As the name suggests (in Dutch, 'eik' means oak), the Purple Hairstreak prefers to stay high in the tops of large, strong oak trees. What does this say about this simple brown butterfly? The roots of the oak go deeper into the earth than those of its fellow trees, and its wood is hard and strong. An oak stands for steadfastness and perseverance and is not easily ‘knocked over’. The Purple Hairstreak surely loves spending time around the energy of this strong tree.
How strong do you actually feel? Do you give up quickly when things go against you, or can you stay standing, unperturbed? To what extent do you lean on the people around you? And what do you manage under your own steam?
When you come across a Purple Hairstreak, you may realise that you are capable of more than you think. Stand firm, feel your feet on the ground and trust!
