Summary of Jafira's Draconity (1999-2007)
Requested and Answered by Jafira on 12-Oct-2019 07:55 (326 reads)
I became interested in dragons at a young age, always believing myself to have been different I grew up believing myself to have been a dragon. However under societal pressure I attempted to suppress that particular aspect of myself for most of my youth. However in my late teen years under much frustration, I ceased suppressing such beliefs and instead embraced them.


Through dreams, meditations, and feelings I started to peace together information on a perceived alternate life as a western styled dragon known as Korageth. This was not related to D&D, in any way, I was never a role player, rather, it was based on recurring dreams, unexplainable "flashbacks" or visions, as well as irrational feelings and sensations leaning towards the subject.


At the age of sixteen or seventeen for reasons unknown to me, two additional "dragon" guides, or persona''s known as Jafira and Veltra appeared to me. I feared that I may have been going insane as having two new sentient beings within my minds eye was obviously not natural.


I begun to search for an explanation. I started first with psychology, I read up on multiple personality disorder, or more appropriately multiple dissociative disorder, and even went so far as to take a class in psychology to learn more, much of the psychological explanation made sense, but it did not fully explain my irrational connections or feelings towards the mythological dragon.


Considering myself to be both rational, but equally a New Age Pagan Hippy, I felt that there had to be an alternative spiritual aspect with higher meaning then a mere disorder. I chose in the end, a spiritual explanation based on my perceptions, you the reader based on your own perceptions are welcome to accept the mental disorder or spiritual rational, as the truth can never truly be known.


I am open to both the spiritual and rational explanations. In any case, having chosen the spiritual rational to my connection, I researched over the internet until the point that I had discovered a site called Alt-Fan-Dragons, which explained a lot. Ironically, weeks after I had first discovered AFD, the site vanished.


Having lost access to the resources and community of AltFanDra, but still trying to discover what was wrong with me on a spiritual level, I begun to search for more clues, finding Baxils Draconity Faq, and finding it to be closely matching my perceived dragon beliefs, I begun to associate myself as dragonkin, however I was still perplexed by the fact that I seemed to have two additional separate draconic aspects rather then one.


I later came to the conclusion that the two "dragons", Jafira and Veltra were simply representations of my personality, with that conclusion obtained, they soon vanished from my minds eye, and I felt a bit more whole, and sane, or at least as sane as someone like myself could be declared.


Shortly afterwards, I begun writing fictional stories based loosely around the past images and scenes that had come to me through meditations and dreams and eventually begin to falsely believe the stories I wrote to be true, this was early in my period of awakening and inevitably caused me to make many foolish and unsubstantiated assumptions about my draconity.


In time I met a friends who aided greatly in helping me to understand myself better. With their assistance I was reassured that I was not insane, they taught me, and although some where younger then me I respected them as mentors. Some time after discovering a site known as Tysha's Dragon Forum and reading great discussions within it, I dedicated myself to doing all that I could for dragonkin society on the web.
