Echofish Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 Today, I saw a black butterfly - or was it a moth?- during my auntie's funeral. We were quite early, and it was there since the start. I think I'm the only one who noticed it (It was perched on the stained glass, quite hard to see) As we were leaving to go the cemetery, it flew outside and up, to heaven I hope :) My auntie died last Saturday. A car skidded on a wet road and hit her from behind; she never knew what hit her. She was instantly unconcious and died a few minutes later. Whether it's a coincidence that the butterfly was there, I still think it was a sign. She touched a lot of people as a nurse since 1975 and as a great friend overall. She's one of our only direct relatives here in the UK. She's at a safe place now, she's always with us xx Ultra Unholy,Hearted Machine... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samurai_lassie Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 Quiet unusual about the butterfly, sad to see your auntie die, do not be too sad. 563rd to 99 mining on 15/08/0799 Farming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThoseTheBrokes Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 Perhaps a coincidence, but nonetheless it's still quite symbolic. I'm sorry to hear about your Auntie too, but let's not turn this into a sad thread :wink: smiles all round. My dA account..retired, as of the 1st January 2008.

Revenga Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 So did she die right after the wedding was over? :wink: Might want to fix that. Wasn't trying to offend, and with you I doubt I will. :-s |Msg me me in-game | IrreIephant| ^ capital i Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rushrock Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 Exactly like hell butterflies in Bleach. Peace to your aunt, peace to you and your family, and remember to smile. Try looking for that butterfly again also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercifull Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 Sorry for your sad loss and I wasn't sure to post on here not at risk of sounding insensitive. As comforting as it may be it just sounds like a day flying moth which can look very much like black butterflies. Once again i am sorry for your loss, I am just very sceptical.

purfishx Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 Hell butterflies in Bleach are used as radios, aren't they? Well anyways, I think that was cool.

runescapeloser22 Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 Sorry about your aunt, how old was she? (If you don't mind saying) I don't know what a Hell Butterfly is, but it sounds like a coincidence that it was there. I didn't even know there were black butterflies though? :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powman3 Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 I'm sorry for your Auntie. My granddfather died last Friday, I feel your pain. Anyway, that's pretty cool/ironic/creepy.

InkofDeath Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 Exactly like hell butterflies in Bleach. Exactly what I was thinking. Very symbolic, it's a good thought to cherish, a very good thought that should enlighten the burden of death. Good thoughts to you. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Echofish Posted November 10, 2007 Author Share Posted November 10, 2007 Thanks guys. Everywhere I go, I see flowers by the roads meaning that somebody has died there. What I didn't expect is that I'm going to be one of the people affected by road accidents Ultra Unholy,Hearted Machine... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barihawk Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 Sorry for your sad loss and I wasn't sure to post on here not at risk of sounding insensitive. As comforting as it may be it just sounds like a day flying moth which can look very much like black butterflies. Once again i am sorry for your loss, I am just very sceptical. What's there to be skeptical about? He was only talking about it being symbolic. He's not trying to prove that the moth was his aunt. Sorry for your loss. I have lost both grandmothers and an uncle this year. My heart is broken by the terrible loss I have sustained in my old friends and companions and my poor soldiers. Believe me, nothing except a battle lost can be half so melancholy as a battle won. -Sir Arthur Wellesley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IGoddessI Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 I had a very similar experience to you. I was walking to the bus stop on my way to work and a yellow butterfly followed me for 15 mins and landed on my nose as I stopped. My phone rang and it was my friendÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s sister saying my friend had just passed away when his car skidded out of control in to an on coming double semi. On the day of the funeral I was filling out the memory book of comments to be burnt with his ashes and a yellow butterfly came past and landed on my nose again. It was quite comforting if you've seen my tattoo before it has a yellow butterfly with the Egyptian sign for life in it's wings on my back. The only people who tell you that you can't do something are those who have already given up on their own dreams so feel the need to discourage yours.
