Description
For the ancient Greeks the psyché (ψυχή) was the soul and the breath. Obviously, the term psyché indicates the psychic sphere, i.e. a sensitive soul and a reflective mind. But psyché also means breath, the vital breath that gives life: it is therefore the breath that gives the body the soul and the mind. But psyché also means butterfly. In mythology, the butterfly is the symbol of the soul, of the lightness and volatility of the vital spirit. The butterfly is also a symbol of fragility, of beauty but also of the brevity of life, of non-permanence but also of happiness. Psyche-butterfly is the personification of the breath of the soul.
