Seeing them in daylight, these tiny insects are no different compared to any other bug. They are almost shy, not exposing themselves, but when the night falls it’s as almost as they are performing on a stage. The lights are ON.
It is the lighting in the dark that separates them from the other insects. The reasons why they emit light to glow in the dark are numerous. One of the main reasons is self-defense from predators. Another interesting reason for the glow is the fact that by using their light, fireflies are actually attracting a mating partner. No matter the reason, one thing is for sure. The army of lighting fireflies could make the darkest night enchanting.
Dreaming of fireflies is related to the creativity that we all have inside and the means we use to address it. That is why dreaming of fireflies is a good sign. A sign of ingenuity, originality, uniqueness.
In a way, when we see fireflies, there is nothing special we get to do about it, but to watch and enjoy. The same thing goes for dreaming about them. There is probably something interesting going on in our environment, possibly at work, that inspires us and leaves us breath taken, but without the chance of participating.
