Dancing With Dragons

Very informative and interesting book about dragons. Anyone interested in knowing and invoking dragons in their life should read this book. I did have an issue with the book pages 145-146 was ripped out.

Excellent introduction

An excellent introduction to the astral realm of dragons. This book includes many powerful and effective rituals and spells. Magickal coresspondences are all accurate. Descriptions of various dragons are very descriptive and interesting (mountains, desert, dark and light etc.). This book takes the practitioner and seeker by the hand and guides them step-by-step through the dragon realms. The only thing this book lacked were creative visualizations. I also did not like how Conway required so many tools that were unattainable for rituals (ie. sword, staff, wand), although it may help to focus energy and create the 'mood'. You do not really need all these tools, for dragon magick, they can be easily substituted. In addition, just a reminder that you do not earn a dragon's trust with fancy tools.

The Ultimate Dragon Book for Magick Lovers

Ever since I was in 6th grade, I've loved dragons. Not to mention, any so-called "mythical" beings. In 6th grade I came across D.J. Conway's book "Mythical, Magickal, Mystical Beasts and How to Invite Them Into Your Life" and it created a turning point for me. That's when I decided that my spiritual path was to work Magick, become Pagan/Wiccan. I also got her book "Animal Magick" because I love animals, and that showed how to do lots of animal rituals and meditations, along with chants as well.Eventually I came across "Dancing with Dragons" and it is my favorite D.J. Conway book to this date. I've noticed that many reviewers here talk about not having swords or athames, therefore unable to do the rituals. What they didn't write is that D.J. Conway wrote in the book that if you don't have these things you do not need them. You simply use your power hand, the one you write with, and it works just the same. I don't have a sword, or a charcole burner for incense, but things work all right for me. Sometimes you have to substitute. This book is a must have, for both beginners and advanced magickal practicers. After all, I got the book about 2 years ago and tomorrow, Jan. 31, I turn 15.

Non believers beware

I found this book when I was small and just interested in magick. I was ready to put aside my ideas of witches and so on until I read this. It turned my life around. Although I have not yet contacted a dragon, with this book I have no doubt that I will. Not only is Dacing With Dragons a specific ritual text, its no-nonsense approach to magick is wonderfully refreshing. The pages just creak with the amount of information, lore, legends, spells, oils, crystals, chants and scripts connected with dragons, a reasonably obscure branch of magick until now. It also gives advice and information for those just starting in the field of magick and tackles some vital issues head on, remaining practical and informative throughout.Thank you, DJ Conway, for this wonderful gift.

Best book on dragons I have ever seen.

I've read this book two times and it was even better the seccond time I read it. Her view of dragons were excellent and she had explained every question I had on my mind. This book is very good for anyone that has a thirst for knowledge and has an open mind.
