late yesterday afternoon my son in texas called to say that the weirdest thing had been happening to him for some time - he is being followed by butterflies - everywhere - wherever he goes butterflies follow him - it doesn't matter if he has just bathed and changed clothes or has been outdoors all day or not at all - the butterflies simply follow him around - while he was talking, someone took photos of several of them - the three here are each a different color - there is a large purple and a large yellow and beneath and to the left of the yellow one is a smaller black butterfly - this morning when i opened my gypsywomanworld blog, there was a new follower to the blog - her icon is that of a BUTTERFLY -
from ANIMAL TOTEMS by TRISH MACGREGOR [and Millie Gemondo], we find that butterflies represent TRANSFORMATION, METAMORPHOSIS, FERTILITY and SOARING - the significance of the butterfly overall is that it is "time to release your old self and move into a new chapter of your life." - the significance in terms of family is perhaps "...a new child...but...whatever the change, it's important that you embrace it..." Spirituality and butterflies indicate that "you're on a new path now...inner guidance and intuition exceptionally strong...go within."
- all of this fits so well into place with stephen's life of late - very recently, he re-united with his oldest daughter from whom he had been separated for nearly twenty years - he says everyday that "his life has been totally changed" - that he now has "purpose and meaning to his life" - that "every day is a wonderful day - a blessing" -
and so, we see, that it is true - the story of the BUTTERFLY - the beautiful little winged angel who brings "transformation, metamorphosis, and SOARING"...INTO OUR LIVES!

Oh I can just see it! all these butterflies gathering around..almost like a celebration of change! I wonder if the energy around the person attracts them..they connect with him because he for a time is just like them! great post!
