"When a dragonfly sits on your shoulder all your dreams can come true."
Join us in the magical world of the little kite.
25/01/2019
Dragonflies, also known as the dancers of the skies, can reach speeds of up to 50km/h. With the ability to fly backwards, there are over 5,000 different species of dragonflies worldwide. Recognisable by their long, thin and colourful bodies, big eyes, wings and short antennae, dragonflies are often found living by the water.
In mythology, the dragonfly is a popular symbol. The Teutons believed that dragonflies were helpers of the Queen of Heaven Frigg (the beautiful Queen of Heaven), and for the Celts, the kite looking insects were thought of as a means of transportation for fairies and elves. In Native America, dragonflies were considered the guardians of dreams, and in Asia, dragonflies are a symbolism of courage, prosperity and happiness.
Gliding through the air in complete silence, the dragonfly brings with it a certain element of lightness and serenity. The flexibility of the dragonfly teaches us how to avoid dangers in life, whilst overcoming dangers and challenges.
