Celina Jaitly Instagram – A photograph with my biggest nightmare!!
Last month at the natural history museum at @benediktinerstiftadmont in Austria I took the courage to enter the butterfly room and face my nightmare… My BP fell just upon entering the room lol, this was the only selfie I could manage by the BLUE MORPHO #butterflies Because I have an excessive and irrational fear of butterflies and there is even a scientific name for this phobia : Lepidopterophobia 😄
Symptoms of lepidopterophobia or any phobia can vary from person to person and in my case it’s extreme. It’s because a swarm of over a few thousand #monarchbutterflies sat on me when I was 3 years old while playing in the garden when my father ( an army officer) was posted in #assam My mom always said ever since I have been petrified of moths and butterflies 🦋
In this photograph you see scientific preserved specimens of the “blue morpho” which is among the largest butterflies in the world, with wings spanning from five to eight inches. ( Shuddering as I write 🦋)
