"Dragon" pendant made of bone
Carved ornamental pendant made of white bone.
The dragon has wide-spread wings and an intertwined tail.
The dragon appears in many cultures and, with its magic and power, is considered one of the strongest power animals.
In many fairy tales, sagas, and legends, it is the legendary mythical creature par excellence.
On the one hand, the dragon is a human-friendly protector/guardian and good luck charm; on the other hand, it is considered the cruel, fire-breathing monster and beast that must be defeated.
The Dragon in the World of Myths and Legends
Western dragons differ significantly from their Eastern counterparts. Legends from European countries portray dragons as giant winged fire-breathing creatures, mostly feared by humans. Many stories, myths, and legends tell of men who fight dragons, overcome them, and then gain access to the riches hidden in the dragon's cave! The epic hero Beowulf is just one example of someone who tried to fight a dragon guarding treasures - Beowulf was defeated in battle and killed. The defining characteristic of a Western dragon symbol is that it represents the epitome of "power."
As a guardian and ruler over the 4 elements of fire, water, air, and earth, the dragon is the embodiment of natural forces. Its power should not be directed against its human soulmate, but rather help them to reorder/sort and overcome inner turmoil and chaos. It is said to give its soulmate energy and drive, as well as courage to keep going - even when it often seems hopeless.
The soul partnership with the dragon helps to understand nature and the interconnectedness of the elements fire, water, air, and earth, with which we are connected.
Let us be enveloped by these forces of nature - with all their powers.
As a power animal, the dragon brings us energy and drive that flows through our lives. The dragon inspires our imagination, while also keeping us firmly grounded and in reality.
Characterized by strength and balance, the dragon embodies the good luck charm - but at the same time, it is also a defensive power animal that, with the energy of the four elements, can also be destructive.
