The Spirit Dragon

The Spirit Dragon
Although most legends originated that the Spirit dragon is either fact or Myth. It is entirely possible
that these creatures do exist and may even do today. 
Why! do you ask. There have been many stories that speak of these eight Spirit Dragons that still may be in existence today. And some say they are called the Guardians or keys to some secrets of the universe. Others have said they come from a strong spiritual and Magical Energy too. 
Origin~ 
The origins of these amazing Dragons is unknown. However, It is believed that they came into existence when some of the people with the strongest souls were born, their energy's or orbs came into existence centuries ago, with the original people souls that the eight spirit dragons had inhabited in the being of time.
Appearance~ 
The appearance of the Spirit Dragons varies at times. In truth they have no true appearance in their true form. But in their manifested form they can appear in many different forms of beautiful dragons.
One form of the Spirit dragon that is most commonly seen is - (  A blue dragon  - when the dragon manifested into this form of the dragon he can appear to be a large dragon with brilliant blue scales. And on his underside or bellyside will be covered in a lighter shade color of blue scales. As for his wings - they too are a brilliant blue, same as their bodies for the exception of the outer rim of their wings which is a deep purple on some of these dragons. On the Crest of their head, brow, eyes and a  strip down their muzzles is a fiery red color that goes all the way down to the tip of their tail. And the last eight nails on their tails are a deep crimson red.) 
This is one version of the Spirit Dragon. Their eyes are Multitude of colours ranging from the darkest brown to the lightest blue you would ever see. They also so have very sharp teeth, but there is really no real use for them.
I found in my readings and research of the Spirit Dragon that there are quite a few different manifestation's of these special creatures. For one I have seem many Great Artist depicted the Spirit Dragon as a beautiful White Spiritual dragon.  
There was one that depicted the Spirit Dragon as a beautiful small yet powerful bright green dragon like in nature. And the last one that I found which i will share with you later in the post his images of these amazing artist is more of a Japanese style of a spirit dragon and the dragon is white and gold. 
The Spirit Dragon in its spiritual form or purest form appears as a small orb of light and energy if

you will just before he will manifest into his true form that he is most often seen just before he turns to the soul of the person he inhabits.
These creatures do not die as long as they inhabit a soul. However, if they remain outside of a person soul long enough they will die. 
This length of time varies but on average it is a period of supposedly one human year.
Special Abilities~
The Spirit Dragon has many different abilities that most of the other dragon kin do not. And that is what puts them in a whole new level. 
Some of these abilities were, being able to withstand  drastic temperatures changes and dangerous amounts of energy in their spiritual forms because in this form they are nothing but a heat, energy and light.
It is conceivable that one could actually survive outside a being,  if the spirit dragons were to live in a area with high amounts of pure energy. In  its manifested form, its hide will turn most any weapon making into a perfect ally in battle.
Note: Spirit Dragons not only will fight directly when it is for a cause such as the protection of the World, they live in. They also will grant the person they inhabit enhanced strength and speed along with the wisdom and knowledge that they have collected over their seemingly infinite life spam which could be centuries.
Territory~ 
Spirit Dragons do not have any real territory. They live in the spirit of a person where they obtain the necessary energy to live when a person dies they move to a new spirit. 
Diet~
Their diet is very much different than that of any of the other dragons, this is because these dragons don't eat. They are spiritual dragons and don't need food in a practical sense. They do food but not in away that you would think. 
These Grand Creatures feed off of energy. This is because they give off large amounts of energy
themselves which must be replaced in order to live.......
To get enough energy they inhabit the spirit of a living soul and draw on the souls energy. After they're done with the energy it is given back to the soul. This is a endless process which happens rapidly. 
There is an equilibrium, however a balance between the spirit and the dragon and it's 'victim' - if you want to call it that. I don't really think of it as a victim being that all the wonders that they receive being a host to the dragon for a period of time. The knowledge and and wisdom that the dragon passing onto each of his souls is a gift in my opinion. 
Its more like the spirit and the soul share each other's energy. This will only work in the soul due to the high amounts of energy it has.
It takes at least a year for them to run out of energy if they are not in a spirit- the dragons-. Not every spirit can support these amazing creatures. Some are less energetic than others. The people rarely ever know that they harbor one of these fantastic dragons too. 
Mating~
Spirit Dragons do not mate. There are only eight to ever live as it is told in legend. If one was to die
which doesn't actually happen, because it is reborn when a new soul is created. 
It may lose all knowledge it gained, But it continues to inhabits the world and seeks those three questions that all Spirit Dragons do. 
The Three Questions Dragons Seek~
These are the 3 Questions that the Spirit Dragons always seek to find answers to questions of their lives they inhabit~
1) Why so some people treasure life so much?
2) Why do other creatures seek to destroy that life?
3) What is this life that these creatures treasure or destroy?
4) What do you think the spirit Dragon would want to know if he choose your body for that year? Interesting question...
I hope you all enjoy my installment of the Spirit Dragon - for my Love of the Dragon!
note; Please enjoy the amazing photo's of the amazing Artist who have painted them.
they aren't mind. but I love the way they have depicted the dragon.

