What does it mean spiritually when a butterfly visits your house? Let’s find out!
I’ve always loved butterflies. As a kid, I loved looking at them, especially after I found out in school what they go through to get their wings and fly.
To me, this creature is an epitome of grace and beauty.
I must have also visited more than five butterfly farms in this lifetime. It doesn’t seem a lot but with each visit I’ve had, I made sure to be fully in the present and enjoy practically everything that I am seeing.
Recently, I was brainstorming in our garden on what my possible topics should be in the coming weeks. And as I was deep in thought with my drink in hand, there flew a lovely butterfly.
It was as if the butterfly was telling me “Write about me“. Given my passion for seeing butterflies, I didn’t hesitate to write down the topic of butterflies for my next post.
What Does It Mean When a Butterfly Visits Your House?
It is natural to see butterflies visiting your home. But what does this mean? Should I pay attention to the color?
Here’s what it means when this happens.
When a white butterfly visits your house:
When you see a white butterfly visiting your home, then take this as a reminder from the heavens to have pure intentions.
The ones above, after all, know that many people do things not because their intentions are pure but for self-serving reasons.
You may want to think of your motivations of late. Consider reflecting on various circumstances in your life such as the last time you helped someone.
Did you help this person because you genuinely wanted to be a blessing to him or her? Or did you do it to have something to brag about or for other personal gain or reason?

When a black butterfly visits your house:
When a black butterfly visits you at home, it may mean various things:
- If the black butterfly is in your garden, this is a warning to be careful when you are outside your home at night time. You may end up in an accident in the dark.
- If the black butterfly is inside your home, then your kids or any other minors should be extra careful as one of them may end up getting hurt physically.
- If the black butterfly is just outside your gate, then this could be a warning from the ones above to be careful of the people you allow to enter your home. Some of them are not exactly what they seem to be or claim to be.

When an orange butterfly visits your house:
When an orange butterfly visits you at home, then this is heaven’s reminder to break free from your nasty or unhelpful habits.
The ones above want you to live a full and meaningful life and so you must let go of habits that do not serve you well.
For instance, if you are a smoker then consider quitting smoking soon. If you are habitually late, then you may want to make an effort to come in on time.

When a yellow butterfly visits your house:
When a yellow butterfly visits you at home, then this is a sign of a reunion that’s about to happen soon.
The reunion may be big or small.
For example, you may run into an old friend whom you have not seen for years and you will be catching up. You may also be attending a high school reunion or a family reunion.
The reunion could also be with an object you’ve had in the past like a missing toy or a favorite piece of clothing.
When a green butterfly visits your house:
When a green butterfly visits your home, then be happy. This is a sign that more money is coming your way soon.
This could be an additional steady source of cash like a new business opportunity or a promotion.
When a black and white butterfly visits your house:
A black and white butterfly visiting your home means that you will soon be receiving both good and bad news. They may either come at the same time or may arrive one after the other.
This is heaven’s way of reminding you that life can be quite unpredictable.
One moment you may be receiving some good news and the next moment you will be crying because of the bad news.
The black and white butterfly you spotted at your home should prepare you for both kinds of news coming your way.
