Catching a butterfly is the way you try to catch a bit of lightness before it flies away. This dream shows a desire to grasp a joy that is naturally meant to move and change.
A person who tries to hold such a fleeting grace often finds that the very act of grasping alters the thing they love. I have reached for a sunbeam in my own life, only to find my hand closed on nothing but air. You possess a spirit that recognizes the value of these passing sparks, dear. There is a way to let the bright things pass through your day without trying to keep them in a jar.
Holding a butterfly adds the weight of a wish to make a temporary feeling permanent. Because this creature is so delicate, the dream suggests that your attempt to keep a delight can make it feel fragile or fixed.
To see butterflies in a dream is to find that joy is coming to you from many different corners at once.

Benedita LumeInterpreter interprets your dreams
Well, dear, the old houses never treated a dream as a stranger at the door. A dream was given a chair at the table like a cousin from far away. Most of what it carries is a warm sign about the life already around you, and even a hard one is usually a reminder about something small at home. Rest easy. The house is still standing.
