I kept seeing a dog, what seemed to be a dragon, possibly the X rune, and maybe a female.
Idk if the dog is anubis. what do you think from these?
I would say, since you are the scryer you should be doing the interpretation based on what these images symbolically mean to you. Itâs similar to dream interpretation.
Not meaning to sound harsh, but, if you donât know how to interpret your own work why do it?

I think that @portion_traveler is asking for what others see in the flames. I donât really get the feeling of that she doesnât know how to read ?
After all itâs the doer that does he interpretation.
Or would you disagree with that statement @Mulberry ?

I think Iâm saying the same thing, at least I would hope the OP did thier own work, but that is not stated in the OPâŚ
Itâs not that useful to have a bunch of other people give you what dragons, dogs and random females mean to them. Itâs what they mean to the scryer that matters.
Not least because the kind of dog, dragon, nauthiz, (the âX runeâ) the history/background of these images to the operator and all the emotions and details that the operator saw in the living, dancing flames⌠and did not say above, are important.
I would go further, and say that itâs important to follow up on these images with research, and allow synchronicity to bring more meaning through that journey. It doesnât help then if other people tell you anything, because they canât do that personal work for you.
So this is the wrong question:
What others see in still shots of the flames is irrelevant at best and at worst, misleading and closes down the internal work the operator is supposed to be doing based on this experience. It becomes a waste of opportunity and effort.

I can agree to some extent on your opinion but some cases do need a second eye on it. Granted not this case but for me you make it sound like itâs always this way and itâs not. So this
is what I read from her question.
And got nothing to do with other cases right.
Not sure what âthisâ is since the text got cut off, but we will have to agree to disagree 
While itâs quite common for people to view someone elseâs targets accurately, they will still add thier own conscious interpretation that will be personal to them, not the OP. As a scryer thatâs not what you want, you donât need pollution from other people, you have to learn to trust your intuition or you will not develop it well and you can lose it.
This asking for others to tell you what you think, is a form of self doubt, and that gets in the way of your own magick.

That is very true but I take from her question that she has not worked that long with magic therefore the question. But yes it fuels the uncertainty of the object in question to ask.
Yes exactly, in this case getting other people butting in with thier interpretation is the worst thing you can do.
It gets in the way of learning, if they see something different it encourages more self doubt, ("why didnât I see that, am I bad at this?") and can block off the impetus to learn and to research the symbols from a personal perspective. And as I said, that research could be the most important part, where synchronicity take you to places you would not find otherwise.
It does no good to give learners your answers when they need to do the work to understand it and themselves.
See @portion_traveler Iâll give you an example, to me, these things mean the following⌠thee might align for you, and if they donât thatâs okâŚ
- Dogs ⌠hounds of hell, protectors, look up black spectral dogs
- Dragons ⌠conduits of energy, good luck, wisdom
- Nauthiz ⌠âNeed fireâ, means life lessons and urgency
- Female ⌠Yin energy, receiving
Add it up, you are being told you have protection and are in a state of receiving wisdom, because you are a learner, you must learn this as a life lesson, that you are capable of learning anything you need to to bring good energy and luck into your life.
I just made that up, as anyone would⌠itâs generic pap, full of my opinion coming from my conscious mind, not whatâs real in your subconscious, and might hit some spots and be wrong in others, itâs the wrong parts that could give you self doubt you donât agree. Youâre at the stag eof learning where itâs very important you learn to trust yourself, not lean on others to spoon feed you the answers.

i find asking what others think. helps. doesnât mean iâm going to believe it or go off of it solely thatâs why itâs called an opinion or feedback from someone.

yk i see this site as the least from helpful. i tend to feel unwelcome.
Are you here to learn or to feel welcomed? Part of magick is being challenged. Challenges make us grow.
Plus, youâve seen some of the content here. People work with spirits who donât sugarcoat anything - so why should we sugarcoat?
With respect to all involved, asking for opinions on scrying does miss the entire point of scrying - itâs about the Operator alone and not opinions of others.

I do agree with you, however I also find sharing and mutually discussing helps grow bonds and strengthen a community which in my opinion sorely needs it.
Not alot of lhp or fellow magic community to go around, and thus some people use this forum as a way to express and socialize which includes things as a friendly, âwhat do you see when you scy thisâ

Donât feel unwelcome because of some comments. Nothing rude was said, just talking back and forth. I think reading text can cause us to come off differently and itâs easy to take it the wrong way.
This is a great place to learn due to some of the âdebatesâ held under topics and the huge selections of posts. Donât take things personallyđ besides youâre new and still getting your footing with everything, same here!
Best wishes on your journey.
