BUTTERFLY 30 September - 27 October
T
his Celtic animal lives up to the adage “social butterfly”, flitting from friend to friend at parties and always in contact with loved ones (they’re the ones always on the phone or text). Tey can’t help it. Butterflies are gentle souls who can’t be
tied down for very long. Tey love to dream, express new ideas and talk about big plans with all their friends. Tese are the people who brighten any dark day with their cheer and magnetically bright personalities. Tey are naturally empathetic and would never intentionally harm anyone. Rather, they make friends easily and like to see others uplifted. Butterflies bring a sense of wonder and youth to our world. Keep these people around you to remind you of how truly good life can be.
