Die Basisdeutung von Schmetterling
A butterfly in a dream is the dictionary's image of completed transformation. The butterfly is the form the caterpillar took after a period of being closed up; the dream often appears at the moment when a long inner change has resulted in a visibly different self.
A butterfly landing on you in the dream is the small image of recognition — the dream noting that the change in you is real and visible to others.
Where you often see it. A butterfly settled briefly on the dreamer's hand. A butterfly in a garden. The dream uses the butterfly for transformation completed — what came out the other side of a closed phase.
What it is not. A butterfly is not always literal beauty. The dictionary reads it as the dreamer's emerged self after a held phase.
Related in the dictionary. Read butterfly with cocoon contexts, frog (another stage-changer), and any scene of finished transformation.
