Draconian Initiation Apprenticeship
(The Path of The Dragon)

The Draconian Initiation Apprenticeship is not a course. It is a crucible. This is a path for those who are called—not by comfort, but by the whisper of something ancient, primal, and sovereign. Rooted in left-hand path philosophy, intense shadow work, and the embodiment of dragon gnosis, this apprenticeship leads initiates through a series of intense inner alchemical transformations that are life-long. 

What is The Draconian Current

The Draconian current is the primal energy of creation and destruction, the raw pulse of chaos and power that underlies all existence. From an initiatory standpoint, the Draconian Current is the flame of true godhood that burns away illusion, limitation, and servitude. It is the current of self-deification.

To align with this current is to awaken the Dragon within - the embodiment of sovereignty, shadow mastery, and limitless becoming. You are not worshipping a deity. You are becoming one.

This current flows through ancient serpentine archetypes: Tiamat, Leviathan, Kingu, and the mythic dragons that guard the gates of transformation across cultures. These are not just external forces, but they are keys to unlocking your own inner gateways.

When you step onto the Draconian Path, you are not learning information, but remembering. And in that remembrance, you are reborn.

Meet Your Mentor

My goal as your mentor is to hold you within a sacred and protected space to allow you to safely delve deep into your healing process. We will work together in harmony with great spirit to facilitate the transformation that you are ready to reach. 

My way of working is direct and to the point. My practice of Shamanism will not bypass anything and instead, will work to address the roots in terms of why certain events, illnesses and perceptions are prominent in one's life, in order to work with them to heal the root.

The Aim of The Apprenticeship

The core aim of the Draconian Initiation Apprenticeship is to give the initiate the necessary training, practically and theoretically in order to prepare and guide them through their initiatory process spiritually, psychologically, and energetically, for the alignment to the current, working with the spirits and eventually, the descent into the Qliphothic Realms: the personal underworld/hell structure, the dark mirror of the Tree of Life, and the realm of true becoming.

This is the path of the Nightside, where one confronts the raw, untamed powers of the subconscious and the shadow-self. Each Qlipha (sphere) represents both an obstacle and a gateway - a guardian and a guide. Initiation into these realms is not symbolic; it is experiential and irreversible. 

 

Overview of what is included:
 

Igniting the flame of godhood
Learn and perform powerful rites designed to ignite your inner fire and awaken the Draconian current within your being.

Serpentine Ascent
Engage in guided meditations, dream work, and sigil magic to raise your personal energy and align with draconic archetypes and daemonic allies.

Shadow Integration
Face and integrate the fragmented aspects of your psyche. The dragon fears nothing—not even itself.

Sacred Texts & Hidden Lore
Decode occult grimoires, channel the wisdom of the Void, and study the teachings of Tiamat, Leviathan, and primordial powers.

 

Ongoing Trials of Transformation
Customised spiritual challenges will test your will, shape your path, and prove your readiness for the next level of initiation.

The Process of Preparation


Forging the Adept Before the Descent

 

Initiation into the Qliphoth is not merely a step on a path—it is a fall through fire. The Draconian Apprenticeship exists to forge the kind of being who can walk through that inferno and emerge crowned. This is not intellectual work, but soul work. The preparation unfolds across several key phases, each designed to awaken, strip, and strengthen the self before the gates of the Nightside open.

1. Foundation of the Self: Building the Inner Fortress
 

Before you confront the outer chaos, you must master your inner world. This phase focuses on:

  • Ritual Discipline: Establishing daily and weekly practices to root the initiate in rhythm and spiritual momentum.

  • Energetic Fortification: Techniques in breathwork, grounding, energy circulation, and protective warding.

  • Psycho-Spiritual Hygiene: Cleansing of emotional residue and psychic parasites that weaken your field.

  • Invocation & pathworking with the spirits of the current for alchemical processes.
    Only a strong vessel can channel Draconian fire.

2. Alignment with the Current: Becoming the Flame

 

The Draconian Current is alive. You must resonate with it to move safely and powerfully through the initiatory process. This phase includes:

  • Active initiation rites: Working with living symbols & gates of the Draconian Path to open the gateways of inner gnosis.

  • Mantra & Vibrational Keys: Chanting ancient words of power to attune the subtle bodies to Nightside frequencies.

  • Draconic Embodiment Rituals: Ceremonies to awaken your inner dragon—your primal, sovereign, transpersonal Self.

This is not connection. It is communion.

3. Shadow Excavation: The Ritual of the Mirror

 

No being enters the Qliphoth unscathed—but those unprepared are often shattered. This phase is designed to purge the initiate of the inner illusions that would betray them later:

  • Guided Shadow Journeys: Meditations to descend into your own subconscious and retrieve repressed material.

  • Journaling & Dream Recording: Mapping the symbols, patterns, and visitors that arise in altered states.

  • Ego-Dismantling Rites: Rituals that peel away false identities and emotional armor.

You must know yourself to face yourself—and survive.

4. Invocation of Inner Guardians: Forming the Pact

 

No one walks the path alone. This phase facilitates more direct contact with guiding intelligences and archetypal forces who walk with initiates of this path:

  • Daemon/Archetype Work: Structured invocations of Nightside allies such as Lilith, Samael, Naamah, and Hecate.

  • Dream Sigils & Astral Contact: Techniques to draw these entities into your dreams or astral temple for direct communion.

  • Blood or Breath Pacts (Optional): Ceremonial acts of binding intention and loyalty to the Path.

These forces are not to be controlled—they are to be respected, invoked, and allied with.

5. Ritual Gatekeeping: The Opening of Nahemoth
 

The culmination of the apprenticeship is the Gate Rite—a ritual in which the initiate formally begins the Qliphothic descent by opening the first sphere: 

  • Solo or Guided Rite: Performed at midnight or during a planetary alignment, depending on your current.

  • Oath of Becoming: A spoken or written declaration of your commitment to transformation and transcendence.

  • Initiatory Threshold Crossing: Often marked by a dream, synchronicity, or visionary event that signifies the beginning of real inner change.

 

This is where apprenticeship ends—and initiation begins. I can still be your guide through the process of the ongoing Qliphothic initiations but I take a much more passive role as this is a process that needs to be undertaken by you and you only.
