There is a Dragon...

Scotland was my home.  The land of magic and of brave tales... of which a dragon or two may be mentioned in them.  They could be relatives but I'll never know as my first awareness of the world was being in a little shop on the Isle of Skye, Scotland.  That is when I first saw "her".

She walked into the store, this American, and looked around.  In all the things in the store that was shouting to get her attention, she only heard me.  She couldn't resist my magnificent appeal.  She and the shop owner exchanged energy (money) which allowed me to come home with her.

The energy of American isn't as old and has a different flavor to it then what I was used too. But it was a palette that I could still get accustomed to as this lady believed in dragons and the magic of fairytales.

I was very happy as she gave me a lovely warm corner of my own to nestle in.  For I believe I am a fire dragon.  I had the lovely sunlight that brightened the day shining in on me as I took my responsibility of watching over the hearth (stove) very seriously. For six years I happily watched over and protected my corner of our world. 

 No gremlins or goblins got past me!

Often I could hear her say how glad she was to have a dragon in her home.  But as any mage will tell you that a seventh year will always invoke the Energy of Change. 

This is when my lady came to me with her crisis but I was ready.  For the energy in the house had shifted and I felt a new calling.  My lady removed me from my tiny nook of the world and asked me if I was willing to change for her?  It did require me leaving my safe place but I was needed to watch over a new place and that if I took the request- a safe spot would be created just for me.

This meant a metamorphosis of awakening of my water element that had been a hidden part of me that I hadn't even been aware of.  As soon as I tapped into this element the hot water rushed forth to shower a welcome to me and my new power.

The transformation to my new Dragon Grotto isn't totally complete yet, but I do believe I will settle in nicely in my new place.  The magic feels right and I can even let off steam once in a while too.
