WHAT DOES THE DRAGON MEAN?
"People think only the light gives us strength, when in fact our strength comes from the ability to see in the dark."Â
In the Eastern cultures, the Dragon symbolises success, good fortune, protection. In the culture I grew up in - Transylvania - our stories depict the Dragon as something to fear, at first.
We are introduced to the heroes journey at a very young age from the stories we are told and those we read. It goes something like this....The seemingly weak hero meets the Dragon, cuts of his head, only to realise that 7 others grow back in it's place. The fight is pointless.
Transformation happens once the hero decides to meet the Dragon and not fight it. It's an extremely frightening experience and the Dragon isn't exactly the welcoming party, but in this encounter something happens: either the dragon  transforms into a horse and becomes a companion to the hero, transporting him to places he couldn't have reached on his own, or the Dragon allows the hero to enter his guarded cave which is full of treasures.
WHY WE SHOULD ALL MEET OUR DRAGONS AT SOME POINT IN LIFE
There is an interconnected system of values based on which we work and live, and in all of these aspects there has to be room for meeting parts of ourselves, which are maybe ugly.
We do this, so we can reintegrate them and stop them, because they represent the source of our destructive behaviours. However, once integrated, they represent abundant resources available for us at any time.
We speak about the importance of heightening our awareness of the self and our environment so we can meet others and ourselves in our current, unfiltered reality and build strength with clarity.
There is an abundance of treasures hidden behind our dragons.Â
