Overview

Explores the importance of dragon and serpent energies and symbols from prehistory to the present around the world • Explains how dragons and serpents are bearers of the elemental and archetypal energies of the Earth • Examines myths, legends, and symbols of dragons and serpents in many cultures, including their positive associations in Asia and their often misinterpreted negative meanings in Christianity • Reveals the geomantic meaning of dragon energy and how to reconnect to it for supporting the Earth in these times of change Revealing how dragons and serpents are deeply embedded in the story o f humankind and the Earth itself, the author takes us on a journey through their myths, legends, and symbolism in different ages and cultures around the world. Stefan Broennle explains how the dragon is an archetype of the elemental force of the Earth, white the serpent, which can change its skin and regenerate, carries the elemental force o f rebirth and is also connected to the Earth through its relationship with the feminine. Examining traditions and beliefs originating in Europe and Asia, he explores the spiritual meaning of dragons and serpents and how they reflect the development o f our connection to the Earth. He recounts tales of famous examples, including Fáfnir, the Hydra, and Nidhogg. He also examines the meaning o f the dragon in geomantic symbolism and the location o f soul paths, dragon paths, and ley lines. A powerful exercise enables us to awaken the dragon energies within us and connect more deeply to the Earth. This book is much more than a mythological or geomantic compendium, however. lt offers access to the archetypal ener- gies of dragons and serpents that are crucial not only for our individual growth and transformation but also for the fate o f humanity and the Earth during this present time of change.

Author Information

Stefan Broennle is a geomantic consultant and engi- neer. He studied landscape ecology at the Technical University of Munich and has been providing con- sultancy and design services for interior and exterior spaces since 1993. His focus is not simply on incorporating physical radiesthesia but also, more importantly, on the con- crete spiritual relationship between person and place, which is supported through ritual practices and shaped and structured by the energetic power of rocks (lithoenergy), water (hydroenergy), and plants (phytoenergy). Since 1994 he has been a course leader and lecturer, first for HAGIA CHORA and now for INANA school of geomancy, both of which he co-founded. He has held a lectureship at Weihenstephan-Triesdorf University since 2011. He has also trained in Qi Gong, Taijiquan, radiesthesia, technical remote viewing (TRV), and focusing. He lives in Germany and is pas- sionate about bringing together the physical and spiritual aspects of geomancy.
