Dragon as a personification of Chaos, elemental forces of the Universe. The symbolism of the Dragon is dual in nature: it can be solar and lunar, carry the energy of yin or yang, evil or good.
The desert is a symbol of figurative sterility, vain hopes and expectations, loneliness and renunciation, as well as a place for reflection, a quiet divine revelation. The woman is “locked up” in her dark thoughts, and her consciousness gives rise to the ruthless Dragon incinerating her body. In this case, the Dragon is a product of human fears, the Dragon of self-destruction, where a person tries to hide in his own little world. And it’s important to learn how to simply open the door of the cage and release let out the real self into the world, to see reality in true colors and shades!
The opposite meaning is the Dragon as a driving force in the formation of the Ego, a symbol of frustration, when falling into the difficult circumstances of the mental desert, a person is reborn from the ashes like a Phoenix bird in a completely new hypostasis.
