Draco
_AM: Look at him straight, and he will look back at you. Look closely into her eyes... What do you see?
_I: I see my own reflection… Expectant…
_AM: Who do you see?
_I: To myself…
_AM: But it's not you, because you observe yourself outside... You are still a reflection of yourself...
_I: How do I be able to unite and be a Unit?
_AM: You must pass through the Dragon's Eye.
_I: Who is the Dragon?
_AM: Come with me to meet him, and you will be able to remember yourself. Tell me what do you think the dragon is?
_I: It is a mythological creature, built from different parts of sacred animals. In Asia, the Dragon is a monster that, depending on which culture, is benevolent, such as Japan, and is fearsome for others, such as China. His body was formed from all the Totems of power: Snake, Tiger, Bat, Turtle, Peacock, Cow, Fish, Cat, Crane, and many others, which united their attributes to form a sacred being, the idyllic one, the God of totems. Throughout life, humans were supposed to incorporate attributes, qualities, of these totems, animals of power, symbols that gave us tools and stability, special abilities if we managed to gain the technique, with consciousness. And the great exam was to face the Dragon, the final exam that made us see if we were ready to obtain the prize, the treasure, what was hidden behind it under his protection. And it became an interesting symbol to talk about care, about protecting, being the emblem of sacred sites, such as sphinxes, beings of eternal wisdom that test those who appear before them. And the image of these creatures added attributes as cultures took them as their own, moving from Asia to the Mediterranean, and expanding into European cultures, where dragons became the mythological creature par excellence.
_AM: But precisely the term Dragon does not refer to this mythological creature.
_I:It does not?
_AM: Dragon comes from the conjugation of a Greek verb in aorist (it is a type of Indo-European conjugation that converts an action into a time, moment), the verb is “look carefully” = derkomai, which in aorist (indeterminate) is It says “drakein”, with which the adjective that defines that person who stares is called “drakon”. The Drakon, later called the Dragon, was basically the Guardian, the protector, custodian of something, the one who protects a place, looking steadily, attentively and clearly to identify everything that happens. He is the one who can see so directly that he not only contemplates the forms but he looks through you, to your soul and spirit. Thus, this concept was transferred to mythology, taking shape in all those people or creatures who took care of and monitored something or a place very well. With the introduction of legendary creatures that inhabit sacred sites where treasures are found, they began to be called “Dragons”, thus becoming these monsters recognized with this name of guardians.
_I: Wow, so the Dragon is the one who watches from a fixed gaze.
_AM: And for this reason, the ancients gave their name to the constellation that constantly watches over all the others = “Draco”. Its Latinized name hails one of the most important sites in the entire sky of the Northern Hemisphere: the Celestial North or North Pole of the Boreal Ecliptic.
_I: What does this mean?
_AM: Do you remember that the North Stars are defined based on the Earth's axis being dragged in a 26,000-year circle?
_I: Yes
_AM: Well, that circle in which the Earth rotates like a pendulum has a center, and that center is the Heart of Draco. That is to say, Draco, its heart, is the true physical axis of Heaven, the one that never changes, although from our point of view, the star Alpha Draconis indicates one of the sectors or polar stars, specifically the one that guided the Egyptians ago. 5000 years old, the heart of this constellation between Zeta and Delta Draconis is the true axis of the 26000 year old Polar Circle.
_I: Wow…
_AM: That is the Way of the Dragon. The one that begins at the exact North Pole, wrapping the Earth around its body and tail, ending at the South Pole...
_I: It is the path I must take at the end of this year 2021... From the North Pole to the South Pole, it is the Kundalini, and now I understand why he called it the Path of the Dragon!
_AM: The Dragon is a symbol that unites all potentials, that is, the chakras, the power centers, the sources of energy that you nourish with the consciousness of the spiritual mind, with the unconsciousness of the emotion of the soul, and the subconsciousness of the action of the body. Each chakra or energy wheel completes the Dragon circuit, uniting the emotional attributes of your being to activate its real potential. But the Dragon has a clear mission: to protect, guard, monitor the treasures that live in you, and he will protect them with all the weapons he has.
_I: In other words, one attacks oneself, one's own energy defends itself from our inability to manage.
_AM: The being itself has a defense mechanism, which in the Body you call the Immune System, in the Soul you call Trauma and in the Mind you call Belief. The three are there with the sole objective of taking care of your treasure, the fruits of knowledge... Those that grow on the Tree of Life...
_I: My fruits are the chakras, energies that grow in the tree of my genetics... And the Dragon, the Kundalini, protects them from my incoherence... Of course... It is the penultimate test of the hero, of Hercules: stealing the Apples from the Garden of Hesperides, and to do this, he must kill the Dragon that guards them.
