Butterfly through every lens

Butterflies in Jung's reading are the soul itself — psyche literally meant butterfly in Greek.

They appear in dreams during phases of emergence from a deep interior.

The butterfly is the soul wearing its new shape. When one lands in a dream, the chrysalis has already opened.
