Here are a few things you may or may have not heard about grasshoppers. Grasshoppers can only leap forward, never backward. They symbolize a “Leap of Faith” and courage along with adaptability and flexibility, since they can thrive in all kinds of environments. They represent patience and timing. Being in the right place at the wrong time is a terrible travesty. In many cultures they are seen as good fortune and prosperity, often seen as positive change on the way. They also represent transformation and growth, which is what we all need right now. The next time you see a grasshopper, think of their symbolism.
