Dragonflies and You!
In this post, we’ll take a look at the Dragonfly. A very powerful little being that has always reminded me of faeries.
The dragonfly has always played a big role in old religions and beliefs. Everyone from the Vikings to the celts, to the Native Americans worshipped Dragonflies.
What does the dragonfly symbolize?
The thing that makes dragonflies so unique and special is that they have very short lives. They don’t have any time to waste, so when they are near you, you can bet they have a VERY good reason.
Usually, they are there to tell you something important. If you are very stressed, always thinking about the past or what you need to do, chances are that a dragonfly will pay you a visit.
It’ll be there to tell you, that you should remember to be in the moment and maybe that you need to change some things in your life.
Also, when you are in a bad relationship, wasting your time at work or worry too much, they like to pay a visit to tell you about how you can change and make a transformation in your life.
Here’s some common meanings of the Dragonfly:
- Change and transformation
- Adaptability
- Joy, lightness of being
- Symbol of the realm of emotions, invitation to dive deeper into your feeling
- Being on the lookout for illusions and deceits, whether are external or personal
- Connection with nature’s spirits and fairies
What does it mean when a dragonfly is near you?
A Dragonfly will usually communicate with you, by being in your presence. Again, remember that their lives are very short, so if they take the time to be near you, it is because it’s important. They don’t waste their time!
If you don't live in a place where dragonflies naturally are, you might find that you start to dream about them or suddenly see Dragonfly merchandise everywhere.
It’s a pretty odd phenomena, but it happens more often than you would think.
It’s usually just another way for them to communicate with you.
So, what does it mean when you suddenly have dragonflies following you or when you start to see them in your dreams?
Again, a dragonfly is usually all about transformation, change and being present in the moment.
So, if you suddenly see them all over, it’s probably because you are getting caught up in the past or spend you time worrying over stuff you shouldn't worry about (like things you cannot control anyway).
See it as a sign that you need to wake up. That you should cherish your life. Every single moment.
Life is extremely short and you shouldn't waste it by worrying about things you cannot change or have no control over. Live live fully and enjoy yourself. Adapt to new situation and change and don’t get stuck in the past.
What if there is no Dragonflies around?
Even if you live at a place where there isn’t any dragonflies or if they never come to you, you can still make use of their power by wearing a dragonfly pendant or having merchandise (I believe a pendant is better because you can have it on you at all times).
A dragonfly pendant might not be as “in your face” as a real life dragonfly, but if you let it, it will serve as a reminder to be joyful and be in the now (or whatever you are dealing with where a dragonfly can help).
A pendant can also be a good companion for when you are trying to make some changes in your life. It will help you with new beginnings, creating new and better habits and sticking to them.
Summary
- Dragonflies don't waste time. If you see them near you, there is a reason for it.
- You cannot summon dragonflies, but a dragonfly pendant can give you some of the same benefits as a real life dragonfly.
- Dragonflies will tell you to live you life and remind you not to waste it. They will tell you to be joyful and to make the most out of every moment. Sometimes, that requires you to make some hard choices and to change your lifestyle.
What’s your experience with dragonflies?
When was the last time you saw one and why do you think that was?

Excellent article! Last summer, I was on break at work.. I looked down, and there was a dragonfly, tucked under the armrest of the bench upon which I was sitting. When I came out for lunch, it was still there… My last break, it had disappeared. Not sure WHY it was there, but I always felt it was a magical harbinger!

I remember as a child being chased by one and being very scared of them but only seen them randomly and never knew why, i wish I wasn’t so scary as a child lol
Wanda
When I finally decided to take charge of my life and make my life changes I began my journey and acquainted myself with my path and took my first ever vacation and one of the first things I bought myself was a dragonfly necklace and it has brought me much joy and has been with me ever since, so I do believe the benefits of this symbol and all the beliefs that go with it.

Dragonflies have always pulled me into the moment. Now I understand why, they are teaching me to appreciate Every moment as I do the few I have with them
Gail
I have always loved a dragonfly!!! I always “just” knew" they were magikal..when my 1st grandson was born..(in Hawaii) I only got to see a photo of him..right away I thought he sorta resembles a dragonfly…well needless to say that became our secret nickname for him and he loves it …i got a tattoo of one also. I seem to attract them too…hmmmm??
Jennifer
I was sitting in my car in the country about 1000 ft away from a man made lake with my then significant other and one landed on my car door right next to me. My significant other and I were in a serious conversation. I look over and see it looking at me. It let me keep a few pictures of it while it was starring at me. I felt a sense of calmness come over me. Was a beautiful site.