Tiny and Talented

Tiny and Talented
Dwarfs are highly gifted creatures. They may be small in stature
and also quite stout but they too are Magical Creatures. They can transform any type of basic metal or stone into precious objects-
These precious objects could range from the finest gemstones layered in pure gold and silver. The gemstones could be sapphire's, ruby's, diamonds, and even blue diamonds. The quality of their  weapons and armor were of the highest quality metals and some of the most powerful magic of the Norse Gods. Some of these legendary weapons were the legendary golden spear, golden ring and hammer. This would explain why they inspire such Awe. Dwarfs can choose to pass on some of their magic skills to humans-mortals if they choose to or if they feel the human is shown good qualities that a dwarf. If a Celtic
Smith were to find a dwarf at work on his anvil, he could be compelled to bless him with the secret of the craft or to attend him, when called to completing tasks. Alternatively dwarfs might curse the items they make, much like the other underground metal workers of Norse legend. The Dark Alf's who brings about only misfortune. 

In Germany, the tales of the dwarfs are generous & especially helpful to

Neighbors in need. In Germany it is said that mortals will come to the dwarf's mountains to borrow kitchen implements, tableware and
festive dress for weddings, which these dwarfs do provide for the mortals when the come, providing that they come before the sunrays that hit the human world. In return for their generous gifts to the mortals, the mortals would give great portions of a great feast to the dwarfs. Although in many of the German tales of this generosity of the dwarfs toward the mortals, dwarfs were mocked by mankind and forced to abandon their glorious underground palaces. 

Many hundreds of years ago... These dwarfed often would come out of there at the time/grotesque rocky places, and would seek out people in
house and field, in kitchens and spinning rooms, willing and ready to lend a helping hand in all sorts of household chores. Sometimes they would even help the very poor with gold and precious stones, raising them up from their poverty- 
Sometimes they provided helpful advice and told entertaining tales to the boys and girls, relating poetic mysteries, such as those of Paris. 

Further, more the harmless creatures the dwarfs would ask of the mortal  farmers and mountain inhabitants no other payment for their services than permission to come into the little corner of an inhabitant living room; 

Here these dwarfs could sit next to a warm stove, they could spend the night on a little bundle of straw or on their own mountain jar of asbestos when the winter cold would push into the deepest parts of their palace halls of the underworld and turn it all to Ice even the underwater springs would be frozen solid ice till spring.






Till finally in the first signs of spring they can return to their

underworld palace halls with the water springs now unfrozen.
I hope you all Enjoy my post on the Tiny & Talented/ The Dwarves

Gnomes

Gnomes-
Garden Gnome
I have always love Gnomes. I think it brings me back to my
childhood. My mum would read to me about the Gnomes, Fairies and Dragons as a child; And I think I've
never out grown those days. In fact I think I've embraced them the older I have gotten. That's how 
I came up with the idea of my blog over a year ago. I just didn't know that it would be as popular as 
it has become. And that is all because of YOU! my dearest Friends and Followers. I am so happy 
that I have been able to make a blog that has been a place of calm and relaxation for all. 
The Gnome well they have been many things to many people all over the world and the have be
drawn many different ways too. I hope in this post to honor these wonderful magical creatures. The gnome is a diminutive spirit with
Renaissance magick and alchemy. Their Origins is believed to be originating in Scandinavia, Gnomes later migrated to the lowlands some 1500 years ago. They are a mythical creature who are known mostly for their extremely small size and subterranean lifestyle. They build complex underground homes, usually in the base of trees or small hills that are easy to hollow out. These all have many escape tunnels thought out the underground home so if needed the family could hide or escape from larger animals. The Gnomes take great care of the woodland creatures when they are injured, in return they have
Forest Gnome
great relations with the smaller or medium size animals. An gnome can live over the age of 500years, reaching their middle age between 250-350 years of age. Gnomes do marry, and almost always have twins. The families get no larger that having 2children. They say that Gnomes are a peaceful, helpful mythical creatures and also can live in old homes and barns, helping the families who reside within. 

