Dedicated to Leah, Travis and Zane

This is the story of the two snakes, the caduceus, two dragons, a lotus, a pearl and one woman.

Oh yes, and the rest of humanity.

was the inspiration for the story.

The Iridescent Pearl

One dragon had come from the deepest places of the earth.

So deep that though she had also come through water she was still on fire.

She held a pearl tightly between her teeth that she had

found in the depths. She knew it was for men. They

needed them.

This one however was even more special.

The Monkey

The MonkeyI forgot to mention the monkey. He has lived with the dragon for a long time.

He likes the smoke from the dragon and watches it make rings that float into the sky.

He was sitting on the back of the dragon as she flew.

She reached the last ridge of a very formidable mountain.

She was ecstatic.

The Dragon

As the large beautiful dragon shone in the sunlight she contemplated the meanings behind all of the symbols and

languages before her...

Page 9: The Iridescent Pearl

The Caduceus

Page 10: The Iridescent Pearl

The Caduceus

She saw two symbols by the ridge.

What are they here for?

two snakes, black and white

We are back to black and white, she thought.

The Caduceus

She noticed people traveling up the ridge and the snakes along side them, up and down, back and forth they go.

Some sat and meditated... they sat and sat while thinking long and hard.

The MonkeyAs the dragon was looking at everything that was going on the monkey took advantage of the dragon’s distraction and snatched

the pearl right out of the dragon’s tooth!

He thought it was a funny game and he began to clap his hands and laugh.

The dragon was not amused at all and whipped her tail quicker than you could even see and the pearl went flying into a nearby

lotus pond.

Page 15: The Iridescent Pearl

The Monkey

The monkey heard a splash as the pearl hit the water. The monkey thought certainly the pearl was at the bottom of the pond.

The monkey began to walk away sadly and slowly.

Then he was seen running over the ridge very quickly from the dragon’s angry fire.

Page 16: The Iridescent Pearl

The MonkeyThe monkey didn’t know the pearl went into a lotus bud still

under the mud.

The lotus was a very special lotus bud, it was pink and orange like a beautiful sunrise.

It just so happened that a baby dragon was swimming by

and heard the plop as the pearl was whipped into the water by

the large dragon’s tail.

Page 17: The Iridescent Pearl

The Baby DragonThe little dragon looked and looked in the mud for the pearl and

couldn’t find it.

This dragon was different. She had the colors of a purple and red

dragon fly. She had never seen anyone who looked like her before.

After a very long time of searching for the pearl she decided she needed to take a rest.

She found her cave and fell fast asleep.

Page 18: The Iridescent Pearl

The Baby Dragon

Dragons sleep for a very long time.

Baby dragons sleep even longer.

By the time she woke up it was no longer spring,

it was early summer.

Page 19: The Iridescent Pearl

The Little Dragon

When she woke up she was surprised to find her new

wings!

They were so brilliant in the sunshine.

She used them to swim first.

She loved to swim.

and the Lotus

Page 21: The Iridescent Pearl

The Little DragonAfter a short time she took to the skies above her little pond.

She noticed something shining in the sunlight. She wanted to

go see what it was.

It was inside a lotus blossom.

She found the pearl! It must have fallen into a lotus bud!

The lotus had opened while she slept.

The pearl was beautiful.

It had a sheen that she had never seen before.

She must give it to someone.

That’s all she knew. Who?

She decided she would give it away as soon as she found

someone who loved it too.

Page 25: The Iridescent Pearl

The Iridescent PearlShe knew from living here though that hardly anyone passed this way

and when they did they already had a pearl and went strait up the small

path to her right.

She noticed the other way which went part way up the mountain. It was always very crowded. It was the path that had the signs with the symbols on it.

Those people didn’t have pearls but they didn’t want one. They liked

their signs and they liked their paths and the people on their path with

them.

Page 26: The Iridescent Pearl

The Iridescent Pearl

She would wait.

Dragons know how to wait.

Sadly, she kept waiting for a very long time.

She became an adult dragon and she was still waiting.

Page 27: The Iridescent Pearl

The WomanOne day she was looking at her reflection in the small pond

and she saw a blind woman come to the water’s edge.

The woman could hear her breathing but could not see her.

