The Spirituality of Bees [View all]
I went to a talk on this subject Friday night. The presenter of this information was a dear friend of mine. She's been working with honeybees for the last six years and is producing a book full of information from the bees themselves.
The bees we call "worker bees", they call maidens. The bees that modern beekeepers often send to their deaths because they believe there is no purpose for drones? The bees call the drones the holiest of bees. They are allowed into any hive, where they enter the nursery where the baby bees, which the bees call pips, are forming. There, the drones sing the song of life to the baby bees, before they're even born. They sing of their past and their purpose in life.
When my friend Jacqueline asked the bees what they call themselves, a hive or what. They call themselves a Unity.
I'll be alerting you to the progress of how this book is coming and in the meantime, please be sure to watch "Queen of the Sun." My friend Jacqueline is one of the farmers in the documentary.
