Ancient Dragonfly Cup Mug by dragonfly813

Digitally Designed and created by Dragonfly813 Artworks.

The dragonfly symbolises many things to different cultures. To me it's symbolism relates to both protection and luck on the battle field as well as to my father who has passed on. Dragonfly was a special song he used to sing to me as a child.

Over the centuries, people thought about dragonflies in many ways. In ancient times, Japanese farmers believed the dragonfly was the spirit of the rice plant. Dragonflies were a welcome sign of a good rice harvest. Dragonflies were also believed to bring good luck in battle. About 1600 years ago, the dragonfly was the symbol of a great Japanese warrior clan. The dragonfly later became one of the emblems of the emperor. An old name for Japan - Akitsu-shimu - means Dragonfly Island. The dragonfly is praised in many Japanese poems and songs.

The Mimbres people of the American southwest painted the dragonfly on ceremonial pottery as a symbol of life.

The Zuni tell an ancient story of a magic dragonfly made from corn and straw. It came to life in a time of drought and famine, became a messenger to the gods, and helped save the people. But not everyone has liked dragonflies.

In Great Britain, they were once considered evil and dangerous. Because people saw them darting at horses, the dragonflies were called "horse-stingers." They didn't realise the dragonflies were snatching horseflies, the real "horse-stingers."

Just a little dragonfly history for ya:)
