Symbols Bouncing the ball on the tennis court the other day, preparing to serve, the tensions were high, the score 30/40. I had to get this game to deuce. Envisioning hitting to my opponent’s backhand, I bounce the ball again. My eye catches something on the ground, a bee lying on the court. I can’t hit the bee.

Can’t step on the bee. Can’t kill it. Not because I’m afraid of it, but because I revere it. Love it and want to help it survive. I stop the game, grab a leaf, move it to the side of the court. Surprisingly, everyone breathes a sigh of relief.

“Why are so many bees on the courts these days?” one person asks. And if this was a spiritual group, I’d tell them what bumblebees symbolize in spirituality.

But let’s be real, this is tennis, think “type A” Personalities at their worst sprinkled with snobby affluence. So I choose not to pause the game, sharing my insights and wisdom about why bees are showing up. 

But you, my friend, you are here because you want to know the symbolic spiritual meaning of the bumblebee.

Our Guides communicate to us in symbols. Everything is a symbol. The butterfly, repetitive numbers, your uncle in a dream, and the Bumblebee. Not only does it have meaning, but what it does is even more important. Whether it’s flying around you, following you wherever you go, lying on a court waiting to be rescued or landing on your knee. You can be sure this bee has a very special meaning just for you from your Spirit Guides.

What Is The Spiritual Meaning Of A Bumblebee

It is important to know the significance of the symbol, but you also want to be aware of what you are dreaming about when the symbol shows up. Your Guides are answering your questions, and communicating with you through symbols. And they use that bee to tell you what to do next. They are guiding you to the solutions and you can’t get to those answers if you aren’t even aware of what you thinking of when you see the bee. 

Maybe it’s been a couple of days since this happened and you can’t remember what you were thinking about. Don’t worry. Ask yourself now, what dream are you looking to bring to fruition? What you are desiring to experience? What are you working towards to make come true? How can you be more of a leader in your life?

The Symbolism of the Bumblebee

Bumblebees have amazing significance and are quite incredible. Their overall meaning is they are messengers of impossible dreams coming true. Some say that bees’ bodies are too big and their wings too small to fly. But the bee doesn’t know that, so it flies. The bee is asking you to rewrite a belief riddled with doubt into one steeped in hope. 

What belief do you need to re-write that is holding you back from living what you may think is impossible? How can you add more sweetness to your life? How can you feel more joy? The bee is flying into your life, letting you know nothing is impossible if you dream and believe it.

Bees are also known for getting things done through focused action. Where aren’t you taking action? Where are you pausing? Make a plan, write it down, and take action. Bees give life to creative ideas. They ask you to stop hiding and instead get comfortable being seen. They want you to bring your joy and sweetness to others through your gifts. Own your leadership ability and walk towards your goals. You may be afraid but do it anyway

Meaning Of A Bumblebee Flying Around You

Now that you have a basic understanding of what the bumblebee means, you may wonder why is it flying around you? Think about it? When a bee flies around you, it is asking you to Move! Get into action! It’s also lighting you up. You may feel fear when you see it, but you also feel ALIVE. The bee is reminding you; you are here to live a life. A life you desire. One where your visions come true

Get moving and doing, but go in a calculated direction. Bees have jobs. They don’t aimlessly do things. They know what their job is and they do it! What have you been needing to do and are not doing? The bee is pushing you into action.

They are offering you ideas, and suggestions to get into action. They inspire you to get creative and pollinate your dreams. To ignite the light in your soul and achieve your ambitions. 

Flailing around doesn’t necessarily keep you safe from being stung. The bee is teaching you to go into calculated action and pursue your goals. Plan it out, write it down and then do it. Are you floundering too much, humming around, not taking action, telling yourself you will get to it? Bumblebees are reminding you that too much waiting until the time is right, and life will pass you by. Get into action and commit to it for the next 28 days.

Meaning Of A Bumblebee Following You

Maybe bees have been following you lately. They have been your constant companion, following you wherever you go. That bee is acting as a Spirit Guide right now.

Letting you know you aren’t alone. That you have this sweet nectar inside of you that needs to be released? People need to hear your buzz.

That thing you have been wanting to say. Write, get out into the world. Bees are guiding you to do it. Let the creative juices flow and release it out into the world. 

What Does it Mean if a Bee Lands On You? 

That bee is asking you to stay calm, focus, and breathe. When a bee lands on you, they are reminding you don’t have to be afraid. Maybe you are scared of taking that risk, asking for what you need, going for that new job, putting yourself out there.

The bee is reminding you can brush fear away, focus on your breath and know that you are special. Bee is acting as a Guide and your Guides are always with you. When the bee flies away, it’s getting ready to pollinate a flower again, reminding you to take focused direction and pollinate your dreams. 

Bees can be like Power Animals. Your best Guide. Reminding you that those dreams in your heart are meant to be lived. 

The next time a bee follows you around, buzzes around you, lands on you, I want you to ask it. What does it want you to know? Go deeper into a place you may have not gone before. All symbols can have a general meaning, but that symbol and your Guides are asking you to go deeper into the conversation, into the “Symbolic Language of your Soul.”

This is the place where you interpret why this bumblebee is coming specifically to you. You can’t google this answer because the answers lie in your soul. 

Tuning into the Symbolic Language of Your Soul

Every symbol has a meaning based on your life experiences and your Guides know that and they use it to have an intimate relationship with you. To communicate a special message only for you.

Are you ready to learn how to break down the symbol of a bumblebee based on the symbolic language of your soul? To find out what your Guide really wants you to know? What action they are asking you to take?

Next time you see a bee. Ask a question out loud about a dream you are desiring to come true. Try not to make it a yes or no answer because you may be attached to the answer and your Guide has something to teach you that can carry you into a place that is more magical than you can imagine.

You can ask what do you need to know regarding this dream? Where do you need to go to learn how to make this dream come true? Why aren’t you taking action? 

Starting your question with a what, where or why allows you to detach from outcome and learn something truly remarkable about yourself that you may need to adopt in order to succeed in your dream, and it helps you to communicate with the symbol at the moment. Of course, if you are afraid of getting stung, calmly move away and then do this work. 

Once you have your question. Breathe, get quiet, and listen for the answers. Use your imagination. 

And if you still struggle, use some of these fun tools. Imagine the bee is singing you a song. What song is it singing? Imagine the bee is acting like a famous person, who is it and what character trait does that famous person have. Think about a memory you have of a bee. What were you doing when you saw it? What were you like? Does that memory have anything to do with what you want to do today? 

Learning Lessons From your Guides

One of my strongest memories of a bee was stepping on one at a pool and getting stung by it. I was always afraid of being stung by a bee and when it happened; it hurt for a bit, but I survived. I moved on from it and continue to have fun at the pool. What message would my Guides have for me using this memory? That something may sting, but you can move onto it and still have splendid success and fun. 

So the next time you see a bee. Get into conversation with the deeper meaning that it is providing for you. Play with some tools above and see what insights you receive. You can’t get this wrong. That bee has a special message just for you and he wants you to know it so you can live the impossible dream.
