As you begin a new journey, may your path be blessed with the magic of Dragonfly colors, their agility in mastering change, the the promise of dreams come true.

Dragondly

Dragonflies are said to bless us with the magic of dreamtime, of becoming, of creating anew from that we will leave behind. The Pueblo Indians associate dragonfly with abundance, fertility, and water which is very dear in the Southwest. A major symbol of change, Dragonfly soars in the realm of light on gossamer wings, teaching us of the delights of color and breezes. Did you know that they can actually fly backward? Yes, we embrace the gift of agility. Some cultures acknowledge them as relatives of the mythical Dragons that they seem to be named after.

May you experience the wonder and magic that Dragonflies proclaim

Winter
SanoSanta Fe is high desert and we do get snow, but it rarely stays long. So do bring layers for warm dressing, we want you to take home tales of chili you ate, not how chilly you were.
Christmas is magical in Santa Fe, no matter what your beliefs. In fact one view is that the farolitos that warm our nights were first little ceremonial fires lit by Chinese buddhist who were building the railroads....