I was at the river with my God son ,I was out in the water when at least 20 to 30 dragonfly landed on me all different colors it was awesome!!!
Karen
After my Dad passed away I saw a dragonfly as blue as my Dad’s eyes. I was drawn to it, me, the one who is terrified of all things ’buggy.

I see them every summer. And I have always taken that a change was coming. When we were building our home we had dragonflies and butterflies( i associate them with my mom) all over the property, no matter what time of day I was there. I love seeing dragonflies and yes they remind of fairies.
JB Gold
I use to see Dragonflies every where, that was before I S. CA. When I moved to the Dakotas, I saw tons of those graceful creatures. Yesterday I saw a red one a green one and two blue. Sometimes they will land on your and if you stand very still

I have always loved dragonflies.
I have a dragonfly tattoo of each of my grandchildren on my ankle, It started when my first grandson was born, upon walking out of the hospital after his birth a dragonfly landed on my chest and stayed with me until I got to my car, when I returned to the hospital later that night, I swear the same dragonfly landed on me again.

I ALWAYS have dragonflies, butterflies and lady bugs visiting me. The other day was the anniversary of my grandmother’s passing, which was her choice bc she was on dialysis and was definitely not living her normal, active life anymore, so she requested to stop treatment. I got to see her a week before she passed, and was supposed to bring my baby girl back to Florida to meet her before she passed, but I had a grand mal seizure and was unable to fly, esp with an 18 month old child. So that has always upset me, and I was thinking about her a lot the other day- and all of a sudden, for the rest of the day, there were dragonflies EVERYWHERE I went! I mean EVERYWHERE! And I hadn’t seen any in a while before that day. I felt like she had a hand in that happening. I get feelings when loved ones who have passed are around. It seems to run in my mother’s side of the family. All the women on that side have always “known things” that you really wouldn’t know unless you’re sensitive and have some kind of psychic ability or gift. Anyway after that day, I haven’t seen any around. It was like a message letting me know she’s with me and to keep on keeping on the right track. I get signs all the time. My hubs gets freaked out by it, but I can feel that the energy around is good and loving, not anything scary or out to get us. My daughter gets the same feelings. 💝🦋🐞🍀☮

I’ve had a dragonfly land on me once

What a beautiful post. I love dragonflies. It is funny my last sighting was a week or two ago. I have been thinking alot lately about a dear friend I lost recently who was a big part of my life and because of her loss part of my world has turned upside down. I have been obsessing and stressing because of the change in my life. It was within the last week I said to myself I really need to adapt and move on which has brought some peace. Maybe it was a tiny little dragonfly who helped nudge me along. <3 If it was I just want to say thank you
Kathryn
Every since my father passed away I see them frequently especially when I have a situation going on that I’m not sure what to do about it. Even when my kids see them they say Grandpa is here or we are supposed to be here. One situation my second daughter had very premie twins girls we were scared and didn’t know the outcome. The day my daughter came home from the hospital with out the girls she was so stressed and upset understandably. I had the feeling I needed to go out side and I looked over time top of the house and there was a swarm of Dragonflies. I thanked my Dad told him I loved him, went in the house and told my daughter what happened. We both started crying knowing that everything was going to be fine.
Melanie
Just saved the second of two dragonflies over the past month, who have gotten stuck in the grill of our vehicle! A green one, and a blue one. Thankfully we were able to get them out and they flew off! :) This has never happened to me before!
Peggy
I see them all the time. I am fascinated by them love them. Love them even more now. I just started a new job and it has been a difficult transition.
Jeff
It has been a very long time since I have seen a dragonfly. Just now in the post you sent to me has touch me so.Many years ago I lost my wife to a disease,a little over a year later I lost my youngest daughter to a auto wreck. They both have been on my mind completely for a long time. It has held me back from living in the present. The dragonfly shows me that my life is also short. I am 64 years old and need to start living my life with joy and love again. Thanks for the post and with my Lord and Ladies help I can start to live again. Blessed Be dear one for your timing is perfect.

