Cicadas are beautiful creatures, steeped in rich symbolism and meaning. They spend years underground, growing among the root systems of trees, before shedding their skins to emerge as vibrant, winged beings. Their transformation represents renewal, rebirth, and the cyclical nature of life. For many, cicadas symbolise perseverance, patience, and the beauty of change—emerging after long periods of growth into a fleeting, but powerful, existence.
