Dreaming of Killing a Butterfly - dream meaning with inherited lore

You chase the butterfly with your hand or an object until it stops moving. Later, you may be left feeling sorry or uneasy.

Korean lore: Traditionally, harming a butterfly has sometimes been interpreted as a scene where the flow of change or connection is blocked. But if getting rid of it left you relieved, it may also suggest bringing a long-delayed matter to a close. (In folk dream interpretations, a living butterfly represents the energy of change and news, while harming it is connected with images of separation or loss.)

Through the mind: You may be trying to forcefully end an unwanted change or relationship. If you have been blaming yourself over a recent mistake or rejection, that feeling may have made the scene feel heavier.
