Your heart will know when you have a significant life event that should be honored during your waking and sleeping moments. The event does not need to come with fanfare and celebration, barbeques and toasts. Significant life events are often the quietest of realizations, the most personal of inner knowings. They are the sexy lingerie you hide in the back of the drawer and pull out for that one special person, that one special moment.
Except in the spiritual case, that special person is you. The spiritual moment may be uniquely private to you and not involve a single other person. Of course, if you have people who are trustworthy and interested enough to share your inner awakenings, more power to you! Share away! But sometimes, the most significant moments will just be for you and the God you hold dear.
Dragonfly Medicine speaks of transformation and the awakening of ancient knowing. It heralds blooming within as it seeks blooms in the garden to rest upon and bask in the sun. Dragonflies are real warriors of light and have existed for centuries, eons even, to remind us of our growth and our constancy. Dragonfly is a popular medicine these days but it is a truly private one. When you see Dragonfly and feel yourself listening for messages, go within!!! The messages you need are already written in your heart. He is showing up to help you listen!
Ask yourself, ” What do I want most transformed in my life?” ” What can I do to help this transformation” and ” What do I want to become that I am not already?”
My prayer:
Great Spirit that flows through all things, light upon my heart with the steady flutter of dragonfly’s wings. Great Father Sun, shine your light upon this special heart and ignite my changes from within. Burn brightly enough to turn to ash all that I have outgrown and outloved. Shine brightly enough to illuminate even the most hidden, ancient places in my cells. I long to come into focus and shine. Come dragonfly! Teach me to bask in the light of my own truth and to become that who I already am. I am here, waiting to awaken. Jai! May there be victory to the Light!
