Night butterfly: symbolism and its meaning in dreams
Reading time: 
Often considered a miracle of resurrection and the symbol of deep transformation, the night butterfly is not an insect like the others. In fact, the moth has interesting characteristics that make it a particularly powerful totem animal.
Transformation power of the night butterfly
Like the day butterfly, the night butterfly symbolizes transformation better than any other animal. After all, doesn’t it start its life as a simple caterpillar before turning into a superb winged butterfly?
This insect is the very symbol of metamorphosis. If you’ve seen a lot of moths lately, it means it is time for you to take the next step. You have to put your worries aside and move on; the recurring presence of the butterfly means that you are ready to face the changes that are necessary to continue moving forward. Get out of your pupa and dare to embrace your true personality.
Night butterfly: a symbol of lightness
The moth is also synonymous with lightness: it is a slender being who cheerfully flaps its wings without really worrying about what surrounds it and the dangers of life. This nocturnal butterfly is attracted to light and does not pay attention to its environment, being carried away by the winds of the spirit.
If it is necessary to salute the spontaneity, the delicacy and the refinement of the moth. However, you must realize that its volatile personality can sometimes be a problem. If you see a moth that burns its wings getting too close to the light, learn the lessons.
The spiritual meaning of the moth in dreams
When you dream of moths, try to analyze the context of the dream, trying to connect the concepts of transformation, death, illusion and impulsivity. Observe if the dream presents you with a situation that causes pain. In these cases it can be a signal for you to change the circumstance.
If you are going through delicate moments and you see a moth landing next to you, understand that it can be a process of change. Changing is not usually easy and is often painful. However, this process can lead you to a better version of yourself. Perhaps it is time to decide and change things for the better.
You should still pay attention to aspects of the moth in the dream. If it is too dark, it may represent more negative factors linked to the transformation process. If the tones are lighter, it probably symbolizes positive aspects within the moth’s spiritual meaning.
When to use the moth as a totem
The moth is a totem animal that can be a great ally in certain everyday situations. If you are in a transition period and you find it difficult to manage change, it will ensure the smooth running of things, whether in your private and professional life.
You are starting a new job, you are about to move, you have just met someone and you are about to start a romantic relationship, etc. The moth is the totem animal you need. Why? Because it symbolizes transformation, it will also help you achieve a deep inner transformation. Finally, it will bring a little lightness to the process, relieving you of the anxiety often created by these kinds of situations.
