DESCRIPTION AND MEANING:

When the butterfly is born, it´s bond to the ground in the form of a caterpillar; it then turns into a crysalis and is born again as an butterfly, free of flying into the sky, far from its old body.

That´s why the butterfly symbolizes transformation and freedom.

For the old the butterfly symbolized the soul, which after death gets free by leaving the material body behind.
