In life, brilliant, a glimmering,
It comes invisibly upon us,
An old soul, the dragonfly,
(poem by ModestyBlaze, July, 1999)
The Dragonfly was one of the first creatures
Dragonflies do not live long.
They are fierce eaters and chew their food
The dragonfly is the totem of Moon Children,
Running Deer says:
To ModestyBlaze from Running Deer:
Step back from situations.
Due to the color of the wings,
You are very fortunate to have dragonfly as a totem,
Does anyone know who painted this painting????
~Hope you visit some of the other sites in Dragonflyblue~
a shimmery of light,
fluorescent sudden beauty,
the dragonfly!
stops instantly,
pauses for invited admiration,
and as quickly as it appeared, flies away.
an old soul winging its way up
from the muddy banks of
the River of Life...
It flew from the water on wings of light,
on wings of light!
to take wing from our waters,
one of the first to be that impatient for adventure,
that able...
one of the first winged creatures to explore the woods,
go back to our heavens in the sky.
It seems they come and go quickly,
exploring, marking out their territories,
laying their eggs, being born, taking wing.
with their mouths...
They even look like little dragons, don't they?
Dragonflies are incredible in their luminescence.
Their wings have a fluorescence that is breathtaking.
In flight they seem to glimmer, or shimmer,
thus they give flight to shimmerings and glimmerings,
the world of the spirit.
the Zodiac children of Cancer.
Dragonflies relish life and adventure,
are curious creatures, though quick to leave.
They are aquatic, water creatures.
Below is something Running Deer sent to me
about the Dragonfly as a totem.
"Animal "totems" can provide us with a greater
understanding of ourselves and
by using animal medicine,
we can strive for better balance of our spirit,
mind and body. Every animal
(bird, fish, mammal, reptile) has traits that we
can learn from to help us get through our
day to day activities, problems and survival."
"Water and air elements play important roles for
the dragonfly. Metamorphosis of course,
nymph to fly. (Nymph in the water, fly in the air).
Ability to change and adapt.
With the dragonfly be prepared to cleanse
emotionally frequently (which is good),and always
look at issues with clear eyes and mind.
They guard their territory~
make your home/room as pleasant as possible,
this is YOUR environment your personal haven.
Of course, the sun and light are important
as they are only seen in the day.
To balance yourself with Dragonfly
remember to enjoy evening time as well,
and moonlight.
remember to enjoy colors! *S*~
notice the color of the trees,
grass, sky, cars, clothing everything around you!
Enjoy color.
it serves people well.
Thank you for writing~"
Smooth Paths,
Running Deer
