These delicate, beautifully colored insects generally symbolize transformation and change.
In different cultures they also stand for lightness, hope and love, or bravery and good fortune.

Ever since my little Aubree spread her wings on September 4th 2023, I’ve been seeing a lot more butterflies. Or did I just not pay attention before? Laugh it off, if you want to. I know it’s my little angel reminding me that she is safe and happy, but also, that she is always with me. Now I am not talking about every butterfly I see for a second or two. These precious moments occur, when I’m going for a walk alone and it is quiet around me. Then sometimes, a butterfly appears and accompanies me for quite a while. Usually, these moments ignite a comforting warmth, or a feeling of peace from way down deep, and I always see the same photo of Aubree, which makes me laugh out loud without fail and it brings such joy.

To some, it may well be a wild imagination or hocus-pocus. That’s fine, you do you. To others, myself included, it is a special and very strong bond with a beloved animal or person, that carries on forever. True is also, that it is definitely easier to believe something, when you experience it yourself. We appreciate butterflies, some for their beauty, others also for the messages they convey.
