Meaning of the Dragonfly…..

The dragonfly has been known as a symbol of light, adaptability, grace & transformation. It is regarded as a "light-bearer" & a symbol of love because of it's ability to reflect & refract light.
Dragonflies remind us that we, too, are "light-bearers" and remind us to let our own inner light shine. Dragonflies exhibit the many colors of life. With maturity, the dragonflies own true colors come forth, as it learns to bend, shift and adapt light in a variety of ways. These bright colors take time to develop, but are always worth the wait because they ultimately reveal the insects deepest inner beauty. The dragonfly demonstrates the upmost adaptability and grace as well. No bird or other insect has the flight maneuverability of the dragonfly, which can quickly change directions when necessary. They are experts at going where they need to be and doing what they need to do. Traditionally, the dragonfly is a symbol of transformation and life's ever-constant process of change. Although the dragonfly spends the majority of it's life on the bottom of a pond as a larvae, it always rises above that. The dragonfly works it's way through the weight of water and into the sunlight, gathering what it needs to change and unfold. When it is ready, it sheds it's protective casing & flies away from the pond, to ultimately unite with other dragonflies, which have also completed their transformation and are even more vibrant and alive.
