Dragonfly

Illusion

Dragonfly . . .

      Breaks illusion,

              Brings visions of power,

                     No need to prove it,

                             Now is the hour!

      Know it, believe it,

             Great Spirit intercedes,

      Feeding you, blessing you,

            Filling all your needs.

Contrary:

Are you trying to prove to yourself or someone else that you have power? 

Are you caught in an illusion that weakens your true feelings or minimizes your abilities? 

If so, you may have contracted "Dragonfly dive-bombing." Is this the final "crash and burn" for

some pipe-dream that had no real purpose? 

Look within and feel the sense-of-self energy

within yourself. 

Notice if it is ebbing, and find the point in time when you were deluded into believing that you would be happier if you changed because someone else wanted you to. 

Misery is a prime clue that you lost your will and personal vitality when you bought into someone else's idea of who or what you should be. 

The illusion was that you would be happier if you did it their way. 

In forfeiting what you know is right and true for you personally, you give away your power. 

It is time to take it back. 

Follow Dragonfly to the place inside your body where magic is still alive, and drink deeply of its power. 

This strength belongs to you. 

It is the power of becoming the illusion. 

This ability is every changing, and contains within it the knowledge that you are creating it all.

Overview:

Confront denials. 

Break through illusions. 

Honour inner truths.
