The butterfly has become a meaningful symbol in the lupus community. About half of people with lupus develop a distinctive malar rash across their face in the shape of a butterfly, which is why this beautiful insect was chosen to represent the condition.

Beyond being connected to the physical symptoms, butterflies represent hope within the lupus community. They symbolize transformation and the ongoing scientific discoveries being made in lupus research. While having a butterfly land on you may feel special, what's more powerful is using butterfly imagery to raise awareness. Many in the lupus community embrace being "winged warriors" - advocating for research, understanding, and eventually a cure for lupus. The butterfly serves as a unifying symbol that connects people affected by lupus.
