Dragons




Signs are all around us, and at times of pilgrimage they can be especially potent and meaningful for us on a personal level.

Dragons are likely to appear at any time - as telluric energy at places of power, or in stained glass or stone in churches and sacred sites.

"Killing the dragon is a feat attributed to many gods, saints and heroes, and it occurs as a symbol in the language of alchemy, from which the christian symbol of St Michael and the dragon was developed. In such a context it signifies the purification of theearth spirit, and the removal of its serpent venom by means of a pole or pillar planted in the ground and serving as an instrument of cosmic and terrestrial forces." The Earth Spirit, John Michell

Adrian Calabrese, in Sacred Signs encourages us to "Hear, See and Believe" the messages which we receive from the Universe.
