This is because the "fish" and "yu" sounds of the goldfish are the same, so it has the meaning of "more than one year in a row" and "more auspicious celebration", which means that every year is getting better and better, and each section is better than the other. The golden color of the goldfish also symbolizes wealth, so the goldfish is also a representative of wealth and auspiciousness.

This is because there is a species of goldfish called "Red Tiger Head Ball", which is also called "Shou Planet" because of its high convex head that resembles a birthday star. Shou Xing is the god of longevity, and those who are blessed by Shou Xing can live a long and healthy life, so the goldfish also means and symbolizes the good fortune star and longevity. In China, people often give a pot of goldfish or a portrait of a longevity planet at the birthday or birthday banquet of the elders, which means and symbolizes the blessing of health, longevity and longevity.
Again, the goldfish symbolizes and symbolizes the prosperity of the children and grandchildren. This is because "goldfish" and "goldfish" have the same sound, which means that the golden and jade are full of soup (goldfish full pond), which means and symbolizes the full hall of descendants; On the other hand, in traditional Chinese folk culture, "gold" is often used as a metaphor for girls, and "jade" is used as a metaphor for boys. In China, people often place some goldfish or give a painting of a goldfish at the time of wedding or childbirth, as a metaphor and symbol to wish the newlyweds or newborns happiness and prosperity of their offspring.
Finally, the goldfish symbolizes peace, friendship and friendship.

At the beginning of the 16th century, China introduced goldfish to Japan, Thailand, Southeast Asia, Europe and the United States, as a "token" of China's friendly diplomatic relations. Goldfish are deeply loved by people all over the world, strengthen the ties and exchanges between China and other countries in the world, and contribute to China's international friendly development, so goldfish has also become a symbol of peace and friendship, implying that friendship lasts forever.
