Ladybug

What the tradition holds

Read as luck arriving, and as a small good thing that should not be brushed off.

Where that reading came from

The name is medieval: the beetle ate the aphids and the crop survived, and the credit went to Our Lady. The luck is agricultural.

They come indoors in autumn to overwinter, in numbers. That is the likeliest reason one is on your wall.
