A Death Head's Moth is perfect for anyone seeking the spiritual path of change and unseen beauty as it can symbolize transformation and rebirth-much as a butterfly.  The skull can be seen as a symbol of defying death as the moth transforms and emerges reborn anew.  As you can imagine the Death's Head Moth can be seen in many different lights and can symbolize many different things to each individual.  

The death's head hawk moth has been associated with death, mystery, and other mystical beliefs throughout history: 
Ancient Egypt: The moth was a symbol of the afterlife and was depicted in funerary art.
Medieval Europe: The moth was believed to be a harbinger of death.
Popular culture: The moth has been featured in films and TV shows such as The Silence of the Lambs and Hannibal.
Folklore: The moth has been featured in literature and art, such as Thomas Hardy's The Return of the Native and William Holman Hunt's The Hireling Shepherd.
The death's head hawk moth is named for the skull-like markings on its thorax. It is a large, nocturnal moth that can hover in place and squeak when alarmed. The most well-known species is Acherontia atropos, which is found in Europe and Africa. 
It's a symbol that dances between light and dark, life and death, the seen and the unseen. It's more than just a harbinger of doom; it's a reminder to look deeper, to ponder life's big questions, and to appreciate the complexity of the world around us.
