The day I moved in, I pulled into the driveway (truck piled high with boxes & my snail Garry) a beautiful summer day - I stepped out of my truck and immediately had a Luna month land on me - *on the rosary I was wearing & stayed there!!
I sowed my friend Geoffrey, who followed me in his vehicle - exclaiming excitedly: Look! An official forest greeting!
It stayed there until, I gently removed it and placed it on some flowers, as I was excited to unpack. At the time, I didn't even know it was a Luna Moth -or how rare a sighting actually is - let alone one landing on me.
Looking at how beat up it was, it is a blessing it even made it -they only live 10 days. 10 days for such a beautiful creature who doesn't have a mouth -it is simply here at this point to be admired and reproduce. When I googled Luna Moth -Google shows: Luna moth landing on you meaning... of course I looked. It's rare to see one flying but especially rare to have one actually land on you - if so it's said to represents good luck, I certainly felt lucky watching it hanging on to my rosary. Transformation, change & a reminder to enjoy life as it is short. This I am aware, especially the past few years. It is also suggests, if one 'lands on you, you actually have the potential to find your soulmate. I think it must be Arrow - lol.
Since moving here, I seem to attract butterflies, dragonflies - to the point I joked; stating my new forest name is Butterfly Branch'. I have countless images and video with them on me. I can't put into words how fantastic it feels to have a free, tiny, intelligent creature of God, grace me with their presence. I've learned to welcome them all and am not afraid of a bee or wasp lands on me, I understand they are exploring - just like we do & they won't harm, unless threatened -just like us.
The snow (a few inches the past few days) has me speculating spring - it won't be long. Soon we'll be out exploring the woods, currently though - I'm exploring botanical painting in watercolour & gouache. I'm going to try some more moths and bugs and branches, trees & leaves are limited but it's pine with me.. heehee
Signs, how many times do we get signs and dismiss them as - oh - it's just a moth landing on me? Nope - That moth graced me with it's presence as it was dying & I'm forever grateful, welcoming me with a sign' like no other, as I arrived at my new home ready for new adventure.
My prayer today is: Thank you.
