The Dragon Spirit Animal

Dragon spiritual meaning

Warning: Sometime The Dragon comes as a warning though rarely as a prediction. It seeks rather to make us look at things we are ignoring or repressing and bring them into the open and deal with them.

Protection: The Dragon may come at a time when we need strength of some sort. Are you feeling under pressure with something? Are you eating healthy and exercising? Do you feel under attack?

Flight: Any animal with wings can suggest flight. This can be a need to run from (or panic about) a situation (or person) but, somewhat differently, a chance to run TO something rather than away.

Fear: The Dragon can sometimesbe what is called a fear card. This very much depends on how you feel about these animals. If they make you shudder or panic at the thought then look at both reversed and upright meanings.

The Dragon a quick witted person or it can be a call for fire and brimstone wherever it may be needed. That said, it can also be a warning to think before you speak so maybe that should come first.
