The butterfly emoji is a brightly colored emoji which – just like in real life – can come in many different shapes and colors! It is always shown with both wings out stretched and is usually shown in the orange, yellow and black colors of a monarch butterfly or the blue and black colors of the morpho butterfly. It is commonly used with the bug or caterpillar emoji or with flower emojis, and signifies beauty, elegance and freedom. It can also refer to a social butterfly: someone who can flit in and out of parties and make an impact regardless of the company or situation.
