Have you ever felt like life was nudging you towards something greater? Like there’s magic hiding in the ordinary, waiting for you to notice it? Recently, I found myself reflecting on lessons I’ve learned over seven transformative years, and it’s as if a dragon whispered them to me.
Let me share what it taught me.
1. Perspective Shapes Reality
The dragon’s first reminder: we can choose to live in an expanded reality where miracles occur daily. It’s all about perspective.
Imagine standing under a vast sky. You might see herons soaring gracefully, or, if you shift your perception, dragons dancing in the clouds. This metaphor reminds us that the world can be mundane or miraculous, depending on the lens we use. Choosing to see magic invites it into our lives. Living in this expanded reality means believing in possibilities beyond what we can see and daring to embrace the extraordinary.
2. Messages Are Everywhere If You Look
Years ago, during a time of intense spiritual growth, a heron appeared in my life. Day after day, it felt as though this majestic bird was guiding me. Every encounter became a silent conversation with the divine, filled with wisdom.
I could have dismissed these moments as coincidence. But I chose to see meaning in them - proof that the universe was speaking to me. That shift transformed these encounters into profound lessons about trust, patience, and the magic of being present.
What if every experience you have is trying to tell you something? Are you listening?
3. The Universe Has Your Back
Here’s the dragon’s third lesson: you are supported. Always.
Even when life feels chaotic or unkind, the Universe is gently nudging you towards growth. Challenges aren’t punishments; they’re opportunities to stretch into the fullness of who you are.
When we trust in this benevolence, we stop fighting against the tide and start flowing with it. Gratitude and humility grow naturally, as does the ability to see blessings even in difficult moments. The Universe isn’t working against you; it’s your ally, guiding you home to yourself.
4. Faith Makes Life Meaningful
Living a faithful life doesn’t mean blindly following rules or expecting perfection. It’s about having faith in yourself and the greater cosmic narrative unfolding around you. It’s about embracing who you are - quirks, flaws, and all.
Faith is courageous. It’s trusting that even when the path is unclear, you’re walking it for a reason. It’s knowing that every moment holds purpose and that you’re part of something bigger than yourself. Faith transforms the mundane into magic.
5. Embrace Your Weird
Seven years ago, I wouldn’t have read this post, let alone have written it. I would have dismissed it as nonsense. My curiosity about the mysterious and magical was something I kept securely hidden away, afraid of being seen as weird or different.
But suppressing who we are only breeds shame. Over time, I realised that the parts of myself I’d hidden were the key to my freedom. Owning my interests, including astrology and the spiritual journey that brought me here, has been the most liberating choice I’ve ever made.
What parts of yourself are you hiding? What might happen if you embraced them instead?
6. Truth Is Power
The dragon’s sixth lesson is a tough but essential one: secrets keep us small. They breed shame and fear. But when we own our truth, we unlock our power.
Carl Jung said it best: “Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.” The journey of self-discovery requires us to face the parts of ourselves we’ve buried. By doing so, we gain clarity, courage, and the ability to live fully.
What truths are you ready to uncover?
7. Be Courageously You
The final lesson is this: being authentically, unapologetically you is the only sensible choice.
True, it’s not always easy. Sharing the vulnerable, messy, magical parts of yourself takes bravery. But it’s also the most rewarding thing you can do.
When we stop hiding and start living in alignment with our truth, we invite connection, joy, and purpose into our lives. The journey isn’t about becoming someone new; it’s about uncovering who you’ve always been.
These seven lessons are gifts the dragon shared with me, but they’re not just mine. They’re yours too, if you choose to embrace them. Miracles are everywhere. Truth is power. And you? You are amazing, just as you are.
How does this fit with Aquarius Season?
Aquarius Season runs from January 20th to February 19th
Aquarius challenges us to step beyond the confines of the familiar and envision a life filled with possibility and wonder - much like choosing to see dragons instead of herons. This is a time for breaking free from limiting perspectives and daring to dream of a world where miracles are part of our everyday reality.
Aquarius also asks us to trust the collective flow of the universe. It's a season that reminds us we are supported, not just by the divine but also by our connections with others. By leaning into this trust, we open ourselves to growth, transformation, and a deeper sense of purpose.
The themes of truth and self-discovery resonate strongly during this time. Aquarius encourages us to own our uniqueness, to bring our quirks, stories, and hidden parts into the light. When we live in alignment with our true selves, we not only liberate ourselves from shame but also inspire others to do the same.
This Aquarius season is special because it marks the true beginning of Pluto journeying through the sign over the next two decades. Pluto adds a flavour of transformation and exacerbates Aquarius' drive for authenticity and truth. Read more about Pluto in Aquarius.
Finally, this season highlights the power of perspective. By choosing to see every experience - whether joyful or challenging - as meaningful, we align with Aquarius' energy of wisdom and higher understanding.
It's a time to celebrate who we are and to courageously step into a future shaped by authenticity, faith, and the infinite possibilities that await us.
