In Celtic tradition, the deer embodies both feminine and masculine elements, symbolizing femininity, grace, independence, and protection of the forest. The legend of Saint Eustace further reinforces the Christian symbolism of the deer, portraying it as a messenger of God and a symbol of piety and devotion.
For Native American tribes, the deer serves as a messenger, power animal, and fertility symbol. According to that tradition, deers are by nature timid and serene animals and their presence in a place represents the purity of a kingdom bereft of fear. There are also Tibetan legends in which deer help men to solve problems.
For the Silver Jubilee celebrations, an integration of the Green monarch butterfly is adding another layer of symbolism. In Christianity, butterflies are associated with transformation and resurrection, reflecting spiritual growth and renewal. The butterfly's presence forms a central element of newness , symbolizing harmony and the pursuit of extraordinary realities. Green is often associated with life, growth, and prosperity in the Bible (Psalm 52:8). Consequently, a green butterfly can be seen as a symbol of spiritual growth or the prosperous journey a believer takes in developing a deeper relationship with God.
