The figure is a female not a male, this is very important. Women in Tarot represent subconsciousness.
As for the butterfly, I generally take the symbol to be one of transformation because of how the caterpillar goes into a cocoon and is totally transformed when he leaves it.
I am doing a long and careful study of each and every Tarot archetype. I’m not on the series of Spirit yet however, so I can’t really say much about this card.
Ra calls it the Star of Hope. Key XVII the Star, in Ra’s system, is the Catalyst of Spirit. Spirit has been potentiated at this point (the Tower). Within the Star is a dual-colored black and white diamond. I take this be a symbol of polarity.
That’s about as much as I feel comfortable saying. I’ve been studying the Qabalistic system for Tarot, but the images for the esoteric and Egyptian Stat archetype are essentially the same. I will study this card today and share what I have learned!
