You will have the opportunity to make your wishes upon a tagged butterfly and that butterfly will be released then and there
from Port Washington NY on its journey to Mexico. You will receive the tag number *where you can follow sightings on the Monarch Watch Website.
Tanya will share her story of the Monarch Butterfly and the serendipitous ways they have shown up in her life.
You may also see symbolism in the release as letting go of the past and embracing a future in which your special person is remembered and honored.
The significance of butterflies as signs of life after death is a worldwide belief. The release of a butterfly can be seen as a symbol of the release of the pain of grief.
Seeing butterflies shortly after losing a loved is a beautiful sign that the spirit of your loved one lives on.
