2015: A Retrospection

Well, this year was a pretty great year for me.  Seeing as it’s the end of the year, I thought I’d go over some of the dragon-related things that happened to me this year.

Wondering About Knowing Who I Am

Last night, I had a dream where my dragon guide told me that it is time to know who I am.  This didn’t surprise me at all, seeing as the recent dreams that I’ve had about my dragon guide have more often than not consisted of my dragon guide telling me that it is time to know who I am.

However, this made me wonder about something that didn’t cross my mind before.  By telling me that it is time to know who I am, does my dragon guide mean that I should decide what I want to do in life and decide who I want to be in life, as opposed to not knowing exactly what I want to do in life and not knowing exactly who I want to be in life?  I don’t know at the moment, but I hope that I will find out the answer to this question in time.

A Few Things I Won't Reveal

If there are a few things that I won’t reveal on this blog anytime soon – if at all – they’re the following things:  the name of my dragon guide, the name of my centaur guide (I plan on mentioning him in at least one more entry on this blog), and the name that my dragon guide and my centaur guide always call me by in the dreams that I have about them.

Why won’t I reveal these things on this blog?  It’s because these things are rather personal to me.  I used to reveal them quite a bit when I was asked about them at first, but now I’ve become more careful about revealing them because my intuition has told me to.

Am I not going to reveal these things on this blog because I believe that names have power?  No.  I don’t really believe that names have power, even though a few people have told me that names have power.  While I understand that words can have power (seeing as poetry is the main thing that I write as an aspiring writer) – as much power as you give them – I can’t really say the same for names.

A Different Feeling

When I watched How to Train Your Dragon 2 for the first time last year, I didn’t have much thought about the part during Hiccup and Toothless’s first onscreen flight where Toothless fires a few plasma blasts and Hiccup glides above them in his flightsuit.  However, a while after I watched it for the third time, I couldn’t help but feel a little bit sad about that part because of Stoick’s death.

A Not-So-Surprising Dragon Dream

First off, I’m sorry that I haven’t posted any entries in quite a while.  I’ve been rather busy with other things in life.

Anyways, this morning, I had a dragon dream that really didn’t surprise me.

In this dream, I was standing in a stone area.  My dragon guide was in front of me while a male centaur (who had long white hair, blue eyes, and the lower body of a white horse) was standing behind me.  My dragon guide put one of his talons underneath my chin and the centaur calmly put his hands on my shoulders.  My dragon guide and the centaur then told me to be thankful that they are my guardians.  Suddenly, out of nowhere, a red Western dragon appeared to my right.  I turned my head to the right as best as I could and looked at the red dragon.  The red dragon looked at me and told me to be thankful that he is a friend of my dragon guide.

What is it about this dragon dream that really didn’t surprise me?  It’s the fact that it consisted of me being told to be thankful for certain things, considering that today is Thanksgiving.

Now, you may be wondering who the male centaur and the red Western dragon that appeared in this dream are.  Well, I’ll explain that below.

The male centaur that appeared in this dream is another guide of mine that appears in my dreams.  Like my dragon guide, he started appearing in my dreams literally out of nowhere – and I had my first dream about him almost one year after I had my first dream about my dragon guide.  He always calls me by the name that my dragon guide always calls me by in my dreams and his personality is similar to my dragon guide’s personality (mainly in the sense that he’s trying to guide me towards finding who I am and knowing myself as well as I can like my dragon guide is).  He has appeared in some of the dreams that I’ve had about my dragon guide as well.  Up until now, I didn’t mention him in this blog at all because I felt that mentioning him in this blog would be trivial with regards to what this blog is about (and at the moment, I don’t know if I’m going to mention him on this blog again or not).

The red Western dragon that appeared in this dream is a male dragon that claims to be a friend of my dragon guide (which is something that my dragon guide has neither confirmed nor denied as of this writing).  He started appearing in my dreams literally out of nowhere (and a little while after I started having dreams about my dragon guide), but he hasn’t appeared in my dreams very often.  He always calls me by the name that my dragon guide always calls me by in my dreams, but his personality isn’t really like my dragon guide’s personality (in the sense that he’s not trying to guide me towards finding who I am and knowing myself as well as I can, anyways).

With that aside, am I thankful that my dragon guide and my centaur guide are my guardians?  Yes, but at the same time, it’s something that I have yet to fully understand.

Am I thankful that the red dragon is a friend of my dragon guide?  It’s honestly hard for me to say at the moment.

On a final note, happy Thanksgiving to those who are celebrating it!

A Somewhat Strange Dragon Dream

A while ago, I had a dragon dream that I thought was somewhat strange.

In this dream, I was on a cliff and a gold Western dragon was in front of me.  The dragon looked at me and then called me by the name that my dragon guide always calls me by in my dreams.

What is it about this dream that I find to be somewhat strange?  It’s the fact that a gold Western dragon that has never appeared in my dreams before called me by the name that my dragon guide always calls me by in my dreams.

Even though I think that this dream is somewhat strange, I think of it as just a dream and nothing more.  Maybe time will tell if I have another dream like this about this dragon or not.

Six Years

I find it hard to believe that today marks the six-year anniversary of me having dreams about my dragon guide; much time has passed since I had my first dream about my dragon guide.  So, I thought I’d make an entry about my reflections on it.

What have I learned in these six years of having dreams about my dragon guide?  I’ve learned that I’m still a wanderer in the journey of life.  There are things about me that I’m not sure if I know for sure or not – and there are things about me that I feel I still have yet to know and haven’t gotten close to beginning to know.  I’m still trying to find who I am with regards to several things – and without much knowledge or ideas of what those things really are.

What have I come to feel about my dragon guide in these six years of having dreams about him?  I’ve come to feel that he seems to be trying to guide me towards finding who I am and knowing myself as well as I can, while at the same time, he is wanting me to discover those things myself rather than rely on him to reveal those things.  I’ve also come to feel that he prefers to keep his cards close to his chest regarding what he tells me in the dreams that I have about him; he doesn’t tell me much at once and his answers to my questions only leave me with more questions.

Have my feelings about the dreams that I’ve had about my dragon guide changed over these six years?  Somewhat.  At the beginning, I felt that they were dreams that were good but confusing at the same time.  As I started having more of them over time, I came to feel that some of them (the ones where I’ve ridden my dragon guide in particular) were awesome.  I also came to feel that some of them were encouraging me to look at and question things that I didn’t really look at and question before (such as, but not limited to, who I really am).  Now, I feel that they’ve been good but confusing at the same time, awesome on occasion, and sometimes encouraging (with regards to self-discovery).

Have my feelings about having dreams about my dragon guide changed over these six years?  Somewhat.  At the beginning, I felt rather confused about the dreams that I had about my dragon guide.  Now, I feel thankful that I have dreams about my dragon guide, though I’m still confused about them.

So, those are pretty much my reflections on having dreams about my dragon guide for six years now.  What could the next year of having dreams about my dragon guide be like?  It’s hard to say, but I won’t be surprised if it’s more of what it already has been – and I won’t be surprised if there will be a few new things in it as well.
