Animals

Single bee

One bee away from the hive — a small, purposeful errand on behalf of a larger structure.

A single bee in a dream is the dream's image of a small, purposeful errand on behalf of a larger structure. The bee alone is not random; she carries the work of the hive. The dream brings the bee when something in your life — a message, an errand, a small task taken on for a community — is being carried out by one person on behalf of many. A bee moving from flower to flower in a clear pattern is the dream affirming the errand. A bee trapped behind glass, with the hive on the other side, is the dream noting that the errand is being prevented, and the structure that depends on it is not getting what it sent the bee to bring.
