Butterflies are generally good omens when appearing in dreams. First of all, they stand for traits of your character- from this point of view, butterflies represent self-change and renewal, as they are known to go through metamorphosis, noble feelings and thoughts, a good and true heart. But butterflies are also known for their habit to visit one flower after the other, therefore they may also stand for inconstancy, unsteadiness and inability to commit.

These beautiful and colorful insects have been said to represent human soul. Consequently, depending on the circumstances in which butterflies appear in your dream, they may symbolize various instances of your soul and you general state of mind. When appearing in the dream of a young woman, the precious butterflies foretell a fortunate love and probably marriage to follow.

If the butterflies in your dream are flying among colorful flowers and green grass, they announce prosperity, fortune and success in anything you undertake. To see them flying about means that you are going to receive good news, possibly about dear friends you have not seen for a long time.