_AM: The Apple Tree of golden apples, refers to knowledge or enlightened wisdom, of light made matter, fruit. The feathered serpent, that is, that being that emerges from the earth but flies through the air, describes the being that recognizes its subconscious history and uses the energy of the unconscious to fly quickly and freely in consciousness. That is, he uses apple seeds. The concept of “stealing” apples is not well described in that myth. In reality, stealing implies "collecting", and you do not have to kill the dragon, you have to know how to go through it, calm it so that it is asleep in harmony and awakens only to the command of consciousness. The Dragon is the vital energy, which if not well managed, destroys everything in its path. The dragon constantly defends itself, and therefore, when a being is close to obtaining one of those apples of consciousness and bringing light to its tree, the dragon activates its defense mechanism to protect itself through attitudes, emotions, ideas, reacting accordingly. of their traumas and beliefs. The dragon is benevolent protecting the essence of who we are, but it is fearsome defending our interior, even from ourselves.
_I: From our own stupidity.
_AM: One wrong move, and the dragon will pull out everything in its power to destroy you, preventing you from damaging your own essence. Like gargoyles in a cathedral, their demonic appearance has no purpose other than to defend you from yourself.
_I: Wow… I understand… And that's why we tend to fear him, we tend to put the image of that which must be defeated… Sant Jordi (Saint George, Saint George) and the Dragon…
_AM: The Knight who must face all his emotions, everything he does not know about himself, and who has to possess the willpower to face his own monsters. Well, the Earth rotates looking for a North, a purpose, looking around, as if avoiding the only truth. You can only find the Precious Gem, the Pearl, the Diamond, the Ruby... If you dare to look into the Dragon's eyes and pierce him.
_I: That's why I came here. I am in a Castle, from where I can see the Dragon on the mountain of Montserrat, knowing that in the next few days I will be sleeping in the town called Rubí…
_AM: Everything is aligned, then.
_I: Wow… No words. How should I face him?
_AM: Pass through his eye, on the day of the New Moon. Go from one dimension to the other, and begin again... A New Time.
_I: The Eye of the Dragon. There where I find myself... Where I join my reflection.
_AM: Where I and I am meet again. Just let me find you when I see that you have come to meet me.
_I: I move a piece so you can move yours...
_AM: Each thorn of the dragon is an emotion, and now that you understand it from the mind, it is time to explore them in your soul. The energy of your body has only been protecting you from your own ignorance... When you recognize it, you just have to stare at the Dragon and become it.
_I: Take responsibility for my own being, I will no longer need to be taken care of, I will take care of myself.
_AM: Only if you dare to look at him. The Kundalini of the World will not be able to light up if you do not light up first. You must traverse your own Path of the Dragon in order to traverse that of all Humanity. Remember, this time you must not steal the apples, but the only way you will become the hero is if you become your own guardian, the Dragon himself, and return the apples you have stolen back to the tree. life.
_I: How do I do that?
_AM: Become aware of each idea, emotion and attitude that you have decided to make your own in your life, and recognize from what necessity you have made them part of you when in reality they do not belong to you.
_I: Like believing that my personal purpose was to fall in love, when that is something that I try to reverse from my family, from my grandmother... And I have made it my own, following the same patterns... I must identify the things that I create, because I am creating them.
_AM: All of these are the fruits of your Tree that you have taken, and that your dragon recognizes that they do not belong to you, but that they belong to many others, and they are there for humanity. Each apple is a gift, a gift that constitutes personality, and that makes you who you are, but also imprisons you in what you hope to be.
_I: It is difficult to do this task…
_AM: But not impossible.
_I: And then what do I do?
_AM: Return with love these apples, this knowledge to your entire tree, looking into the eyes of the Dragon, without fear of losing or winning, honoring who you are.
_I: It is the same thing that I will do on the Camino from August to December 2021, return to the path of the Dragon what we have taken from it, what we have stolen from it, replant the Garden of the Hesperides.
_AM: And what you must do in your own being. So, for a moment stop moving and look at the true north axis. Feel the Heartbeat of the Dragon, and ignite the Ruby that lies within you.
_I: As the draconian master said in the temple of Sobek, in Kom Ombo: “Humans, you are a precious gem wrapped in shit”…
_AM: “…And only the shadows will be able to teach you how to see what is hidden beneath it.”
_I: Face the monsters, creatures that I myself have created, and there I will find my precious gem, the essence of my I Am...
_AM: Open your heart so that the shadows show you the beauty that you have covered in trash, allow them to tell you what aspects of yourself they are protecting you from.
_I: And so I will become one with my shadows and my lights... I will be able to see the center, and pass through the eyes of my being from right and left, and the eyes of the Earth, from north to south. Only in this way, in the beat of my heart, will I be able to become the beat of His.
_AM: Welcome to the Way of the Dragon.