I lost my hoise to fire recently, and as i was sifting through the ash looking for any little keepsake that might have survived, a dragonfly landed on my shoulder. I spoke to it and after a second it flew away. As i looked to tge direction it was flying i say a shimmer. It was from an Emerald ring my great aunt left me. She always said it was powerful. Not even the slightest smoke damage. I looked up and dragonflies were everywhere. She said when alive that they were used to communicate in the afterlife.
Angelia Nunley
I really appreciate this information. In the last 30 days I have been seen dragonflies everywhere-often several at the same time.

I am not of the Wiccan faith. Truthfully I signed up for this out of curiosity and so I could understand the religion better. I do not however believe that Wicca and Witchcraft can go hand in hand. It is my opinion that Witchcraft is just that—a craft, very much like being an artisan. It is not a religion. That being said, however people choose to view it, is up to them. I do however, believe that the dragonfly signifies the spirit of a loved one who has passed on, watching over those left behind. I have seen the same 2 dragonflies on my porch step, one was black with white wings, the other black with transparent wings.

Today, while waiting in a drive through for coffee, a orange dragonfly hovered beside my car; each time my car moved the dragonfly followed. I then drove about 10 miles to a store and low and behold I get out of my car a an orange dragonfly hovered right in front of me. I went into the store for about 40 minutes, came out and the orange dragonfly was still hovering at my car. Could this have been the same dragonfly from when I was 10 miles away? And why was it following me?
Anissa
Well iv been seeing them here a lot lately…always see them around if not flying then in charms lol.. Thus one hit home
Hayden
I am about to lose my job due to the pandemic and major changes are on my horizon. I’ve rarely seen any dragonflies in my back yard for years ..until this past week. The first one was blue and stayed for awhile almost like a pet. The second one was orange and only hung around for a day. The third was actually pink.
LynJon

Lillian Tamatha Smith
Just seen a dragonfly last week in my flower garden, he was beautiful, took some pictures of him, he didn’t seem to mind that I was there, later that day I went to work and I noticed a lot of people with dragonfly tattoos or jewelry or picture of them, this makes sense now! Thank you!
Kathleen
I almost forgot,but I think it was around the same time of year and around the same area! So awesome. Plus I’m getting a dragonfly tattoo for one of my family members that has passed. Heeant alot to me. My brother….❤️
Lori Harris
I never knew that about dragonflies i always thought they bring good luck . When i go out or sit in the parking lot waiting for my ride a dragonflies flies down to where I’m sitting or it flies past when I’m walking or flies over the van or car that i get into and always thought they were good luck had good luck everytime i see one but for the past summer i haven’t seen none till a few days ago flying over the van i got out of.
Kathleen
I seen a dragon fly the other day, it made me feel joy. It really did! Yes it’s my spirit animal and I was told an eagle is another one.
Kimi

