braveheartbutterfly@gmail.com. Question: William writes – Hi. I’ve had a strange run in with butterflies the past couple of weeks. I’ve noticed that there are many of them wherever I go and they seem to like me. Yellow and brown ones in particular. I had a moment a few days ago where I had two brown ones land on me. One hung out on my finger for upwards of half an hour and the other landed on my side for a few minutes then flew off. Also, anytime I’m talking to the great spirit about a certain relationship of mine it always sends a yellow butterfly either very close to me or in the direction I’m looking. I know they’re signs but I’m unsure of their meaning. Can you help? Dear William – The butterfly is one of the most emblematic totem animals symbolizing personal transformation. If you see the butterfly as your totem or spirit animal, pay attention to the areas in your life or personality that are in need of profound change or transformation. Perhaps, this animal totem guides you to be sensitive to your personal cycles of expansion and growth, as well as the beauty of life’s continuous unfolding. An important message carried by the spirit of the butterfly is about the ability to go through important changes with grace and lightness. The butterfly is a powerful animal to call when you need support during these times of transition, whether it’s at work, in a relationship, or when you’re doing inner work. The butterfly is a great ally during intense periods of personal transformation, it will add ease and lightness to the process. This power animal is a good inspiration for adding more color into your life and self-expression. Those who have the butterfly as a totem animal may be naturally inclined to express themselves openly, to reflect their colors into their environment. – Thank you for writing – Many Blessings!
