Butterfly Totem Animal

Copyright Matthew James 2015
The butterfly is the symbol of the soul. They remind us that life is a dance, not to take things so seriously. They also remind us to get up and move. Dance brings the sweetness of life. Butterflies bring color and joy to your life. Look at them and remember what joy is in your life; whether it’s a lot or a little, it is still joy. The butterfly teaches us that growth and transformation does not have to traumatic; it can occur gently, sweetly, and joyfully.



From Shamanic Journey:
Symbol of Change, The Soul, Creativity, Freedom, Joy and Colour
Butterflies eyes consist of thousands of individual lenses. This gives them the gift of being able to see a single image clearly. They can perceive ultraviolet wavelengths of light, suggesting clairvoyant abilities for those with Butterfly as power animal. The antennae of the butterfly has small knobs on each end which are said to aid orientation. If an antennae is missing, the butterfly will fly in circles unable to find its way. If the Butterfly is your ally, you need to stay consciously connected to spirit at all times so you may fulfil your goals.

Butterfly is the symbol of change, the soul, creativity, freedom, joy and colour. Their power is transformation, shape shifting and soul evolution. They represent the element of air, quickly changing and always on the move gracefully
