Killing a butterfly is the act of putting an end to a grace that was meant to lift the spirit. When you act to crush a small joy, you find that the lightness which belonged to the whole house begins to fade away.
Such a way of behaving toward the delicate things of life often comes from a hardness that does not know its own strength. This dream shows how a sudden heaviness in your heart can stifle the very things that bring a smile to your face, child, and in doing so, it leaves the people around you to walk in a more somber light. A shadow falls over the room when you strike at what is meant to fly. The peace of your neighbors is found in the gentle way you hold the small wonders of the world.
Killing butterflies means that the delight you seek is not lost, but merely passing through your hands too quickly. This dream shows that the many small joys of life are too numerous to be held or broken, and they will continue to dance around your threshold regardless of your attempts to catch them.

Efua NyansaInterpreter interprets your dreams
Sit down first, child. The dream is not going anywhere. The elders used to say that a person is never read alone. Whoever stood beside you in the dream matters as much as what you saw, and the path behind you matters as much as the one ahead. Look, a dream with your people in it has already done half its work. May the name you were given keep you well.