A few weeks ago I was having a lot of depression, oppression and anxiety and have been woofing about things obsessively and just wishing I could go back and change things in my life. I just turned 51 and have a lot of reservations and fears about getting older and every time I came outside there were black dragonflies with white wings everywhere. They have two wings on each side and I had to do a.double take because they look like ministry toy planes. But they are beautiful. Since then, the last week I have been feeling much better emotionally. And ya know, I have not seen one dragonfly. Not one.
Linda
Where I live there are dragonflies:), a lot of times I will see them along the fence. Few weeks ago there was one on my porch a lot of times when you get close they’ll fly but usually land back in same spot but sometimes if you hold your finger out they’ll land on you, and that’s just what this one did. My daughter, and niece got excited. They are so neat and pretty and fun to watch!
Donna Cleckner
I was walking outside today and there were about 20 dragonflies flying around me in the yard. I have never seen that many in my life! I have really been stressing lately and then after reading this article, I understand why they were there.
Nathalie
I have a very big blue dragonfly that sits by my window and lets me touch him.
SARAH WRIGHT
I have a pretty little dragonfly tattooed on the side of my leg above the ankle. To help me stay focused in the here and now and remember to enjoy life to the fullest. Was just visited for a short moment a few days ago which helped bump me out of a slump as we don’t see them often in our yard. Some bad news from the doctor had me rethinking thru a lot of things when I should have been focusing on fighting as i always have. The little guy stopped and perched on the deck rail not 6 inches away from me and reminded me to make the most of what I have. Love the little creatures!!
Elaine
I very rarely see dragonflies and most are posts on facebook! I love dragonflies as they remind me of faries. I always feel positive when I see one!!!
Tammy French
Love this post, I see them all the time, especially on the lake.
Jessica Todd
I’m always seeing dragonflies! My sister in law is obsessed!
Sid
I love this post, because I love dragonflies! I have 3 dragonfly tatoos on my back, each one’s body spells the name of my kids… Joshua, Jack, and Hannah. I am fortunate enough to be surrounded by dragonglies almost everyday, because I live on the Elk River in Northeast Oklahoma. Dragonflies make me feel at peace with myself and the world.. they love to hang out with me… They land on me all the time and don’t mind if I splash a little water on myself to cool off. My mom says I’m a dragonfly whisperer, lol…. It’s so cool when they mate because sometimes their tales will make a perfect heart shape. They are little treasures that make me happy!
Richard Merchant
About a month ago, one flew in my car as i was getting ready to drive out of my driveway. Scared the shit out of me. Im guessing now that was a face to Fairy in counter. Really didnt know the implications of them being around at the time. Got my attention though. And im recalling now it was a pretty stressful month. And if i recall, it was when one of my sons got a DUI and it cost me alot of money and time with court and driving him to work. We got though it and he ended up moved out got a job all in the next month. Things just seamed to come together. Thanks Sylphs…
Cassandra
I saw 4-5 of them following me as I walked to work this afternoon after lunch. It was after a heavy rainstorm that flooded my complex.
I have been worrying about my finances then.
Corrine Ann
There is a big black one around my home..
But today as traveling i went to take a photo with my cell and a small pretty colored one landed on corner of my cell as i was taken pictures…
Roger McLennan
I’ve had them come close at times, but then, I didn’t know how to communicate with them. But they did seem to want me to understand something. But I couldn’t put 2 and 2 together, to know how to know what I was supposed to do.
Nosh
Been looking for the courage to go look for a live work studio. Today I went to meet a realestate agent who gave me a my first walk through. Starving so After Went through the drive threw @kfc and some guy out of no where pulls up in front of me and buys my order ..so wierd. But at that moment I was distracted by a orange dragon fly flying in front of my window for a few minutes. Thereafter Im waiting for a friend and another dragon fly lands on my car while I wait. Now I’m smoking a cigar at my place and a dragon fly is flying around me and humming birds are all over the place. 😀 what does this all mean 🙃
Sallie Coleman
having lunch today with my (adult) son. Outdoor dining a dragonfly landed on the bench next to me…less than a foot away. Stayed there for 1 minute maybe tad longer. Its head kept tilting side to side.
Lisa M Kelly
For the the past few weeks a dragonfly comes to see me every time I get in the car. It will then sit on my car antenna until I leave. At first I was just so happy for the visits, now I’m really taking mental notes on what needs to change around me and within me. Thank you for the informative article.
Nancy Martinez
This was absolutely relevant to my life! I am always obsessed with dragonflies, charms, pendants etc.. reading this post reminds me to live in the present and stop looking back towards the past. Thank you!
Sophia Rebella
I’m always intrigued with these tiny creatures, they seem magical all on their own
MARTHA BESS
Saw dragonfly hitching ride on a beetle then climb off walk couple steps & get right back on & ride on thru the grass. thought this odd for a flying insect. But think telling me was hanging on to someone need let go of. And did & feel better now.Also see them randomly & often since going thru my own transformation lately. LUV U 4 U.
Stacey
The past week I have been seeing tons of dragonflies around my house. They are everywhere!

