Koninginnenpage (Swallowtail)

Dignity – commitment – imperturbability – calm – pride

The Swallowtail is one of the most beautiful butterfly species in our country, with wings measuring as much as 5 to 10 centimetres. One characteristic of the Swallowtail is therefore its striking wingbeat, like the flapping sails of a sailing ship. Elegant and dignified like a Queen... Joseph Conrad made a beautiful comparison with human beings: "This magnificent butterfly finds a little heap of dirt and sits still on it; but man will never on his heap of mud keep still..."

Do you sometimes feel unsure whether you can face your setbacks? Or do you effortlessly keep your calm so that you stay close to the solutions?

Look back for a moment and see how far you have already come. The mud heap will bring you something too. Facing your obstacles gives you dignity. Just like the striking black and white colour contrast on the wings: no day without night, no light without darkness, no victory without effort…
