In Joseph Campbell’s Hero’s Journey, the hero slays the dragon and returns home with the gold.
But in the modern mythic heroine’s journey?
We don’t slay the dragon—we ride it.
The dragon is not the enemy—it symbolizes your untamed feminine potential, creativity, strength, wisdom, and power.
Dragons don’t give you anything you don’t already have — they amplify it.
But here’s the thing: dragons don’t choose just anyone.
They choose those who are worthy.
This guided Active Imagination practice will help you meet your inner dragon—and begin to reclaim the qualities she’s been guarding on your behalf.