Her sight was totally black.

Her hearing and and other senses however took over in place of her eyes.

She sat at the edge of the clear water and took a drink.

Page 28: The Iridescent Pearl

The Woman

She had been up and down the path with the symbols so many times she was getting weary and feeling old.

She felt like she had tried every path that she could find

only to find herself not quite to the top.

She wondered, can my blindness be stopping me?

Then she noticed the dragon’s breath.

Page 29: The Iridescent Pearl

The Gift

“Wise one”, the woman began, “why do you sit here alone?”

The woman smiled and said, “Yes, I can tell that you are a dragon. I may be blind...”

The dragon said, “I must do something before I can leave here and go to the mountains of dragons.”

“What is it?” the woman asked.

Page 30: The Iridescent Pearl

The Gift

“I must give something to someone who loves it as much as I do”, the dragon explained.

Page 31: The Iridescent Pearl

The Iridescent Pearl

“What is it?”, the woman asked.

“A pearl of unparalleled beauty. I have never seen anything so exquisite in my entire life”, the dragon told her.

The woman was beside herself with joy and the dragon

became puzzled.

The woman asked if the pearl was blue and green with

iridescence.

Page 32: The Iridescent Pearl

The Gift

The dragon thought, iridescence, that’s what you call it.

“Yes, woman, you know this pearl?”

“I found one like that one or it’s twin when I was a young girl. A nasty monkey stole it right out of my hand one day

as I held it to look at it.”

“He jumped down from a branch in a tree, snatched it and

ran back to the tree laughing at me.”

Page 33: The Iridescent Pearl

The Gift“I became so sad I could no longer see.”

She began to cry.

The dragon remembered so many years ago when she had been

little and had so loved the pearl. Her heart swelled.

She put the pearl in the woman’s hand.

A smile broke out on her face that was filled with peace and

complete joy.

Page 34: The Iridescent Pearl

The Woman She found peace and joy once

more.

Page 35: The Iridescent Pearl

The Iridescent Pearl

The dragon knew what she had to do at that moment.

She scooped the woman up and brought her to the small

path where others’ carried pearls up the last ridge to the very top of the mountain.

The dragon explained that this was the last path.

She promised.

Part II

Two Visions

Page 37: The Iridescent Pearl

The Dream

I had a strong meditation where I saw a man being given a pearl from someone in the mud.

I called out to the man, “Who are you?” He turned and began his ascent up the mountain and as he got higher, snow began to fall

on him as he climbed.

I lost sight of him as an older oriental man to my left caught my

eye. I realized I lost sight of the man going up the mountain.

Page 38: The Iridescent Pearl

The Dream con’t

Right after that I saw a yin yang but it was more of a

slurpy in consistency and it was yellow and purple.

Page 39: The Iridescent Pearl

InterpretationThe person in the mud was me.

I was in the mud handing a pearl to the man, who as visions or dreams often have it would be me too.

His travel up the mountain was to go see Jesus at the top to

give him his pearl as a key for the pearly gates.

I became distracted by the oriental man and he represents the myriad paths I have already traveled.

Page 40: The Iridescent Pearl

Interpretation con’t

The yellow and purple fluid yin yang were with the dream but separated.

The yin yang had no boundaries and was more fluid

than a circle.

The fluid was not smooth it had a lumpy consistency.

The trouble with some of these paths

I was talking with an energy worker from one energy form.

There are many kinds and types I have noticed.

She said one of the bad points of her profession was that it makes her poo all the time.

I’m thinking, does she, through the matter somehow gather other people’s negative aspects?

That’s horrible! I’d be down in the dumps!

Page 42: The Iridescent Pearl

Energy and MatterI had a vision of this woman’s work before I came in contact with her.

In my vision I came up from my level of the pit covered in so many black negative “things” that I felt covered as in an

impenetrable armor.

She then picked each one off me and she does this for many,

many people.

Page 43: The Iridescent Pearl

Energy and Matter

Afterwards I heard a man so gently say to me as he pulled

me up, “Come up here, my child.”

I haven’t seen who’s arm it is yet. I can guess.

I felt the last few being picked off.

I knew they were evil malevolence being picked off.

Now I know who took them off.
