Here Be Dragons!

Welcome to Dragon Dreaming — my collection of information, illustrations, dreams, meditations, magic …whatever… about dragons. It’s a work in progress, and probably always will be, as my ideas about exactly what to add here keep evolving.

There’s some information and ideas that I’d love to be able to include here, but really shouldn’t out of respect for the Dragons, as they don’t like to have certain things divulged to all and sundry. As with any close personal relationship trust has to be maintained and some things just shouldn’t be shared …or someone could end up seriously burned!

Through the Scrying Bowl

The southern hemisphere Samhain is very close now and the veils are thinning. I attended a weekend retreat with my Dark Moon circle, held over the last 2 1/2 days. On the night of the Full Moon in Scorpio, with a partial lunar eclipse — 26th April — we called in the Dragons to bless, cleanse and sanctify our circle

Messages from the Dragon Realm

This afternoon I randomly Googled a few search terms for info about Dragons, as I sometimes do.

From Water into Spirit

I attended our group’s “Dragon of Water Attunement” as we moved from a “water year” into a “spirit year”. Previous attunements held have been Fire in January 2012 (I didn’t write about this one), Air in January 2011 and Earth in January 2010. These previous blogs contain more background information about what our ” Dragon attunements” entail so please read those if you want more details. Our group’s next attunement, to be held in January 2014 will be for Spirit. This will conclude the initial 5 year plan of learning and initiation for our group which was announced by the Dragons in October 2008 and then the cycle will begin again with 2014 being an Earth year, 2015 an Air year, Fire in 2016, Water in 2017, Spirit in 2018 and so on.

The Dragon Ghost Gods

The following is a chapter from…

HAWAIIAN LEGENDS OF GHOSTS and GHOST-GODS

collected and translated from the Hawaiian

by W. D. WESTERVELT

Boston, Ellis Press [1916]

(from sacred-texts.com/pac/hlog/index.htm and sacred-texts.com/pac/hlog/hlog28.htm)

THE DRAGON GHOST-GODS

Dragons were among the ghost-gods of the ancient Hawaiians. These dragons were called mo-o. The New Zealanders used the same names for some of their large reptile gods. They, however, spelled the word with a “k,” calling it mo-ko, and it was almost identical in pronunciation as in meaning with the Hawaiian name. Both the Hawaiians and New Zealanders called all kinds of lizards mo-o or mo-ko; and their use of this word in traditions showed that they often had in mind animals like crocodiles and alligators, and sometimes they referred the name to any monster of great mythical powers belonging to a man-destroying class.

2012 in review

The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2012 annual report for this blog.

Here’s an excerpt:

19,000 people fit into the new Barclays Center to see Jay-Z perform. This blog was viewed about 71,000 times in 2012. If it were a concert at the Barclays Center, it would take about 4 sold-out performances for that many people to see it.

The Dragon Way

Going through strange times at the moment with all the hype about 21st December 2012 (which is tomorrow) so of course I’ve been browsing the internet looking for “interesting stuff” about Dragons. I can’t remember the exact sequence of search terms or which links I followed to another and another but I eventually came across a website called The Dragon Mystery School. They have a book called “The Dragon Way: Opening the Door to Spiritual Mastery Book One – The Preparation” by Jean Eilerman and Christin Kostoff, which looked interesting, so I decided to buy it. I probably buy way too many books — I still have many waiting to be read — but I figured one more couldn’t hurt. Here’s a small excerpt from the introduction…

Dragon Power

[The following information was written by Alexis and is copied from transferencehealing.com/channellings/index/827/6/channellings/dragon-power]

It’s time to own the power of the Dragon within

The Dragon Power Symbol is a symbol of ‘empowerment’ in Transference Healing®. It revitalises the power centre to enable the body to energetically re-nourish and heal. It also protects us against direct psychic attack and counteracts negative feelings or projections against us. It supports us to overcome the limitations of the ego and connect to ‘Divine Will’. It is the lost symbol or key to the Elemental Kingdoms of the Dragon.

Confusing Musing

The clear fountain is there, at the top of my head, infinity accessed through random impulse. Go with the flow, let the connection begin and remain as long as possible. No thinking, only feeling. Follow the lead and trust.

My Water Dragon Mask

I recently spent a very enjoyable time at my group’s “Beltane Medieval Weekend” where we made our Water Dragon masks. For those of you who are wondering about the date, yes October/November is Beltane in the southern hemisphere,
