Lately I have become obsessed with butterflies. I believe it has to do with the life changes I have made and the symbolism of the Butterfly..

“Overwhelmingly, cultural myth and lore honor the butterfly as a symbol of transformation because of its impressive process of metamorphosis. From egg, to larvae (caterpillar), to pupa (the chrysalis or cocoon) and from the cocoon the butterfly emerges in her unfurling glory.

What a massive amount of transition this tiny creature undergoes. Consider for a moment the kind of energy this expends. I daresay if a human were to go through this kind of change we’d freak out!

Imagine the whole of your life changing to such an extreme you are unrecognizable at the end of the transformation. Mind you, this change takes place in a short span of about a month too (that’s how long the butterfly life cycle is).

Herein lies the deepest symbolic lesson of the butterfly. She asks us to accept the changes in our lives as casually as she does. The butterfly unquestioningly embraces the chances of her environment and her body.” (Source)

It’s true what she speculates ” if a human were to go through this kind of change we’d freak out!” I have been freaking out. A lot lately. nothing is the same, it’s all different and I am struggling to find new self and let go of the past.

Thank you for reading.
