"In ancient Rome, the soul leaving the body took the form of a butterfly."
The monarch butterfly is known for its spectacular migration. At the end of summer, the butterfly will embark on a long journey to a forest in Mexico to await its next breeding season.
Because of its appearance, this species is associated with ideals of beauty, elegance, and royalty, but in some countries, it is also a symbol of spirituality; the migration of monarchs is symbolically associated with the return of the souls of the deceased. All great civilizations, religions, and spiritual traditions have always attributed great symbolism to butterflies. For some, seeing a butterfly signifies change, the passage of a cycle. For others, it represents your guardian angel or even the symbol of immortality.
This item is a beautiful way to remind yourself of the presence of your loved one by keeping it close to you.
