They are often depicted with antlers or single horns (but not necessarily), which may be how they came to be referred to as Chinese unicorns (most Taoist practitioners would, however, consider this a translation misnomer). The appearance of a qilin is said to prognosticate the rise or fall of a leader, the coming or passing of a great sage, or in one s personal life as an omen, the portending of a dynamic spiritual or mystical shift.
