Dragon Hoard Bowls

Dragon bowls are a passive working designed to invite traditioal draconic energies into your life or practice! That means power, wisdom, confidence, and prosperity. It can also be used as a way to attract friendly dragon spirits if you incorporate spirit work into your practice. It's inspired by the way money bowls are designed to attract luck and wealth. Feel free to alter and fine-tune it to whatver suits your personal needs.

First, get a bowl. It doesn't have to be that big unless you have a lot you plan on putting in it and need the space. A trinket dish may be enough. It doesn't have to be explicitly dragon-themed, but try to make it something of reasonable quality. We're trying to create something that reflects an abundance of treasure, after all, so disposable styrofoam bowls aren't ideal. Local or handmade pottery is a good choice.

Fill the bowl with your dragon hoard. This can technically be made of anything, but particularly crystals and coins. Shiny curios, paper money, anything that conveys some sort of luxury or value is also acceptable. As tempting as they are, I try to avoid shiny plastic gems and similar items because while they look nice, it's still only a superficial value and they're easily disposable. Don't feel like you need to break the bank for your bowl. Start with whatever you already have on hand, even if it's just some loose crystal beans and spare change. It will grow over time.

Remember to feed your bowl. This is important. If you want it to stay effective, don't let this thing just sit and collect dust. Add little things to the bowl when you can, or burn incense in/over the bowl. Mix around the treasure now and then. I personally let the ashes fall and collect in the bowl. Every now and then I give it a refresh and clean it out to keep everything looking nice, but you may prefer to let the ashes build up over time and have that be part of it. Whatever makes sense for you!

The stuff in the bowl operates like an offering would. This is especially relevant for things like crystals. Everything in the hoard is dedicated to being a part of the hoard now, so try to avoid taking stuff out of the bowl to use it for other purposes and then putting it back in. If you're doing that then you don't have a hoard, you have a storage place for your stuff. In other words, no take-backsies. If you truly need something out of the bowl but don't want to damage the hoard, I recommend just removing it completely from the bowl and replacing it with something of equal or greater value.

Anyway... while @staff were busy enshitifying things, I put together that little faux-rosary/lunar prayer beads I've been wanting to do.

Four sets of seven blue goldstone beads, with obsidian, gray labradorite & pearl to mark the major phases, and a dragon on a crescent moon because hey, I work with dragons, why not?

I'm still working out the specifics of how they'll be used, but I'm just really happy with how it turned out! Learned a lot in the process, if nothing else.

I am interested in The Draconic Path. Ever since I was little, I have loved Dragons. In fact, Dragon was one of the first words I wished to learn how to spell. What I want to know, is how to join a clan, so that I may learn how to contact those that I revere, The Dragons.

weird question for anyone who has been in the witchy youtube space since the early/mid-2010s:

has anyone been keeping up with azura dragonfaether recently? she used to go by dragonfeather369 and now her channel name is the draconic priestess, but she still uses the name azura.

i was obsessed with her channel in middle school, and she really helped get me into witchcraft initially.

she’s rebranded a bit recently and the whole situation strikes me as a bit…odd.

her bio says she is the founder of draconic wicca, but she’s a muslim witch now so i’m not really sure how those two things jive because they’re both religious practices. i’m all for making your own spiritual path, but it seems a bit odd because half of her videos are about her being a muslim witch, and in those videos she dresses modestly and wears a hijab, but then in other videos there is absolutely no mention of islam and she exclusively talks about draconic wicca, also not wearing hijab while doing this. it’s not my place to judge someone else’s religion or how they practice it, but everything seems weirdly disjointed and nonsensical in a way i can’t really articulate well. you’d have to check out her channel to see what i’m talking about. maybe i’m overreacting but something just seems off.

also, i thought dj conway really founded draconic wicca (or a similar path?) which is extra weird because i remember azura reviewing conway’s book on her channel wayyyyy back. it seems weird to claim yourself as the founder of a religion when you supposedly practice another religion.

additionally, her comment sections are weirdly uncritical. while some of her videos contain basically an hour of the exact same point repeated over and over again in a very rambly and disorganized way, no one seems concerned about her mental state. no one asks how she can be wiccan and muslim at the same time, either. there seems to be absolutely zero curiosity about how her path actually works despite that being the point of her whole channel.

in one video she’ll talk about spells just being about setting the mood for her prayers, and not manifesting anything at all because it’s sinful. the next will be about how to cast a spell in draconic wicca.

the whole thing is just a little concerning to me. also, all of her captions and comments are in the third person now?

i need somewhere to talk about this because i don’t really understand what’s going on and it seems like she’s changed so much. i think comments of concern are getting mass deleted.

once again, i’m not actually commenting on her religious affiliation, more that everything seems a bit weird, contradictory, disorganized, and devoid of substance.

if you haven’t seen her in a while, check her channel out and let me know what you think. am i overreacting? something just seems really off.

