Spiritual Meaning Of A Fly Landing On You:
It is about persistance
“He who has ears to hear, let him hear.” – Matthew 11:15
The moment a fly lands, it breaks my natural rhythm.
This too almost feels unnerving as it grabs my attention in a manner. But spiritually, this little intruder has wisdom to share about persistance.
When a fly sits on me, it is not random.
It represents an inner powerhouse that is repressed or has yet to be utilized.
Every time I see a fly, I can think to myself that Spirit is giving me a very blatant call to keep my channels open and receive.
This moment is an invitation for me to pay acute attention to the underlay of life.
A fly is small but it can not be easily killed.
It lives in places almost no others would ever venture.
This is a form of persistence that resonates with me directly.
Stillness
“Be still, and know that I am God.” – Psalm 46:10
A fly landing on my skin seems intruding. But that performance too carries another weight.
You may physically feel it as well but on a spiritual level this is a necessary break.
Because the pace of life never stops, I forget how important it is to sit with myself.
This peacefulness will allow me to see what I have been avoiding.
It represents the need to drop all of our automatic programming and let the cosmos download it instructions directly.
The fly with its darting movements ambles in opposition to the quiet I seek.
It guides me to being more present, in gratitude for what right now provides.
There are even times where I can get so caught up in life that I forget to talk with divine.
It is about vision
“Where there is no vision, the people perish.” – Proverbs 29:18
The fly spirit is directly related to seeing the bigger picture.
Symbolizing the need for me to broaden my perspective, as opposed to staring at the world from one side (like egotistical humans).
Spiritually, a fly landing on me is a call to rethink my life.
Flies are messengers of clarity for me.
Flies reside in a world that many humans scuff their dirty foot at, but flies turn it into a reason.
Spiritually, this is the lesson of creating order from chaos.
To seek the truth even in discord.
The fly helps me cut through the noise.
To see what lies beneath. I need to expand my thinking and see what I purposely closed my eyes from. And in the process, I inhabit my life path and purpose.
It is about spiritual cleansing
“Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.” – Psalm 51:10
On my skin, the fly makes me conscious of my thinking and intentions.
It makes me think about what I am thinking about.
In my life, when a fly walks on me spiritually, the same thing happens as in real life: I have to clean up my thoughts.
For me, the fly helps me pay attention to the thoughts that automatically hinder my spiritual progression.
Flies have represented pestilence yet were also viewed as a harbinger of waste.
If one lands on me it turns into a great symbolic opportunity to rid of some mental and emotional clutter.
Cleansing is a prerequisite to spiritual growth.
The fly shows me transformation can only happen when i let go of what has been stuck.
I release what feeds my soul to make room for expansion.
It is about surrendering control
“Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they neither toil nor spin.” – Matthew 6:28
Flies have no worries whatsoever.
They are not trying to manipulate the situation.
Flies just go wherever their nature takes them.
This reflects a spiritual lesson of releasing control of every little aspect of my life.
Spiritually, the fly landing on me helps me understand if I am gripping onto something too tightly.
Surrender is not about accepting the universe is taking me where I am meant to be.
Whatever happens is happening for a reason. If I just let go and surrender to the higher power, there will be space for it to work its magic.
Abundance
“The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.” – Psalm 23:1
Flies also symbolize abundance.
When a fly lands on you, this is an indication of an abundance of spiritual energy entering my life.
This one is easy to overlook.
After all, I generally view flies as pests more than anything else.
Still, my hunch when seeing a fly is that the universe is looking out for me in some way I cannot see yet.
Sometimes abundance is inconspicuous and I must trust not just appearances but seeing within.
When a fly lands on me it speaks to my spirit to focus back on what is giving me life.
I have to believe that my needs will be taken care of, even if I cannot see how.
There is always divine provision, but it is my responsibility to see it.
High skies like the fly, sometimes abundance can soar in from lowly places.
Inner strength
“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” – Philippians 4:13
Inner strength is one of the strongest spiritual characteristics.
If a fly lands on me, it represents strength fighting through adversities.
Life brings many moments of unease and test, but the fly tells me that in adversity I can always rise.
This small being, strong and lasting against a multitude of evictors is my spiritual strength.
I am stronger than I know. The fly is a symbol of me and my relentless pursuit.
The fly is a spiritual reflection and encourages me to summon my warrior spirit.
I can “battle” through whatever may present itself.
Interconnectedness
“All things work together for good to those who love God.” – Romans 8:28
A fly landing on me, means the unity of all beings.
Even insects are important.
It shows that things have a place and a role in the universe.
My life is divinely orchestrated including the frustrating parts.
All experience are a thread in the ginormous tapestry of my soul path.
It is the fly that lands on me and help me to zoom out.
Life is even meaningful with the most irritating parts and helps me grow.
Its not just coincidence after coincidence in life, but all things are knit together to work out for my good.
I have faith in the universe, and that everything happens as is supposed to, even if I can´t see the puzzle pieces connecting just yet.
What seems discombobulated now will piece itself together later.
It is about being committed
“The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.” – Matthew 26:41
The tiny but persistent fly, represents the things that lure me away from spiritual practice.
When it lands on me, it’s a message to come back into alignment with my core self and remind myself of the bigger picture.
Distractions happen, commitments get made, but being aligned mentally is the challenge and the reward.
This is not a battle of weakness, but one of awareness.
Daily life calls to me in such an incessant way that it is easy for me to forget.
I ned stay spiritually awake and pay attention to what is important.
I am committed to my daily spiritual practices no matter what distractions appear along my path.
Trust
“For we walk by faith, not by sight.” – 2 Corinthians 5:7
The erratic nature of life is manifested in the way that flies sometimes dart back and forth.
When one lands on me, it is a message to trust the process.
I walk on faith and rely on unseen powers.
I trust that I will be okay even if my path crumbles in front of me.
The landing of a fly on me, I could read that as a sign to take a leap of faith.
I need to stop insisting on understanding, and trusting that when I cannot perceive results I am still supported.