Forest Gnome
As far as their appearance the Gnomes are usually on average only a foot tall [15 centimeters tall], but with their cap that they always ware the Gnome can appear much taller. As for their feet they have always been known to be have fur or hair on the top of their feet and that fact that their feet are somewhat pigeon toed which gives them an extra edge on speed and agility through the woods and grassy valley'sThey also keep them warm during to cold spell in the higher parts of the woodlands. As for either of the Gnomes weighs it can range for the males to the females, in the males they can weight up to 300 grams, and the females 250-275 grams. (sorry for the folks that don't know grams to foot or feet like myself. I couldn't find it in that contexts) Now what the Gnomes ware, well it really depends on who your talking too and what culture too. They have been known to ware the basic peaked red cap, blue grown-reen pants and either felt
boots, birch shoes or wooden clogs. Around his waist is a belt with a tool kit attached is a holding 
knife, hammer an many other tools as the male gnomes. Typically for both they are said to be
very fair faced, though the  boast or rosy red cheeks, Males with their long beards that adorn their faces
and turn gray far sooner than their hair. The females ware gray or khaki clothing, consisting of a blouse and 
skirt to their ankles. She also has black-gray knee socks and high shoes or slippers. Now before she gets married, sh dons a green cap. Before a female gnome gets married she will let her hair hang down, the 
 outfit is complemented by a greencap and braids. Later the long braids will disappear under a scarf while the green cap is replaced by more sober tones after she marries. 
Forest Gnome
There are different Races of Gnomes- And the most common is the Forest Gnome 
who are rarely seen or have any contact with humans. The Garden Gnomes live in old ancient gardens
and enjoy telling melancoly tales of the ancient gnomes past. Dune Gnomes  are slightly larger than their 
woodland breathren cousins and choose remarkably drab clothing to ware. The House Gnomes
have the most knowledge of man/humans, often speaking his language. It is from this family that we 
come to the Gnome Kings are chosen. Farm Gnomes resemble their House brethern cousins, but 
are more conservative in manners and dress. Lastly are the Siberian Gnomes which have been more 
interbred than any of the other Gnomes and associated freely with the trolls. They are much larger than 
any of their brethern cousins and have a infinately more nasty nature to them. It is best never to evoke the ire
of such Gnomes for they delight in revenge.
I found that there was a great deal of myth folklore on the Gnome which was wonderful 
being the fact that it is one of my favorite creature. It is said that Gnomes are widespread magick creature 
and known to the human race quite well. The Germans name the Gnomes - 'Erdmanleins', except in the Alpine areas, where they are called Heinzemannchens. In Denmark and Norway they call 
the Gnomes Nisse - In Sweden the Gnome is called - Nissen. In Brittany they call the Gnomes
Nains. And in Iceland they are called - Tontti, Finns and Foddenskkmaend. The Polish call 
the Gnomes by their familiar name gnome. However the Bulgaria and Albania call them Dudje-
In Hungary, Yugoslavia and Czechoslovakia called Gnomes Mano's. The Dutch called them
Kabouter - And the Belgian would call them Skritek. In Switzerland and Luxembourg they were called Kleinmanneken which means 'littlemen'. And finally in western Russia they called gmomes
Domovoi Djedoes.  Gnomes are basically are humanoid fairies of a minuscule size. Gnomes are often compared to their far removed cousin the dwarfs, but unlike the dwarfs who are always mining for treasure of the earth and acquiring wealth of gold and gems, the gnomes obsession is with the wealth that brings them the wealth of the very bowels of Earth that they stand on!there is the exception to the rule, some gnomes that do interact with humans regularly are a troublesome subspecies as they call them known as Garden Gnomes-  They would burrow in soft soil, feed mainly on root and are kleptomaniac. Due to this; they infest gardens and are little if not nothing more than pests. Of course this is only one person opoion, I believe if I were to meet one they would be that way in my garden..  
As for their Power - Most Gnomes ar 7 times stronger that a human man, can run at speeds of 
35 miles per hour, and have better sight than a hawk. These abilites help the Gnome to do many
things , such as find woulded, dying animals for which they feel they are responible for. Because
of their love for the animals. All the amimals of the forest are the Gnomes friends and are willing to help him at any time. Many people say that gnomes have elevated practical jokes to an art form. but most especially they love the earth and animal and family.

