This was a wonderful collection of dragon lore and journey through dragon energies. This book was very interesting and one that I completely recommend. I have worked with dragons in the past and this book does a great job at helping you with that journey.
The Year of the Magickal Dragon is a really interesting book. I thought it was very well written and had a ton of facts, recipes, advice, etc. I learned a lot about the different types of dragons and their powers. It is truly a great book, I wish I had the images that would have gone along with it (they did not show up on my Kindle). Pictures would have made it even better.
This book is a pleasant surprise in a way that is giving to the reader chance to work with dragons from different mythologies and legends in a very open way. Now, dragons are always connected to so called "Left-Hand path" in occultism and because this book is so direct in its approach several times I wonder if this teaching are actually belong to the left-hand path. A book that starts with rituals and meditations about famous Egyptian snake/dragon Apep will probably raise some brows in occult circles. So, in that way, if you need more deeply to appreciate this book I will recommend title Apophis by Michael Kelly and after you will be able to understand better this one. In general one interesting book! Thanks.
I received a copy of this book for a fair and honest review. I have always loved dragons and this journey through the year with the power of the dragons being involved was amazing. I hand not thought of including thing all the time in my magickal workings, but this gives me a place to trying that and figure which types of dragons to use at what time and year and for what rituals and celebrations. This was a lot of information and I was happy to learn about dragons in this manor.
What a great book for beginners in the field of dragon magick! I liked the use of the wheel of the year as an area of study and reference. Fantastic and I mean who wouldn’t want to work with dragons?!?
