help in identifying

Post by doodlingowl »

Been seeing/ dreaming of a dragon with long sweeping horns that eventually twirl together like a dna helix. At the tip of the horns is a crown/halo? that just floats/shines. She's always staring at me, willing me to know who she is.
I need help identifying her. I believe her to be Leviathan, but I wish to have more input as I feel like that's not right.

Have you try to ask her, who she is?

In most dreams when we experience something like that it's very common that we "hear" the name of the person/entity in our head, or we wake up and we "know" who it was. Didn't happen?

It's very hard for someone to say who it was based on your description since entities usually change shape unless they present themselves on a very easy to identify figure.

How do you know it's a she? How's the environment that surrounds you two when you meet it?

When i dream of her the environment is really dark, almost like a void. Only visible thing is her. I say "she" because thats what she feels like.
Recent research makes me think Tiamat. Thanks for trying.

It could be .. i'm not very eloquent on mythical creatures as it was never something very present in my life or dreams, so it's not easy for me.

Anyways, have you read anything "suspicious" lately?

My first thought was Tiamat, but I think I may be thinking that because I used to watch the dungeons and dragons cartoon as a kid... I guess though, it's possible, perhaps even likely, that the entity is appearing in a form unique and filtered through you. maybe have a think about it, see what all the imagery means to you. I can't think of any entity that fits that description exactly, but I do have a very clear image of it from the description. I may have seen it before but I can't recall it right now.

Tiamat kinda fits, her floating in a void-space would make sense, as a progenitor goddess, a proto-DNA-helix would also make sense. I guess it couldn't hurt to ask her if she is Tiamat :P

Review the symbolic cosmology of the nordic ygdrasil off the top of my head - but indeed the image you describe have many parallels in myth, religion and magic around the world for the past 7,000+/- years in variance in form - but similarity in meaning. How's that for a run on sentence?

I think i might have figured it out based on the filtering idea you habe mentioned. Would explain HIS appearance since Ive been fascinated with dragons since i was little. Thanks a lot XD.
