Fireflies are magical creatures that brighten the velvet sky. To see a firefly in your dreams indicates that novel ideas are overflowing your mind. Your ideas are about to emerge and become part of reality. A firefly may also symbolize hope, for it’s body is infused with light. Thus, if you are in a period of uncertainty or self doubt, seeing a firefly in your dream is a great indicator of hope coming in small increments.
Fireflies in a dream also represent empathy, love and compassion. These dreams tell us that we have to put ourselves in another’s shoes to understand their emotions and feelings so we can help them without any fear of judgement.