The Guardian Dragon-2013

The Guardian Dragon~

Well I thought I would try in find some more usually or more different dragons that you may or may not have seen on my continued love for the Dragon...
What did find about the dragon is, that in China they are concerned  along with the phoenix the most prominent of all Magical Creatures. I have found that in many Chinese and other types of mythology stories of the dragon and the phoenix. I am going to introduce you to the dragon known as the Dragon Guardian of the East-
The History of the Guardian Dragon~
Know as the long in the Chinese language, these creatures were often depicted with whiskers to show their immense wisdom and power. Chinese dragons are very kind creatures despite their great power and awe inspiring forms. In fact dragons are associated with the Chinese Emperor.  Even the color of the Emperor's robes is associated with the dragon. So you would imagine in those ancient times only the emperor and empress were able to wear the yellow robes signifying their royalty.




The life of the Guardian Dragon~   
In the Chinese mythology, A yellow dragon presented itself to the Chinese people with a scroll imbibed with mystic characters that are the origin of the Chinese style of writing. These dragons are known to live in rivers, lakes, oceans and other bodies of water so they can control the precipitation on earth.  The Guardian Dragon was found in the East and was associated with the seasons - spring being the color blue, the element of the water and the virtue propriety. 

I hope you enjoyed this dragon as all dragons.








As I do for my love for THE DRAGON!

The Magick of the White Stag

The Magick of the White Stag-
I've always been in Awe of the beauty of the Magick of the 
White Stag! To me it seems to have a Magical, Divine and Mystery about  these amazing Magical Creatures. 
It is said that where ever a female deer roam in the forest the stag isn't that far off giving its sovereignty, strength and divine protection.
The White Stag in Norse Mythology in Celestial as a guardian. 
It has four stags represents the four winds that stand around the world tree Yggdrasil. 
Now in the Chinese Myth of the White Stag, it is the emblem of   
Shouhsien, the God of Immortality. In Japan, It is the Celestial Stag. While in Greek Mythology it is said that the chariot of the virgin priests in whom Artemis was embodied was drawn by these most beautiful animals the StagsIn Hungarian Mythology - It is said  in this country that the founders of their people called "the Magyar People"  Note; It is very important in Hungarian legend, that the White Stag has many - antlers with its head turned back over its shoulder. This remains to be an important emblem for the Hungarians even Today!
In Celtic Tradition - The White Stag is one of the oldest and most prevalent Magick Creatures in Ancient times and even Today. 
You may ask why?
Some of the legends of the White Stag in Celtic tradition can be demonstrated by the astonishing number of antlers that have been found in grave and pits where offerings  were made.

Note; In Gloucester, an archaeologist was doing one of these many digs, to see if he could find, some of the ancient Stag's antlers that were for these offerings centuries ago. In the dig at a Shrine to the local God , they uncovered a bronze figure of a Stag. On the figurine was an inscription which read, "Silvanus Callirius" meaning - [woodland king]. 
The fact that Stags grew and shed their antlers in the spring gave them a significant role as harbingers of death and rebirth. Often like
that of the Phoenix-Legend to of death and rebirth too.
 The Irish- have their story too! The story is about Fionn- I have even done a piece on the Irish stories of Fionn if you have a look. Anyway, in the Irish Story of Fionn - Its a Fionn cycle, the hero that chases a stag which is Donn the god of the dead and protector of the crops and cattle in disquise
He later marries a woman of fairy origin who often takes the form of  a deer, and their son ossian is considered half human and deer. 
This is a song which was his mother's ~
'If thou art my mother, a deer thou
If thou art my mother, a deer thou,
Be on guard from deeds of dogs''

One of the most famous poems In Celic Times about the White Stag-

"The song of Amairgin"

"I am a stag, of seven tines."

Lastly the Christian Mythology and European - White Stag.


The Myth starts with two Saints, St. Hubert and St Eutachius and tells how the two saints were out hunting, when they saw a young man had cornered something in the thick brush. There stood a beautiful White Stag. Before the young man could shoot the stag, St. Hubert and St. Eustachius  saw the cross of Christ with the Saviour living upon it, between the stags white antlers. 
He spoke words of restraint and called upon the young man to the spiritual quest instead. I hope that you all Enjoy the wonderful legend of the White Stag. It is a famous story. I love you all very much my dear
