Wow, Laura, thank you so much for all this wonderful dragon wisdom! The very first spirit guide that I met is a dragon. In fact, I love the image that we each have within us the intertwining serpents of fire and water (like the Caduceus) and we are the Aleph, the air, reconciling them. Oh my gosh, and The Neverending Story is one of my all time faves!

Jenna! Thank you so much for taking the time to read! I love this image! Especially as brings together the elements and reminds us of as within so without in a very practical and nature based way! Love that you know and appreciate the neverending story - have you ever read Momo from Ende? No dragons in there but as deep in meaning!

Oooooh, I have not read Momo, but I just looked it up and am very intrigued! A story about time thieves? Yes please! Thank you for pointing me in that direction. 🤗

It is about time and how we are made believe we have to be productive and are lured into a curse of forgetting our true nature - and the little orphan girl momo sets out to save her loved ones with her magical turtle cassiopaia :)

Are there any children’s books about dragons you have found that supports this empowering narrative of them? X

Wow this was an amazing exploration of the dragon. I have already noticed that my children have an interesting relationship with the concept of dragons in stories but we visited a beautiful garden with animals today and they were thrilled by the snakes, monitor lizard, iguanas! So much magic in your words and stories you tell, thank you for reframing the so often maligned dragon in such an empowering way xx
