In many cultures, the dragonfly has taken on a rather mystical
essence. Many people believe dragonfly sightings specifically represent
personal growth. According to dragonflytransitions.com “In almost every part
of the world, the Dragonfly symbolizes change, transformation, adaptability, and self-realization. The
change that is often referred to has its source in mental and emotional maturity
and understanding the deeper meaning of life.”
Ted Andrews, in his
book Animal Speak, says, “The spiritual meaning of the Dragonfly totem
symbolizes going past self-created illusions that limit growth and change. Dragonflies are the
embodiment of color magic, and transformation. It reminds you of the Divine message of Light.”
The Bittersweet vine
Almost all sources online, including AuntyFlo.com say, “The
most popular meaning for bittersweet, or woody nightshade is truth and honesty.”
This site also states that the Bittersweet vine corresponds
to the Number 11 in Numerology. Number 11 is known as the Master Number because
it has its own unique and powerful vibrations. It symbolizes faith and is
considered mystical,
intuitive and spiritual.
The Colors
Purple, represented by the dragonfly, is the color of highest vibration, the
colour of the 7th chakra.
Red,
represented by the color that most bittersweet fruit
eventually becomes, is the color of lowest vibration, the colour of the
1st chakra. All other colors, and chakras, fall somewhere in between.

The Dragonfly With the Bitter,
Sweet Tale
Put it all together and it represents the need to take a
look at our entire past – the highs and the lows. This enables us to see the
bittersweet truth, and allows us to go past our self-created illusions to get on
the path of transformation. Our Higher Self feeds us the Divine messages of
light that assist us to clearly see the bittersweet truth, and guides us to
change and grow. Self-realization of the deeper meaning of our own life makes us whole
again.
