Dagpauwoog (Peacock)

Dagpauwoog (Peacock)

Pride – beauty – ‘seer’/inner knowing – trust – surrender

The colourful and well-known Peacock butterfly owes its Dutch name, Dagpauwoog, to its day-active way of life and the typical eyespot on its wings, just like the ones a peacock carries on its tail feathers. With this, the Peacock symbolises the pride and beauty of a peacock, with which it gives its day colour. Unlike some other butterfly species, the Peacock has no real preference for a habitat and calmly lets the wind carry it towards new worlds. As long as it’s sunny and there are enough flowers. What trust, don’t you think? It trusts the wind and knows that all will be well.

Do you dare to trust in life and where it sometimes takes you? And what does beauty mean to you? What are you proud of? Look beyond the form and see beauty in everything.
