Dragon of Respectful Simplicity
Dragon of Respectful Simplicity guides you through a season of gentle reduction, inviting you to clear away all that is excessive or distracting so that what truly matters comes into bright focus. This is not about deprivation, but about discovering the richness found in honoring the essentials—beauty, meaning, and authenticity shining through uncluttered space.
Letting go is an art, and this card calls for mindful gratitude, humble restraint, and the wise use of resources. Practice giving freely, even when it seems you have less to offer—humility is a quiet strength, and generosity, however simple, multiplies your abundance in ripple effects. In creating spaciousness, new inspiration flows and connections deepen; possessions diminish, but significance and peace expand.
True decrease is an affirmation of trust: trusting the flow of life to replenish what is needed, and trusting that with less clutter, both inner and outer, your clarity and good fortune will quietly bloom. Release old ambitions, discard outdated attachments, and let go of emotions that no longer serve. Each act of reduction reveals the elegant grace that lives within simplicity.
Dragon of Respectful Simplicity reminds you that freedom, inspiration, and a gentle luck are found not in accumulation, but in living with respect for what is true and essential. Celebrate the joy in what remains, and notice how each simple treasure multiplies its meaning and impact in your life.

The tour guide Arjun is a lovely, knowledgeable and very chatty person to be on a tour with. We were five people only and had the time of our lives by getting to know many parts of London and stories you wouldn't get otherwise. Arjun chatted with us on whatever came to our mind between the sights and we had such great talks about a plethora of things. If you are into mythical stuff, history, symbols, gods and mysteries besides the dragons and into finding hidden places in London, this is for you! Thanks a lot for that great experience. read less Oskar Leonard Baron10/29/2024Great, engaging and informative tour The guide was exceptionally knowledgeable and took great care to individualize the information.

He is very knowledgeable about the subjects he talks about throughout the tour, which centres around the spiritual connections behind much of the symbolism and iconography throughout the architecture and landmarks within the City. I really appreciated that although he had much knowledge to share, he also intuitively allowed us the space to contemplate the spaces and topics for ourselves during moments in between, and did not try to cram too much in and nothing felt forced. The pace was easy to follow and very easy to walk. read less Alice6/11/2025Magical mystical tour of Stonehenge and Avebury! We had an absolutely unforgettable tour of Stonehenge and Avebury!

Arjun was truly one of the best guides we’ve ever had—knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate from start to finish. He brought the history and mystery of both sites to life in a way that made the entire experience feel special and personal.
He shared stories, answered every question with enthusiasm, and made sure everyone in the group felt included. We walked away not only with beautiful memories, but with a deeper appreciation for these incredible places.
If you’re considering this tour, don’t hesitate—especially if you’re lucky enough to have a guide like ours. It was a day we’ll be talking about for a long time! read less Melanie Krugel11/26/2025 - Deep understanding of the fascinating history of the City of London Arjun was an excellent guide and it was obvious he had a deep understanding of the fascinating history of the City of London.

Full of iconography, our guide was very knowledgeable and gave us lots of interesting facts & perspectives on history & the events that makes London City what it is today.

Arjun infuses the dragon mythology with history and mysticism so you will definitely learn something new,been if you know the area well. We also stopped by the Mithraeum and did the immersive experience (I had been before but it was really nice to go again with a guide). You can tell Arjun has really thought through the route and the stories he tells. We had a lovely chat afterwards too, he has a lot of time for questions and feedback.

We learned lots of London history, and were also helped to see some shared ancestorial connections with other cities/countries, too. These show up in repeated shapes, forms and symbols scattered around the old City of London, most of which I'd never know to notice before. I particularly liked the pace of this tour, and that there was a lovely balance of exciting mysticism with real history. It was a mind/body/spirit exercise, with a wonderful guide who you can see loves his work. We enjoyed a peaceful, thoughtful afternoon and can recommend this tour wholeheartedly! read less Christy9/14/2024 - DRAGON CITY TOUR It was such a pleasure to go on this tour and listen to the stories and anedoctes Arjun has to offer!

We learned about Druids and Romans at a pace we could take it all in.

Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and, despite it being just the two of us, went out of his way to create a truly personalised experience.
