praying mantis - help needed...

[radiantbaby]

on the way into work yesterday, i noticed a praying mantis on my windshield while pulling out of the driveway for work. i drove slowly so that i could pull over and let the little visitor off without him getting hurt, but he ended up slipping off before i could.

anyway, i began to think about signs and omens and i thought there might be something to my visitation, as it is extremely rare that i see them around.

do anyone know what they symbolize? i have been trying to search the internet for some information, but haven't really found anything.

please help!

Well... Hmm. I don't suppose you bothered to check the symbolism of the owl, now, did you?

But if someone were to do so... I would think it might be you.

In any case... I don't know of anything in pagan symbolism, any sort of mythology, any religion... that talks about a praying mantis.

But, knowing their nature.... I'm glad it was you, not me.

If it were me, I'd be thinking that on my next sexual encounter, I was going to have my head removed by my beloved.

So.... I, personally, won't be on any dates with *you* anytime soon, missy!

Just my thoughts....