When my Daddy passed away dragonflies were near me for days and days afterward. At one point a cloud of them surrounded my car.🍃

My only child died in 2009. Since then I am fascinated with dragonflies. I truly believe they are my Tony coming to see me. Thank you for the information about them.
Lorrie S. Holland
I had one visit last evening. I was actually sitting on my porch crying. I’m in a situation that I can’t talk about, but I also know that there really isn’t any more that I can do. I just have to stay calm and ride out the storm, but the storm was a little intense yesterday. I needed that reminder to stay focused on the goal. I know that all will be as it should be.
Dee
My mother has come to me as a dragonfly since her passing. Yesterday I went tot he beach to feel close to my mom- I was in our hotel room feeling sad because I didn’t feel my mother yesterday on the anniversary of her passing.
I told my sister I was disappointed- Disappointing me is not her- EVER.
Soon after a DRAGONFLY flew into our room!
She flew around a bunch then landed on the curtain-
I put my hand out and she came to me-
Then she KISSED ME!!!!
❤️😭❤️😭🥰
Imagine!!!!
I cried and cried I was so completely overwhelmed. I could hear her in my ear saying-
“I was busy celebrating yesterday – of course I’d come.” Ha ha Ha
SHE KISSED ME!!!!❤️🥰❤️❤️❤️
My mom kissed me❤️❤️🥰❤️🥰
I wish I could attach photos to show it.
It was beyond amazing.
Anita Albrewczynski
I’ve heard that if you are a “Moon Child” (sign), dragonflies are a part of your sign. True?
Regina
I totally agree with his Blog! And have personally had conversations with dragonflies… There always there when I need that reminder that life is too short for the trivial stuff look at the Big Picture before it’s too late! Thank You for this!
Rene Connolly
I’ve been dealing with slit of past pain . Grief and fear . The other day a dragonfly landed on my chest and spent about 5 min there then he flew away and flew back towards my boyfriend sitting next to me and kissed him right on the lips .. never have I seen anything like this .. it was pretty amazing ❤️
Amber Martinez
We’ve lost 3 of our family pets in this past year. After each loss a dragonfly appeared. Our dog, Izzy. Then a white dragonfly came that night. Our cat, Athena and an orange dragonfly came. My cat Drake of 14 years who was my baby. I’ve had a red dragonfly come to me and actually let me hold it. Emotional stuff. But, very comforting. Thanks for this read!
Ramona Ann Oertel
I have always felt a strong connection to dragonflies, but didn’t know why. Whenever I see one I feel happy and free. They are my fairy godmother.
Nancy
Yesterday I took my Dad to be tested for the virus and on the way home as we stopped for a red light a dragonfly was next to the car just hanging out then as we moved on and came to the next red light there it was again and it circled in front of us as we pulled away it followed for a second then gone., I love dragonflies. Many years ago I was dreaming and there were dragonflies in my dream then I started seeing them in front of my car when I would park my car at work this happened several times so I went and got a tat on my wrist. its in color- the body is blue, outline of wings red, inside of wings pink. The colors are for my grandson, son and daughter. Colors represent their birth month. I believe that what happened yesterday was a sign that dad and I will be ok!
Krista
I have a massive dragonfly tattoo on my left shoulder. It was one of my first tattoos after a set of fairies with my daughters names. This tattoo is very realistic and used to look 3D till I colored most of rest of my back in, but I still get dragonflies landing on me often.

yesterday while walking on a bike path i saw a large dragonfly near me. i stopped and it landed on my arm. it stayed at least thirty seconds letting me take pictures of it before flying away.
Jessica Jones
One just landed near my hand on the rail of the steps to the house. So I watched and waited until it flew around me a few times and then flew off….🥰
Judy
The last time I saw a dragonfly was before all this happened the coronavirus but I live in Tucson Arizona but ever since this virus came I’ve never seen one since
Mark
This is so extraordinarily beautiful and great. I was getting into my car this evening to go help a friend and there were I think 3 dragonflies hovering around me at the time. It’s time to move on!
Charmaine
The last time I saw a butterfly was 3 days ago at a cottage. A dragonfly decided to land on my head and stay in my hair for quite awhile until I had forgotten and accidentally put my hand through my hair and it flew off but then it came right back! It stayed for hours, I gave it a cap of water to make sure it wasn’t thirsty and it climbed into the cap and took drinks, and then it would fly a bit but either straight onto my hand or into my hair. My friend was making jokes that I had found a new pet and I might have to take it home lol. Well, the past weekend before this I decided to make a huge step and quit drinking as well as try to make goals to help my mental health. So reading this was really reassuring and definitely makes me think that this visit was no coincidence. ☺
Andrea Mancini
My dear friend passed on 27 May this year. She was riddled with cancer and was visited regularly by butterflies. She new I loved dragonflies. Today I was gardening and scattering rocks when I noticed a dragonfly right in front of my. I hoped it was my friend visiting so had a chat the said if that’s really you please land on my hand … and it did. I cried with joy and immediately phoned her mother who was delighted xxx it was a very special universal moment
Dalton
A year ago,Dragonflies and other insects are sadly killed
JOHN Robert KROL
At the beach a dragon fly landed on me and stayed there for 15-20 minutes and enough time for my grandson, granddaughter and wife to see it. My six year old grandson took a photo of it and I see a few around me when I’m at my pool flying around me.
Lisa
Amazing. I work from home due to the current situation. As I was working on my laptop one flew and sit on my shoulder. I said hello. The sweet creature sit there for several minutes and then flew off. I have been very stressed lately over a past situation that has broke and heart and turned my world upside down.
Ken
This afternoon I found out a dear friend of mine had passed away a couple weeks ago. I was outside & as her sister was telling me this…I noticed a couple dragonflies in the front yard. One landed on my car’s antenna & stayed there for a bit. I felt like it was Steph coming to let me know she’s ok. Well…that dragonfly stayed with me for an hour, before the other one came back & they flew away. Totally felt out of the ordinary for sure. A special moment in time.
Crystal Market
This was a very good read. I’ve never really thought about what dragonflies mean, I used to see them all the time though.
clint weilage

