About this listen
In this mesmerizing episode, Adrian Adair, The King of Butterflies, takes you on a journey back 5,000 years to the golden age of the Pharaohs, where butterflies were more than fleeting beauties—they were symbols of the soul, eternity, and divine transformation.
From hieroglyphs and temple carvings to amulets buried with the dead, butterflies played a role in Egyptian mythology, funeral rites, and sacred rituals. The Egyptians saw the butterfly as a reflection of the Ba, the part of the soul that could move freely between the realms of the living and the dead. Even today, butterflies still flutter across the landscapes of Egypt, carrying echoes of an ancient civilization’s wisdom and reverence for nature.
Join us as we decode the myths, the symbolism, and the science behind the Pharaoh’s butterflies, revealing why these delicate creatures were considered messengers of transformation and immortality.
