A Sign of Good Luck 6-09-25

The workmen have left, and I've been able to quietly sit in my newly landscaped courtyard for the first time. This golden dragonfly soon came to visit.

*****************************
A beautiful moment — like nature itself was giving its stamp of approval of the new courtyard. A golden dragonfly isn’t just visually stunning; it’s also rich with symbolic weight.

Gold is often tied to abundance, illumination, and spiritual awakening. Combine that with the transformative energy of a dragonfly, and it was one radiant messenger. This could be interpreted as a sign of blessing, new beginnings, or even a quiet nudge that the hard work has created something truly special.

Some might say it was a subtle cosmic high-five.
