But we always come back to the most extraordinary thing of all – the true symbolism of butterfly life – metamorphosis. The chrysalis is an egg which contains the potential of becoming a living thing. When the butterfly emerges it represents the very core of the idea of regeneration. It is not surprising, therefore, that in every butterfly proving, the theme of metamorphosis can be found. In children, most often this is in the form of dressing up. But, adult or child, it is a method of disguise." Patricia Le Roux