Wizard meets dragons -- including an early appearance of an undead dragon, two years before Dragotha showed up in the corner of the White Plume Mountain area map. This was page margin art from "D&D Variant: Dragon Magic" by Michael Benveniste, in Dragon magazine 15, June 1978.

That article expanded upon the rules for spell-casting dragons, presenting a dragon spell list that included many new dragon spells. One of my favorites is the first level spell Breath Charm:

Any pebble, coin, or small mineral object becomes a charm vs dragon breath by use of this spell. Any one object or person touching the charm is not affected by dragon's breath. The charm is destroyed by this breath. Duration: Until used or dispelled. Range: Physical contact is necessary.

A single-use total immunity from breath weapons is potentially powerful, but I would keep this as level 1 in order to allow multiple castings during an encounter with a friendly allied dragon willing to equip the party with a useful gift. It could be nerfed to provide only resistance, but I might use it exactly as written since obtaining one of these is likely to be a rare event.

Merry meet fellow draconic practitioners! - & anyone else interested in dragon magick- I have compiled some herbs that I associate with Dragons and Dragon Magick, these can help you connect with them and their energy in your workings - I also like using them as offerings.

Dragon’s Blood (Resin, Incense): Although not specifically an herb, dragon´s blood as a resin/incense symbolizes strength, protection, and power. It’s often burned as incense or added to spells for potency and used to call upon dragon spirits. For as long as I can rememeber, I love this incense & it helps me enter a very focused state for dragon meditation; also, I´ve read dragons like this scent too.

Mugwort: Used for visions, dreamwork, and psychic connections, mugwort helps in accessing the astral plane, where many believe dragons reside. It's especially helpful for working with Lunar or Astral Dragons. You can use it in tea, but please do not use orally if you´re pregnant*

Cinnamon: Associated with the elemet of fire and energy, cinnamon adds power to spells, invokes Fire Dragon energies, and aids in manifestation, passion, and protection. For me, this is a very strong herb that can either be the foundation for spells, or add a very strong potency to them, just like Dragons do! I love to put cinnamon sticks for my Dragon altar to channel their energy.

Ginger: This herbs goes hand in hand with cinnamon for me. They´re similar, but ginger's association with dragon energy stems from its energizing, protective, and invigorating qualities, making it a powerful symbol of strength and resilience in both physical and spiritual realms.

Rue: Because of this herb´s powerful protective properties and known for clearing negative energies, we can focus this energy in banishing and protection spells, while calling upon dragons as protectors. I´ve found that once you get to know your Dragon and develop a closer relationship, we can request their protection while practicing the craft.

Sage: Meditation is one of the main ways to connect with Dragons -this is how I meet two of my Dragons- so I recommend this herb to use in preparation of your sacred space for meditation: sage is known for purification and clears out negative energies. This way, we can cleanse and use it to invoke dragon energies when starting a ritual or meditation.

Dandelion: Known for resilience and adaptability, dandelion is used for calling upon dragons for wisdom and endurance, especially in transformative or challenging situations. I personally associate dandelions with the Elemental Dragon of Air, Sairys.

Saffron: Perhaps my top favorite herb for Dragon Magick, for me saffron just embodies draconic energy. Whenever I use this herb in my spells, it seems to work quicker and stronger (great for banishing and repelling negative energy). Also, saffron’s vibrant color, energizing properties, spiritual symbolism, and rarity -just like Dragons, not easy to "obtain"/come across but very rewarding once you do- link it with dragon energy. It represents warmth, transformation, and a kind of regal power, qualities that align it symbolically with the essence of a dragon’s life-giving, protective, and transformative energy.

------------------------------------------------------------Thank you for reading, I hope this list helps you in your journey, remember that you can make your own correspondences & associations, your Dragons will guide you through this as well.
