In the middle of a big clean up on Sunday, I was on the upstairs landing, having just cleaned the kitchen downstairs, and the bathroom and toilet, washed all the floors and was about to hand-brush the carpeted stairs, a huge bee appeared from somewhere. Windows were opened ~ and usually once a flying insect comes inside, its really hard to get them out. I saw the bee and acknowledged it was there, and I turned back to the job of brushing down the stairs, it just seemed to dissappear.. It flew off somewhere and I didn't see it again...Michaela



What does this mean? I have been having some key insights lately, too many to actually keep up with. Also I have been applying aspects from the 'Master Key' and have adopted the mission statement ~~"do everything to the best of your ability" which ultimately means ~~ bringing Presence In. 
I have been very productive over the last week, both spiritually and physically, and I have been on a huge mission to accomplish certain things, clearing energy in myself and in my home, which also includes a huge decluttering of old and outdated ways of being, and opening up to new ways of being. I like that the Bee came to me and I feel it is a symbol of being a Pollinator, bringing life to new ideas and ideals. Michaela.



I also like this definition:
Bumble bee as your spirit animal symbolizes focuspatience, and perseverance as it is considered to bring the message of life’s secrets, showing you how to stick to your resolve and achieve something.

Productivity, efficiency, and laboriousness naturally ooze from your very being. However, since balance is yet another characteristic trait of the bee totem, you too like to take joy in what you do and consequently indulge in reaping its sweet rewards.

Bee Symbolism & Meaning
When Bee appears in your life the most common message it carries has to do with your levels of productivity. In some cases we are doing too much, and in others not enough. Bee spirit has a strong work ethic but it also knows the importance of stopping and smelling the flowers. There is a time to enjoy life’s nectar and a time to grab after the proverbial brass ring with vehemence. Bee helps with both, and in finding the delicate balance between the two.
Technically speaking Bee should not be able to fly – it’s designed all wrong aerodynamically. From a spiritual perspective this speaks of our limitations and how to move past them successfully. It’s doubtful that Bee knows it shouldn’t fly – it simply DOES, and so can you.
Bee fits a very specific role in nature pollinating other plants. This is necessary to the on-going life cycle of many crops. It also delivers humans with wax and honey, giving Bee the additional symbolic value of providence. Einstein believed so deeply in the importance of Bees to the ecosystem that he predicted if Bees disappeared humans would not survive more than four years afterward.
The pollination process also symbolizes our social nature. Bees live and work as a community. As they go from flower to flower, that progression enriches the world. Bee people very often become motivational speakers, teachers, healers and light workers for the greater global village. Their language of love is mindful service.
A Bee’s honeycomb represents the Heart Chakra and life’s sweetness. Bee has strong ties to the sun, light and warmth. This creature is sacred to Kama, the God of Love in Hinduism and epitomizes the Eleusinian Mysteries of Greece, honoring Demeter and Persephone.
Bee Spirit is also a strong protector, willing to give its life in defense of whatever mission prevails. Those guided by Bee find themselves defending the underdog as well as those they love with fierceness.

Bee Spirit Animal

When Bee comes to you as a Spirit Animal Guide it’s time to take inventory regarding your responsibilities. Are you over-extended or have you perhaps become languid and apathetic? Bee won’t tolerate either extreme.
Though Bees can carry 300 times their weight and never shirk their duty to community contributions, they also “stop and smell the roses” every day.
All your hard work means nothing if you don’t get to enjoy the rewards. Likewise, when life stagnates so does your spirit.
Another message from Bee Spirit has to do with working in groups, networking and community. Bee is not a loner and calls to all of us to get off life’s benches and jump into the “tribe” with true abandon!
If you feel that you’re facing impossible odds, you could not have a better Spirit Animal wing its way into your life. Bee is the master of miracles. No matter what you face, Bee will help you find that elusive solution.
See, Bees are not aerodynamically designed to be able to fly. But they really wanted to fly and adapted so they could. Bees flap their wings so fast they can buzz around like little rockets!
Always remember, Wild Ones, where there’s a will there is a way!

Bee Totem Animal

Those born with a Bee Totem have a real sense for managing personal energy. Your totem gives you clarity about your Path in life. Work is not a problem for you; nor is play.
The Bee’s soul-song mirrors Ecclesiastics 3: “to everything there is a season and a time to every purpose under Heaven”.
Those with Bee totems Tend toward autonomy when it comes to personal needs but are very socially focused otherwise. When they see a need there is no question of helping, particularly if it brings joy and promotes love.
Bees are amazing builders – from their hives to their intricate honeycombs. If you have chosen Bee as your Totem Animal always remember you can call on Bee Medicine when you need help with the architecture of your life and career.

Bee Power Animal

Bee as a Power Animal appears in a variety of Shamanic traditions.
As an emblem of abundance, persistence, industry, communication, teamwork and fruitfulness, call on Bee when you need these energies in your life, or when you wish to send a message to the Divine (particularly needs focused on work and community).
Bee Spirit is very helpful when you’re working with solar magic, particularly sun Goddesses. She also supports success when it feels like you’ve reached a standstill in a project or goal.
If you need support for fertility issues, let Bee energy in. It’s amazing what anxieties can dissipate when the warmth of Bee’s sunny spirit shines on your heart!

Bee as a Celtic Animal Symbol

Throughout Celtic tradition the Bee was a protected creature. It was from Bee’s honey that people made mead, a drink that appears in Paradise as nectar of the Gods. Mead was purported to have medicinal qualities.
As in other settings Bee is also a wise spiritual messenger. When someone died the farmer was to inform the bees so that they could take the news abroad.
Superstition tells us that when a Bee dances near your window it portends a guest’s arrival, and one entering the house was a sign of good luck.
In Ireland people believe you must treat bees respectfully or they will find a new home. They are, in fact, tiny members of the family who want to be part of all the news.

Far Eastern Bee Symbolic Meanings

In China Bee represents business advancements. In art, the Bee appearing with monkey and butterfly speaks of prosperity, and if depicted or partnered with bamboo Bee brings abundance.
