Butterflies represent transformation, expansion, growth, and access to new worlds and abilities. The butterfly energy assists one to be flexible and adaptable to the continual changes brought by the life experience. The butterfly symbolizes a joyful, graceful, and effortless embrace of these changes. Butterflies represent the ability of changing one's personality and attitudes to more positive expressions, encouraging rejuvenation and rebirth of the mind, emotions, and spiritual consciousness.

Butterflies are considered to be symbols of the soul. Chinese symbology considers the butterfly a symbol of immortality, and Ancient Greeks viewed the butterfly as representative of the psyche and its immortality. The butterfly exemplifies the ascension from a materialistic and earth bound consciousness to the heightened awareness and deeper levels of emotional and spiritual existence, leading one to experience a new soul based way of life. New perspectives, expressions of personality, and attitudes and behaviors are all inspired by the energy of the butterfly.

Butterflies also represent the ability to perceive the positive aspects of events and situations, and the conscious decision involved during these where one may choose to experience joy and remain lighthearted, rather than experience anxiety and unrest as one succumbs to distress and despair. Usually extremely colorful, the energy of the butterfly also encourages one to freely and openly express oneself, to joyfully share love, happiness, and an enthusiastic appreciation of beauty and that which brings inspiration.

Fire agate was formed between 24 and 36 million years ago in the southwestern United States and northern Mexico. During the Tertiary Period, massive volcanic activity caused heated water, containing iron oxide and silica, to permeate rocky areas, leading to the crystallization of the dissolved minerals. The iridescence within fire agate is due to the refraction of light as it passes between the layers of silica and layers of the included iron oxides, commonly referred to as limonite. This refraction gives the effect of bubbling structures within the stone, however there are no included physical formations in the stone, it is only the refraction of light in the alternating layers of limonite and silica. Fire agate is not subject to drying, scratching, or fading like some other iridescent crystals, and a gem cut fire agate is far more rare than diamonds, rubies, or emeralds.

Symbolizing the spiritual aspect of complete purity, fire agate provides protection from intentional harmful energies, reflecting them back to their source in a way that allows the sender to learn and understand the potential experiences caused by their actions.
