7 Spiritual Meanings of the Dragon — Amanda Linette Meder



1 – Luck and prosperity are on your side

In Chinese Mythology, there are believed to be 9 dragons that guard the palaces in the sky. They are the highest animal in the hierarchy of animals, representing happiness, good fortune and luck.

If dragons have been appearing to you in dreams, meditations or you have been drawn to them, this is a positive sign that you are favored and luck is on your side.

2 – Celestial life force and manifestation energies are available to you

Dragons can be a powerful symbol representing the energies of creation. Hindu beliefs also link the dragon to the elixir of immortality, soma.

When a dragon appears to you, it can be a sign that alchemical energies and elemental forces are on your side and it’s important to manifest intentionally and wisely.

3 – You have access to ancient wisdom and knowledge

Because of their ancient history in human culture and lore, dragons symbolize access to wisdom and knowledge accumulated through the millenia.

If you’re interested in tapping into information gathered through time, call upon a Dragon Spirit Animal to help you access this insight in the astral planes.

4 – Protection and guardianship is available and needed

In a variety of cultures, dragons are seen as watching over sacred sites.

Their spiritual presence can be a reminder that you can call on dragons for this purpose or that you need to take on dragon-like qualities in your life: safeguarding your most cherished values and valuables, protecting those and that which you love, and maintaining a sense of vigilance in the face of challenges.

5 – A time of slaying dragons

Dragons appearing in your life can represent the need to “slay dragons,” in your life. Dragons can often symbolize negative thoughts or the reptilian mind. They can also represent big challenges that are standing in your way and need to be overcome.

When dragons appear in your consciousness, consider any dragons you may need to slay in your current situation in order to move forward with your journey.

6 – A period of purification, renewal and transformation

Dragons breathe fire and are associated with the fire element. Fire can be destructive, but it can also bring cleansing, change and regeneration. Dragon energy is excellent for cathartic release, closure, and dissolving the past’s stagnation to grow into new directions.

If a dragon appears to you, it can be a sign that change is underway and you are poised for a transformative journey into a new way of being.

7 – Taming your Inner Dragon would be beneficial

Dragons can represent the inner fire, or Kundalini Life Force Energy within us all. When a dragon appears to you, it can be an invitation to tame, get to know and work with your own internal fire energies of passion and creation to bring forward new inspiration. 

To begin working with the dragon within, you must be ready to accept responsibility for your actions, your emotions and your life. Calling in dragon energy can be a great way to cultivate the power of courage, standing up for yourself, self discipline and inner strength.
