WHY DO THEY LIKE BUTTERFLIES?

Butterflies are insects with wings characterized by more or less bright colors . These are insects of variable size ranging from a few millimeters up to 8 centimeters in length with a wingspan of up to 31 centimeters in the case of the Queen Alexandra Butterfly, whose scientific name is Ornithoptera Alexandrae.

Why are butterflies so fascinating? In addition to their undoubted beauty and gracefulness , butterflies are also striking for their particular life cycle. In fact, butterflies follow four transformations before becoming the winged insects we know that we dream of tattooing on our skin.

In the beginning we start from an egg that hatching turns into a caterpillar that grows and creates around itself a silk cocoon inside which it develops and turns into a chrysalis (also called pupa). After some time the chrysalis reaches maturity transforming itself into the butterfly we all know. This process requires a lot of time and a lot of tenacity on the part of the butterfly, which has to face several challenges and endure fatigue in order to be 'really born'.

How long do butterflies live? On average, butterflies live about a month but there are specimens that do not live more than a few hours , while other species live up to a year. In particular, however, there are some butterflies with a very long life cycle , such as some moths that feed on a particular plant called Yucca Baccata, present in the United States and Mexico, in desert areas. The chrysalis of this butterfly family can live up to 30 years before transforming into a butterfly.

BUTTERFLY TATTOO MEANING

As already explained, butterflies represent different symbols and meanings, all really very fascinating and rich in character: let's discover them all to be able to give our butterfly tattoo a special connotation that represents us all the way!

SYMBOL OF CHANGE : given the tenacity of butterflies in facing all the phases of their lives and the different mutations of their appearance and nature, a butterfly-shaped tattoo can speak of our personal change, as well as of our affirmation and emancipation;

SYMBOL OF LIGHTNESS : butterflies spend most of their lives flying among the flowers, feeding on their pollen and mating to ensure the reproduction of the species. For this reason, the butterfly tattoo can symbolize physical lightness, strictly linked to the twirling of these insects, as well as to the lightness with which they face their, often short, life;

SYMBOL OF REBIRTH : as already explained, in the different mutations the butterflies 'die' in a state and 'reborn' in a new guise, ready to face new challenges and new ways of being. In this sense, in fact, a butterfly tattoo can symbolize a personal rebirth, an important change;

CONJUGAL LOVE AND HARMONY : in China, butterflies represent marital love and couple harmony according to traditional customs;

DEA OF WAR AND HUMAN SACRIFICES I: among the Mexican divinities the butterfly is the symbol of the Goddess of War and human sacrifices;

REPRESENTATION OF THE DEAD : in the Italian popular tradition, as in many others, butterflies represent the souls of the dead. In fact, in our country it is believed that the butterflies we meet in our daily life are the souls of our loved ones who come back to visit us. For this reason when a butterfly enters a house we must not disturb it and absolutely not kill it or take it out: out of love and respect for the people we love no longer alive;

BEAUTY AND GRACE : in Japan the spreading of the butterfly's wings after the long chrysalis period symbolizes the feminine changes that occur in the transition from girls to women. This change expresses beauty and grace, a gradual and splendid passage, full of joy and absolutely not traumatic;

REPRESENTATION OF PSYCHE : in ancient Greece Pische was instead a mortal woman represented with butterfly wings after passing the tests that led her to immortality thanks to the union with her husband Love, also known as Cupid. Similarly, the Greeks believed that a soul was born from the birth of a butterfly. Furthermore, butterflies often represented messengers, as butterflies were believed to carry souls to heaven.

WHERE TO DO BUTTERFLY TATTOO
