The Dragonfly

Dragonfly eggs are laid within their territory near the water.
Once hatched, these nymphs will live nearly two years on the
bottom of streams and ponds. As they reach adulthood an
amazing thing occurs, they transform into dragonflies and
ascend to the air. In the air, they travel with wings that sparkle
with spectacular colors by reflecting and refracting light and
other colors. No insect or bird can maneuver as well as a
dragonfly. Flying up to 30 mph, they will twist, turn, move
up and down, fly backwards, even change directions
instantaneously and still will spot movement 40 feet away.

The power of Dragonfly lies in its ability to see around things
by looking from different angles. Using its ability to transform
colors and lights by reflecting and refracting them, Dragonfly
shows us that life, like light, can bend, shift, and adapt in
various ways, making life’s appearance never be what it
appears to be. Dragonfly’s magic shows us to see through
life’s illusions and find our true vision. It calls us to transform
within our lives and reminds us to feel deeply so we will have
the compassion necessary to help ourselves and others.

The Dragonfly lives a short life, and it knows it must live to the
fullest with what it has. This lesson is huge for each of us. When
you see a dragonfly, be aware of the gifts it has to offer and let’s
keep our waterways clean, so we can enjoy this wonderful creature
for generations to come.
