Today is one of the seventy-two microseasons, the day of “Vegetable worms turn into butterflies.”
This signifies the period when pupae, which have survived the cold winter, emerge and transform into beautiful butterflies.
In other words, it’s the arrival of the season when plain caterpillars undergo a vibrant transformation, bask in the soft light of spring, shimmer their brilliant wings, and freely flutter around the fields of spring.
If you go to a golf course or mountainous tourist spot, you’ll likely see cabbage butterflies fluttering about.
Like the dream bird or dream insect it’s often called, the sight of a butterfly dancing is somehow fleeting and beautiful.
When rape blossoms bloom and butterflies start to dance, you can feel the arrival of full-fledged spring.
