I don't know how to start this off so I will try to do the best that I can. I just got done doing an I Ching reading and working on my healing codes. I remember falling asleep on my stomach. I started to have a dream of my roommates trash talking in a joking manner. Then the next thing that I knew I "woke up" in my room in the position in which I fell asleep. The only thing is that I was not really awake - I awoke from a dream into another, but this was different because I knew that I was dreaming and was fully cognizant - I could control this dream. Anyway, I felt a force trying to keep me down, but with great strength and shaking my head to break free from the restraining force, I pushed myself quickly into an upright manner in order to face that compelling force. Try to think of a butterfly breaking out of it's chrysalis and you will get the idea of what it felt like. I was full of fear and adrenaline, my body was electric and very alive but I wanted to "take out" (kill) whatever it was that constrained me. I remember looking around my room with nothing to see; no entity, no presence. My upper body was just filled to the brim with energy. It felt like I just got done bench pressing 400 lbs and then flexing in the mirror. The thing that I also noticed was that I could perceive having a reptilian tail. As I approached the door of my room, I heard a voice saying, "Now you will know my power." I looked at my door and readied myself to open and then ambush anything that was on the other side of it. Ripping the door open, there was nothing, except a massive adrenaline rush from the anticipated battle. I walked down the hallway and stopped by the bathroom thinking that there maybe something in there. Walking in, I looked into the mirror. I have this belief or superstition that, in my dreams, mirrors are portals to another dimension. Don't ask why - I just do. A face that I have seen before in a dream from my younger days appeared superimposed upon my face in a transparent manner. But the face was different this time, whereas in my earlier days the hair was jet black, flame red eyes and a long pointed black beard. Here, the hair was white, eyes still red with a beard not so long and white also. The face in my earlier years was there to do my great harm, while this one just as powerful as the other, was more benevolent(?). Then I woke up.

I immediately turned on my light and did a reading about the meaning of my dream and this is what I got: Hexagram 1.1.2.3.5.6>16. There is just too much there for me to digest. I don't know where to start :confused:. I was thinking that it may have something in conjunction with my birthday, I don't know. What do you folks think?

Seems the dragon was sleeping, woke up in a dream (became lucid), from where he/she encounters greatness, but soars beyond reach with this reality. It awakened your creative imagination, or as William Blake called, divine imagination. If you're engaged in anything creative in your waking life, it's likely to be inspired and possibly awakened by this dream.

The young fool became an old fool, but a fool is a fool. The reptilian tail would speak (to me) about our inherent reptilian nature, and that side of the dragon which is devoid of such things as good and evil.

Finally, I am at a computer again :). Thank you for the replies. I thought it was strange in light of my earlier hexagram that i received when asking about what the general tone for my 44th year would be. I received hexagram 1.3.6 > 58. I feel that things in my life are not moving the way that I would like to and it is my hope that things will start moving in a more positive direction. I would like to see an improvement in my living standard, not so much as gaining material things as much as having a decent financial buffer. Not only that, but I have really suffered in my occult studies and I am not too fond of that. So, I hope that these insights you folks shared ring true for me :D. Thank you.

By the way, have you noticed how white that big lizards teeth are? What's its secret :p.

Lots of use, biting through wildebeest bones and whatnot. More impressive to me is his or her impartiality. It's like the story of the fragile and hungry young girl, who was cornered by a tiger, and prayed to the tiger not to eat her. The tiger walked away, most likely because her protein value would not be worth the effort to kill and eat what was left of her. Her misfortune saved her life, her prayers to the tiger were answered.

but back to dragons..

R.e. your dream, there may also be connections to your kundalini.

Kundalini (kuṇḍalinī, Sanskrit: कुण्डलिनी) literally means coiled. In yoga, a "corporeal energy"[1] - an unconscious, instinctive or libidinal force or Shakti, lies coiled at the base of the spine. It is envisioned either as a goddess or else as a sleeping serpent, hence a number of English renderings of the term such as 'serpent power'. The kundalini resides in the sacrum bone in three and a half coils and has been described as a residual power of pure desire.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kundalini This idea is said to have been about at around during 1300 BC, and is part of the original oral traditional teaching of the Upanishads. It fits well with the rising dragon in hex 1.

Correcting my technical error. The Nile crocodile feeds on wildebeest. The posted imaged is that of an alligator. Neither are a dragon, neither is the Komodo dragon/lizard. But those animals have the same cold blooded detachment, except for their young, before they're old enough to eat. Besides that and their territory, predation is what they do, just as we all consume to live. There's no due process beyond that. If the tiger chooses to or not to eat you, is up to the tiger.

There are many dragons, but only one which clutches the pearl. The others act somewhat aimlessly, though no less life giving or taking. I've found 1 to be there in matters of life and death. It's lifted my trouble, as I interpret it as "it's in God's hands".

It might be that you "faced your monster" in the mirror. Seeing it as yourself, which (seems to me) is quite intelligent from your unconscious, usually it is some kind of outer beast.

When one has the guts to face it, it loses a lot of its danger and its power over you. So the dream seems to me a very positive one.

I can certainly say that I am my worst enemy. Even at my age (44), I still struggle with doubts about my abilities and my mind keeps me there because it finds its strength from my turbulent childhood. I have had very little motivation to go out and put to use the latent talents that I have. It's the fear of failure and the "supposed" repercussions that theoretically follow from that failure. I just have a hard time trusting anything or anybody for that matter and I have literally built a prison for myself. But I am getting sick of watching life go by and not experiencing life. There is a tension that I experience due to my desire to get on with life, take a chance and grow. This is one of the reasons for me taking up the I Ching: to understand myself and to make the best of the opportunities in life.
