THE SPELL
©1996

The old wizard begins to chant lifting his hands;
red mist erupts from his fingers, drifting,swirling
around the other man's feet, slowly rising upwards
spreading outwards it darkens as it passes his knees.

The victim shuts his eyes to close out the darkness;
his heart begins to race and pound loudly in his ears.

The thumping expands his chest,tightening hurtfully,
elevating his fear; yet...he can still feel the mist
crawling on his skin so chill it ravishes his body.

A cold breath slithers across his face. The sense of
forgetfulness sends a shiver slowly down his spine,
sudden change takes his breath away, heat so intense
it almost suffocates, then ever so slowly it subsides.

Crying sounds brush past his ear, a woman crying ,a
kiss of tears on his face, a sense of shrinking to fit.
The sensation of floating back and forth weightlessly.

Echoes from two directions drift past, harsh laughter,
the words of the wizard being pulled from his memory,
of life on his world, of his beloved, his homeland, Gone!

A mothers cry for joy as her two-year-old opens his eyes.

ROOM OF WONDERMENT
©1997

The door swings silently, stirring purple hued puffs
of anxiety in the atmosphere of this intriguing room.
Slowly peeking around the door, his heart in his throat,
pulse racing deep in his ear, as awe fills his young eyes.

The crystal ball on the desk seems to glow lavender,
reflecting in the mirror held by the wizard with the book.
Twin beds filled with stuffed animals of all kinds, even a
Dwarf,a wizard, and merman mixed in with many dragons.

His eyes drawn first to her wand lying next to a tray filled
with all manner of things, beakers, bottles filled with assorted
liquids of some kind, powders, a small stone bowl, spoon
parchment paper and a quill pen rests against a leather pouch

Fairies dance around the tree house in the round sphere on
the wall. Unicorns on black velvet stare back at him.
Dragons everywhere, with wizards, elves, and pegasus too.
A large book rests on the table next to a victorian chair.

The pungent odor of burning sage lingers in the air; while
incense mingles, to stir his emotions, of her stories, leaving
purple memories of warmth, love and chocolate chip cookies.
He turns with a sigh and slowly leaves his grandmother's room.

FANTASY
©1997

Beauty beyond belief wings above the clouds
turning it glides down towards the earth. Its many
faceted eyes looking through the darkened clouds
dispersing them with its very presence.

Red in color it makes the proclamation of its
unquenchable fire, proving it a formidable beast
The sun glitters off the irridescent scales, from
head to talon, in red,orange,gold,yellow,and pink.

Energy seems to be drawn in, Clinging to it, making
it appear the center of all that is unprincipled.
Bravery oozing from its every pore, while radiating
a power all its own, as glory is held in its sway.

Deadly yet gentle with a stout heroic heart, radiating
truth, light and darkness, A creature of destiny, for
it has been chosen to tame the fates themselves.
Symbolicaly holding man forever enchanted.

All encompassing, in knowledge, shrewd, yet valiant
All knowing, understanding, with a zeal for magic.
Complete fantasy, desire and dreams, is the Dragon

The
Celestial Dragon
As the noble animal symbol that represents Chinese emperors, Dragons
are born leaders and masters of ceremonies. And because of this,
every Chinese parent is hoping to have a dragon child.
Dragon children get things started and keep them moving. Most
people look up to the Dragon.





Dragons are born monarchs. As far as the eye can see, their power is
indisputable. Dragons are idealists,perfectionists, they are
born thinking they are perfect and they are inflexible.
Dragons also are aggressive and determined; going after what they
want is second nature to them. And due to their hunger for power,
Dragons are not well suited to growing old. The prospect of losing
power, the helpless feeling of youthful strength ebbing
away is unbearable to them.




Irritable and stubborn, the Dragon is a real big mouth and his words
often out run his thoughts. Nevertheless, his opinions are
worth listening to and his advice is always good. People do,
in fact, listen to him and his influence is considerable. The
Dragon is over-proud. He is enthusiastic to the point of
impetuosity, and he loses his temper easily.





Dragons are dauntless, dynamic and delightful. When a dragon enters a
gathering, the room starts to simmer. The Dragon carries a self-
assurance so impressive, an inflated ego so visible and a mouth
so loud that it is useless to try to tell him anything.





Dragons are tyrannical. They hate orders except when they are giving
them. Unlike the Tiger, who imposes his will seriously and
firmly, the Ox, whose authority is implied in his very stern
demeaner, or the Rat, who thrusts his dominion over others, the
Dragon knows innately how to exert authority yet is gentle
with his slaves. Dragons are terrible snobs. Although money is not
always the object, they are lavishly impressed by wealth,
prestige, rank and splendor.





The Dragon is gifted, intelligent, tenacious, willing and generous.
He can do anything. No matter whether the Dragon
chooses an artistic career, medical or political one, he is going
to shine in it. He will be a success wherever he goes.





The Dragon is often loved. He is never disappointed in love. In fact,
he is frequently the cause of some drama of despair. The
women of this sign are surrounded by admirers and often
demanded in marriage.





Compatibility
(1=least compatible, 100= most compatible)
Rat = 95; One of the best-arranged unions
Ox = 48; Don't, two of you will fight constantly
Tiger = 76; Despite minor difficulties, it's good for marriage
Rabbit = 85; Good team
Dragon = 34; They will always compete against each other
Snake = 63; This might work
Horse = 57; Love at first sight, but will go down hill
Goat = 74; A sound and stable relationship
Monkey = 82; Despite the differences, they'll do just fine
Rooster = 72; Balanced, but not passionate
Dog = 55; With reservations. The dog might suffer
Pig = 87; An excellent match
