Monarch Butterfly Meaning and Symbolism

The Monarch butterfly is a powerful symbol that represents change, hope, and revival in many cultural traditions. The butterfly is a reminder that change is constant and that every ending brings with it the potential for new beginnings.

“Monarch butterflies are a guiding light that directs you to your highest spiritual truth and the inner compass that we all have, which never ceases to work to point us in the right direction,” she explains. Monarchs don’t only represent light and life, though. Panescu says that spiritually, they are strongly associated with the dead, too. “They constantly go through phases of life and death during their migration,” she explains. “Death for the monarch butterfly is as important as life because the shorter lifespans allow them to complete migration while solving the problems of overpopulation and genetic diversity. It is almost as if the monarch butterfly knows that death is not to be feared; it’s just another essential part of the journey.” via Well and Good

BUSINESS LEARNING:

Remember that sometimes a NO will lead to a YES later on. Remember when you felt mad and sad but when you felt happy six months later? Remember there was a reason for that. As a business leader, there have been so many hard times in building a brand but 23 years later I can tell you that I look back on when I was angry or sad that a deal did not go through and now I am so thankful for that!

TO WATCH:

I loved The Barbie Movie. I am feeling so much nostalgia. I loved the narration and the humor. I loved the throwback to the Indigo Girls’ song Closer to Fine too! I do not want to give too much away but I highly recommend going to see it. Thanks for the feedback from my last newsletter which I am leaving below too. For those who did see it and were going to see it leave me a note on what you thought.
