Dragonfly...

I've noticed in the last couple months a...calling, I guess. A pull. I feel the need to explore dragonflies - the way their wings are shaped, all crystalline and delicate. The beautiful colours they iridesce. They're swift, free little pretty-shinies; I'd want to collect them if I could.

This weekend kinda capped off a long suspicion that Dragonfly has been trying to get my attention; I saw so many sweet little flying jewels in the yard while I was out playing bohemian barefoot witch. Three of them landed on me, at various points in time; a sacred number. So I'm paying heed, and trying to figure out what they're saying.

In doing research here, my reoccurring water/library dream has become entwined in the process. This is what Animal Spirits puts forth as some lessons Dragonfly offers:

Mastery of life on the wing

Power of flight

Power to escape a blow

Understanding dreams (*important, ne?*)

Power of light

Breaking down illusions

Seeing the truth in situations

Swiftness

Change

Connection to Dragon

Well, I read these, and it makes sense. Dragonfly has probably been in the background the whole time since Imbolg, but I haven't seen her until now. I hope that she can help me find the meaning of this dream, since it seems so important...and she is still here to teach me, so I hope I will learn. It will come; until then, I am content to bask in delight over Dragonfly's glowing colours.
