Dragonfly
symbolism crosses and combines with that of the butterfly and
change. The dragonfly symbolizes going past self-created illusions
that limit our growing and changing.
Dragonflies
are a symbol of the sense of self that comes with maturity.
They are fantastic flyers, darting like light, twisting, turning,
changing direction, even going backwards as the need arises.
They are
inhabitants of two realms - starting with water, and moving
to the air with maturity, but staying close to water. Some people
who have the dragonfly as their totem have had emotional and
passionate early years, but as they get older they achieve balance
with mental clarity and control. They gain an expression of
the emotional and mental together.
