This is stupid. Mythological dragons often have the ability to shapeshift into human form. Some humans have been referred to figuratively as "dragons" due to possessing draconic traits. The Bible mentions dragons in an obviously figurative manner. The word can mean basically any sort of powerful reptile or Reptilian or Saurian. Ooparts in coal demonstrate that there was civilization long before Humans, presumably of the small intelligent dinosaurs whose skeletons we presently misassemble into species such as Compsognathus.
> I suppose you'd have to ask Hermes.
So Hermes Tresmigistus was a Reptilian or Repterran.

Perhaps the scroll is gold letters on an emerald tablet, a very Saurian aesthetic.

> True, without falsehood, certain, and most true: What is below is like what is above, and what is above is like what is below, to accomplish the miracles of one thing. And as all things were derived from one by the meditation of one, so all things are born from this one thing by adaptation. The Sun is its father, the Moon is its mother, the Wind has carried it in its belly, its nurse is the Earth. The father of all telesms of the whole world is here. Its power is whole if it is converted into Earth. You will separate the Earth from the Fire, the subtle from the dense, gently and with great skill. It ascends from Earth to Heaven, and then it descends again to Earth, and receives the power of the superiors and the inferiors. Thus, you will have the glory of the whole world; and all darkness will flee from you. This is the strong force of all forces, overcoming every subtle thing and penetrating every solid thing. Thus, the world was created. From this, marvelous adaptations will arise, of which the manner is here. Therefore, I am called Hermes Trismegistus, having the three parts of the philosophy of the whole world. What I have said about the operation of the Sun is accomplished and ended.
Egoic personal ascension via harmony with Source, the 4 elements and the balance of Heaven and Earth. Repterran Consciousness flowers plausibly herein.