Saw one the other day at a customers house. Been going through a lot of indecision as of late. Do not know if there is a connection here yet.

I’ve had a fascination and visits from Dragonfly’s for decades. It’s good to understand why.

I love dragon flies and they come and see me around mother’s day every year as that’s when my son died and they always make me feel better

I was always amazed by dragonflies there colors their size and I have seen them every year sometimes more than one at the same time now I know what it means I do dwell too much in the past and things I can’t control thank you for getting me the insight now I know what I must do blessed be

Thank you for sharing your post. Dragonflies always come to pay me a visit at some of my worst times and it always puts my mind at ease cause I know for sure that change is on its way. I don’t live near any water so I know they come for reasons. Just like the praying mantis, they also visit me bringing good news and things change for the better days afterwards . Sorry, I’m not Pagan or Wiccan , I was born and raised as an eclectic as like all my grandmothers for generations .

I found this to be informative. Ive seen a few dragonflies through out the years and never knew that they actually ment something. I will definitely be more aware this summer if i see them or they come around. Im glad that i read it. Thank you.

Dragonflies have been around me my whole life. in and out and you’re right… sometimes when you’re stressed or down or just an emotional wreck at times is Win they seem to show up. There’s also been many times you’re just lately at work I had one show up at my desk hung out in the shop for a couple days and then he landed on my paperwork and expired and I’ve had him in my office ever since big green silvery dragonfly makes me smile every time I look at him

I love dragonflies and they play an extremely significant role in my life. I usually do see them during moments of high stress and their presence immediately calms me. GREAT ARTICLE!

WHAT IF THERE IS NO DRAGONFLIES AROUND
This was one of many glaring grammatical errors throughout the blog. WHAT IF THERE IS NO DRAGONFLY or WHAT IF THERE ARE NO DRAGONFLIES would be correct. IS NO DRAGONFLIES shakes the mind with cognitive dissonance.

I have been visited regularly by a beautiful large red dragonfly. Today he came right up to me several times as if to communicate a message! Relaxed and sat on a leaf about 10 cm from my face and turned to make eye contact. We sat with each other for about 5 minutes in silence and calm. Was an amazing interactive experience. What is he telling me? 🙏

One slept in my room last week, and just when I thought of killing it. Something stopped me. Next morning it was gone 🤗

Last summer I was thinking about a very dear friend who passed away suddenly of a massive heart attack. He was experiencing a very hard time is his life that I never knew about until after his death. I never had the chance to tell this friend how special he was in my life, what a difference he made and how he got me through a very hard time. I was praying for a sign that he knew how I felt about him and was at peace as I worked out in my garden. Suddenly a little dragonfly appeared and began “playing” with me. It would fly very close and then take off. I finally stood up as it came back and waved at it, it would zoom close by me and then head upward, do a turn around and then do the zoom next to me. This went on for about 20 minutes. I live in a neighborhood that normally doesn’t see many Dragonflies. It was a very enlightening experience.
