Dragonflies are one of the most ancient insects. Their remains were found in coal deposits of the Jurassic period, and since then, having survived many cataclysms, they have spread throughout the world.
The image of a dragonfly in Eastern culture
Depending on the mentality in different countries, the attitude towards dragonflies and the signs associated with them are very different. Thus, reserved and sentimental Japanese consider dragonflies a symbol of courage. In ancient times, they were sacrificed, asking the gods for help in battles. They are admired like cherry blossoms and considered a source of aesthetic pleasure.
In general, in the East, the dragonfly is a symbol of immortality and rebirth. She is the messenger of the world of the dead, personifies the brevity and beauty of human life and is a symbol of the salvation of the soul. The image of a dragonfly in oriental painting symbolized the approach of a warm wind and good news.
Dragonfly in signs and beliefs was considered the best friend and adviser of all unmarried girls. If a dragonfly sat on a girl’s shoulder at the moment whenshe looked at the man, this man was intended for her to enjoy. If the insect landed on the head, the man was supposed to become a guide to the Garden of Eternal Life.
The image of the dragonfly in Western culture
Western culture has the opposite attitude towards dragonflies. These insects were associated there with the devil, witches, devils and snakes. The names speak for themselves: "Dragon Fly", "Snake Doctor", "Devil Darning Needle", "Flying Viper".
It was in Western countries that the idea that a dragonfly could sting or cause some harm to a person was born, which led to the emergence of various superstitions and legends that have no basis. In Slavic culture, it was believed that devils ride dragonflies.
Signs
If a dragonfly flew into the house, the sign says - wait for the guest. Most likely, the visit will bring you a lot of pleasure. By the behavior of the insect, you can also determine how soon this event will happen. If the dragonfly rushes around the room and flies back out the window, the guest is already close. If he sits down to rest, the visitor will have to wait.
Often, the appearance of an insect is associated with future changes in personal life. If you're single or your marriage is falling apart, it's not too late to make things right. No wonder the Chinese consider the dragonfly the savior of families.
The Japanese are sure that the dragonfly gives happiness and inner strength to those living in the house.
If a dragonfly spins around the window glass or beats into it, expect a gift or a pleasant surprise.
Dragonfly sits on a person - a sign indicates that she will take with her all his ailments. For unmarried young ladies, such a meeting promises marriage within a year. True, for the sign to work, you need to catch a dragonfly, hold it in your hands and release it.
If several dragonflies hover above you, a love relationship or new friends may appear.
Dragonfly flew around you, but never sat down - expect a meeting with unpleasant, intrusive people. Be on your guard. They won't hurt you much, but it won't be without some hassle.
If you are lucky enough to catch a dragonfly couple at the moment of intercourse - you are waiting for deafening victories on the love front. You have already found a life partner - expect stormy expressions of love and tenderness from him. If you still do not decide on marriage, it is possible that this moment will come soon. Tired of being alone? Be careful - your destiny is somewhere nearby.
Weather notes
If there are a lot of dragonflies in spring - to a hot and dry summer.
If dragonflies fly low, randomly rush from side to side, it will rain.
Fishing omens
Dragonfly sat on the float - to a good catch.
It is believed that dragonflies show fishing spots to cheerful and light people. Where it hung, in that place you need to cast the bait.
This is such a cute insect. There is only one bad omen associated with it:the one who offends the dragonfly will have no luck, and with him - and his whole family. Therefore, when meeting with a dragonfly, admire its frisky flight, wings sparkling in the sun and let go in peace.
