Butterfly as a Tarot symbol

Butterflies, for centuries, have been a universal symbol of change and transformation. This is because butterflies go through a transformation process called metamorphosis, which goes through stages: from egg to larva and then to a caterpillar until it becomes a full-fledged butterfly. It really is an amazing transformation, especially when the worm-like caterpillar transforms into a beautiful butterfly in all its glory.

Human beings go through many transformations, from childhood to puberty and then to old age. Just like the butterfly, which has to fight, human beings also have to go through challenges before they can become themselves. In ancient times, butterflies were known to symbolize the human soul. In fact, the ancient Greek word “psyche” means “soul” or “butterfly.” Those who believe in reincarnation see butterflies as wandering human souls waiting for rebirth or reincarnation.

Butterflies also have mystical symbolism. Even in dreams, it has various interpretations. When a dreamer sees a butterfly in her dream, it usually means that he is about to go through changes, which are usually positive. It can also signify opportunities that will allow the dreamer to take a step forward. The butterfly is also a symbol of the fulfillment of one’s own destiny.

The other symbols of the butterflies tarot are: rebirth, immortality, freedom, marital bliss, happiness, new hope, and journey of transformation.
