explanation concentrates thêm on the "time" application of the Four Gods formation.The moon's orbit was used bởi the ancient Chinese to measure the passing of seasons, each season represented bởi a guardian in the sky. It was believed that the moon passed one of the constellations ("seishuku")every few days,and that it took the passing of all 28 constellations to complete a full orbit of the moon,and therefore all the seasons.Each season was thus represented bởi the four guardians deities mentioned before.
