Attracting Companion Dragons
If you have spoken to others about dragon magick you might have noticed that some talk about their dragon companions, guardians, teachers, or helpers.
It is not necessary to have a companion to practice dragon magick, nor should you feel you shouldn’t follow this path just because you don’t have one. But, that said, I know from experience and from talking to others that companions do help to raise energy, are normally very happy to join in rituals and really enjoy the company of a dragon mage.
The idea of having little dragon companions whilst on earth never occurred to me until Kitana and Kira showed up. They are my two companions and accompany me nearly everywhere. Although I didn’t do anything to attract them, they assure me there are ways for people to attract them into their lives. They also said there are lots of dragons waiting in the astral realms who are willing to work with humans or, in my case, dragons who are currently humans.
I will tell you now, however, that you cannot force a dragon to befriend you, nor can you chose what your companion will look like or what their personality will be. All you can really do is invite dragons into your life and make them feel welcome. The dragons chose who they work with rather than the other way around. If you have been interested in dragons for a while and have collected some dragon images, toys, statues etc., there is a chance that there is already a dragon or two hanging around your room or house.
Beside images of themselves and their kin, I have found dragons also like gemstones, crystals, beads, bells, and anything bright and shiny they can play with. Quite a few companion dragons have very childish natures, especially the younger ones. With no offense to the dragons, but they do have a wonderful way at looking at life and I think the world would be a much nice place if we could all be childish from time to time and not so serious!
Another way to attract them is to project loving, welcoming thoughts whenever doing anything dragon related (such as reading this essay!). Surfing the internet for dragon sites, dusting your dragon statues, reading a book about dragons are all other times you can use this method. Remember you cannot fool dragons by projecting false thought as they will see right through you.
Inviting a Companion Dragon
This is a little ritual you can try if you really wish to invite dragons into your life. It has been written by myself with the aid of Kit and Kira.
Choose a time when you will not be disturbed, disconnect the phone, if possible disconnect the doorbell. Being interrupted during any ritual is really annoying and can cause for energy to be lost.
Sit cross legged on the floor and imagine and stress or worry flowing out of you and through the floor (or into the ground if you are doing this outside). Once you feel that it has all drained out of your body, imagine a protective bubble forming around you. One of the easiest ways to do this is to imagine a small bubble just in front of your chest then let it expand to surround you. You might not be able to see this bubble, especially if its the first time of using it, but know that it is there protecting you.
The next step is to invite a dragon to be your companion. Mentally project the desire to contact and make friends with a dragon. Be confident but don’t shout your intention. Then either in your mind or out loud say this, or something similar, “I am (name), I walk the path of dragons. In love, trust, and friendship I invite you into my life and into my home.” Add anything else you wish to say and keep projecting welcoming thoughts.
Don’t expect to feel a companion right away, it can take quite a while before they feel you are ready for them. Sit for a while longer incase they do wish to make their presence known. If you wish to keep the protective bubble around you imagine new energy flowing though it and the old energy going back into the ground. Then you can slowly get up and carry on as normal. You can repeat this ritual as you like until you feel the dragons are in your life.
