Historical Information

Zhu Que (Suzaku in Japanese) is one of the four symbols of the Chinese Constellations, representing the "Vermillion Bird of the South" and of the season of Summer. The other three symbols being the "Black Tortoise of the North" (see Genbu), the "White Tiger of the West" (see Byakko), and the "Azure Dragon of the East" (see Seiryu)

Each symbol corresponded to an element in the Five Element system, with Zhu Que corresponding to the element of fire. (In the Five Element system in China, there is a 5th legendary beast known as Huang Long, the Yellow Dragon of the Center. While there is no direct equivalent in Japanese, Huang Long is believed to be linked to the dragon Ouryu (see Ouryu)
