Luna shows herself as a butterfly because she needs to free herself from the "cocoons" that hold her. This metaphor extends throughout the book, as it takes her to muster up the courage to open these cocoons throughout the story.

<h3>What are the cocoons that hold Luna?</h3>
  • The family.
  • The society.
  • The insecurity.
  • The fear.
  • The lack of courage.

Luna is a transgender girl who is still finalizing her transition to the female gender. This transition is what allows her to be compared to a butterfly, through metaphors that show that in addition to transition, she must break her cocoons, that is, leave behind everything that prevents her from being free.

What are some different situations in which Bilbo's ring helps him out of a jam? Does the ring make Bilbo tougher than he really
sladkih [1.3K]
The first situation in which he used it to get himself out of a jam was when he was escaping from the cave in which he met smeagol, who we know is intensely aggressive when it comes to the ring. He slipped the ring on and it made him seemingly disappear. Another, much more trivial situation was when he bid everyone farewell at his birthday party basically as a show stopper (but also to avoid the judging eyes and boring personalities of his fellow hobbits).

The ring does not make Bilbo tougher, if anything, it makes him weaker. The power of the ring breaks him down mentally and physically.
