It keeps our hope in life at a time when each day we face different problems than the previous.
Connecting with your inner light is quieting the noise.
By that, reflecting, meditating and introspecting.
It is to hold our ground, and let the light shine illuminating – showing us where we should go next.
The more we feel into this light, the more it reveals to us that it has always been present within and before us all along, ever quietly standing by our side, waiting for its recognition in resonance.
Consider a moth landing on you as divine guidance to do soul-searching cleaning work.
It is the light within you that serves as your compass, navigator and rejuvenator.
Trust it, heed its call and allow yourself to be guided into a life of clarity, knowingness and deep understanding.
It is about inner guidance
Moths use intuition flying the night using their inner compass.
If a moth lands on you, it may be that your inner voice is telling you to trust yourself.
Consider this interaction as a wake-up call to listen to the voice inside and trust your gut instincts.
The more experience I gain, the more time I place on my initial instincts before asking for reasons.
When visited by the moth in this way, it is a clear sign that your inner wisdom wants you to do so from now on — including making life decisions.
Sometimes intuition is a whisper more than an alarm.
Listen with a still mind and an open heart.
From what I have noticed, the better and more consistent I get at checking in with my intuition, then not only does it become louder but also firmer.
It is as though every time I give my inner voice its bow. It becomes that much louder and clearer for me — never misleading or erroneous.
Throughout my life, I have encountered an immeasurable amount of instances when logic and reason appeared to lead me in a certain direction while, at the same time, my intuition tugged within me to another.
Whenever I listened to my intuition, it, even if not immediately apparent, placed me on the right track.
It has shown me that what is right for us will be in complete harmony with our greatest good and the benevolence of spirit, whatever outwardly may seem quotidian to otherwise wise.
Trusting your intuition is a muscle you need to build.
It takes practice, time and a readiness to be wrong and learn.
There will be moments when the route forward seems obscure and uncertain, but it is at that point you should just trust your gut.
It is about vulnerability
Moths are such fragile little beings, with wings so delicate a breeze can damage them.
This vulnerability is a key ingredient in their spiritual symbolism.
If a moth flies and lands on you, it may mean that now is the time to accept your vulnerabilities.
Thinking about this, it dawned on me how often we are taught to fight and push our vulnerabilities down, to pretend all the time that everything is fine.
Our culture loves a badass who can handle anything and bounce back from any blow; generally, it’s not cool to be open, honest and quiet.
The real strength is showing courage to face we are weak, and mankindly connecting with our people.
And when a moth by chance alights on my shirtsleeve, I interpret it as the universe whispering to me that I should learn how to accept vulnerability.
It is in these moments that I remember it is okay to be a bit fragile.
Vulnerability is ITSELF, a change in the way we see things.
It is about the connection to the spirit world
All around the world, people see moths as carriers for departed souls.
In a lot of cultures, humans believe that when you find or have dreams about a moth, it’s really a loved one giving off messages.
When a moth lands on you, it can be seen as a sign that someone needs your comfort or is simply there to guide and reassure you!
The relationship to the spirit world can be very grounding, speaking of something permanent and ongoing in a way that extends beyond linear time.
I have frequently experienced a calming peace when in deep emotional distress or life-changing circumstances and moths are around.
It’s like a caress from the other side — an inherent, unspoken connection.
This bond can provide comfort in knowing our family is still with us, looking out for us and caring for us from beyond the grave.
The fact that moths are spiritual messengers is a sign of how close this world actually is with the other realm, and it seems so to be in contact or communicate in unexpected ways.
The link to the spirit world via moths has saved me countless times over from despair.
Like these little beings are indeed the messengers of divine grace, holding a hand to link that ethereal and material space.
Moths landing on us might also mean that life and death come in cycles.
From this perspective, each moth found feels like nothing else than an opportunity to remember the cyclical nature of life and death, an homage to our loved ones who have returned to Mother Earth with a promise that their energy stays ever transforming.
The Significance of Color and Species
The exact color and type of the moth that lands on you can hold specific symbolic meanings.
For instance, a white moth can represent purity, peace and spiritual ascension, while the black one is mostly about mystery, intuition or secrets.
A white moth settling on me can bring a feeling of peace and safety. It says to me to be at peace amid chaos and surrender in my spiritual walk.
On the other hand, meeting a black moth has other vibes.
It pertains to the secrets of life, mistries that are yet to be unfolded.
When a black moth lands on me, that is saying to go even deeper into my intuition and to listen for guidance from within myself.
The dark has always had a way of drawing me in, beckoning for me to discover the depths within my life and myself that lie hidden.
A colored moth definitely puts a smile on my face and lightens things up wherever I am.
It reminds me of how we should celebrate the natural splendor and great variety that is life.
When I have these experiences, they inspire me to find the light in my own life, what makes me happy and fulfilled.
