Sacred Messages: Dragonflies

This year has seen many ups and downs, and now a whole community of Dragonflies are popping up all over the place it seems. According to Ted Andrews from his classic, Nature Speak, the Dragonfly represents a time of transformation, metamorphosis, and change, but above all things, they teach us to walk in the light. This is seen by them only being active during the day, Andrews also goes on to say that their deceptively beautiful colors are just that, an illusion caused by light refraction, so their presence also alludes to seeing through these illusions and finding the truth. For me personally, I see their coming to be auspicious, and to also awaken those of us who have had a difficult two years to the message that all will soon be well.  I have also received the message to pass on to you that just as the Dragonfly overcomes the mosquito, so will you overcome your troubles, and also those who have caused you many woes, as long as you walk in the light and stay true to what you know is right. This is also a time, speaking of blood suckers and mosquitoes, to take care of any unnecessary spending, and get to the bottom of those holes in your budget, but to do this you must be real with yourself and see where you are having problems in your finances: it won't take care of itself or go away on its own, also if it comes in pretty packaging, it usually also comes at a pretty price, so do be aware-that is something else the Dragonfly seems to herald, awareness. There are so many sacred messages around us everyday and when we take the time stop and look around, we find that nature and Creator are always showing us ways to understand why we are going through things in our life, and also, especially with the Dragonfly, how to recognize when the Sun will come to rise again. So be sure to get outside in the Sun, listen to music that lifts you up, and stay on the cheery side, things are looking up!
