Breath of Spirit,
A journey with the Air Dragon.
Welcome,
My dear friend.
This is your time to pause,
To soften,
To return to the rhythm of your breath.
Gently close your eyes and let your body settle into stillness.
Let gravity hold you.
Let the breath guide you.
Inhale.
Fully.
And exhale,
Releasing the tension.
Feel the air move through you.
Not just your lungs,
But into your spirit.
This breath is ancient.
It has traveled across oceans and forests,
Through the lungs of wolves and whales,
And now it lives in you.
You are breathing with the world.
Just let that settle for a moment.
Being in this space,
Let us call in the Guardians,
And open a sacred circle held entirely by dragons.
To the east,
We call the Air Dragon,
Bringer of clarity,
Truth,
And inspiration.
Glide into this space of the winds of change,
And we welcome you.
To the south,
We summon the Fire Dragon,
Burner of illusions,
Igniter of courage and heart.
Rip this circle in light and transformation.
We welcome you.
To the west,
We call the Water Dragon,
Keeper of the soul,
Dreams,
And emotional healing.
Flow around us with grace and memory.
We welcome you.
To the north,
We invite the Earth Dragon,
Guardian of roots,
Stability,
And deep knowing.
Anchor this space with your wisdom and strength.
We welcome you.
Above us,
The Dragon of the Celestial Light,
Shining guardian of divine truth and higher vision.
Illuminate this circle from the stars.
We welcome you.
Below us,
The Dragon of the Deep,
Guardian of the unseen,
Of shadow,
Of sacred stillness.
Coil beneath us and hold this journey in safe silence.
We welcome you.
And in the center,
We now call the Air Dragon,
Your winged ally for today's journey.
Gentle,
Wise,
Ever-moving,
Ever-watching.
And this circle is cast.
You are held.
You are safe.
You are ready.
Feel a breeze stir around you.
It lifts your hair,
Your thoughts,
Your spirit.
The shimmering form begins to take shape.
Feathered with clouds and silver and translucent,
A great Air Dragon gliding silently towards you.
It lands before you with grace.
It bows to you.
And you bow back in return.
And take a breath.
And follow the invitation to climb onto its back,
Gently,
Without fear.
This Dragon knows where you're going,
Even if you don't get it.
With one great breath,
It lifts you into the sky,
And you rise.
Below you,
The worries grow smaller.
The noise quiets.
Only the wind remains.
And as you soar through the cloud in the sky,
The Dragon's breath begins to move through your mind,
Clearing the fog,
Lifting the old beliefs,
And making space.
You feel a thought loosening,
Something no longer true.
Let it go.
Let the wind take it.
And now breathe into your throat and chest.
This is where your voice lives.
Let the Dragon's breath move through you,
Feeling the truth that waits there.
You hear the Dragon's speech.
Maybe not in words,
But maybe in sensations.
Maybe in pictures,
Or an inner knowing.
Maybe you pick up your own message.
Something like,
You are not lost.
You are in motion.
You fly farther and further now,
Through winds of inspiration,
And let yourself rise.
While you fly over rivers of forgotten dreams,
Through valleys of vision.
What is the gift the Air Dragon places in your heart?
And let it settle into you.
Let it root into your breath.
And the Dragon begins to move.
Begins to descend,
Circling gently downward.
Back to your sacred space.
Back to Earth.
You step down with reference.
Your heart is lighter.
Your mind is clearer.
Just take a moment to thank the Air Dragon,
For its grace,
Its guidance,
And its breath.
One by one,
Think each Dragon Guardian.
The Earth Dragon of the North.
The Water Dragon of the West.
The Fire Dragon of the South.
The Air Dragon of the East.
The Celestial Dragon above,
And the Deep Dragon below.
The circle gently dissolves,
But the connection remains.
You carry their gifts within you.
And just breathe softly now.
Feel the surface beneath you,
The air around you,
The steadiness of your heartbeat.
Wiggle your fingers,
Your toes,
Down roll your shoulders.
And when you're ready,
Open your eyes.
You have walked with the wind.
You have flown with a dragon.
And you have remembered something important.
You don't need to be perfect.
You just need to be in motion.
You are free.
You are light.
And you are ready.
Let that be with your breath today.
Welcome back.
And welcome home.
