Bee (Beach) - Strength in numbers

Druid Animal Oracle
For today I've drawn a good card for the weekend from the Druid Animal Oracle: Bee. Its keywords are community, celebration and organization.
The card shows a queen bee resting on a stone. In the background we see the House of Mead Circling at Tara as it may have looked at the height of its powers. In the sky the noonday sun shines brightly and we see Ur, heather, growing by the rock which is carved with the Ur Ogham.
Beach invites us to celebrate. You may have a special reason for celebration, or you may simply need to celebrate the wonder and mystery of being alive.”
The bee teaches us we can live together in harmony as long as we uphold some kind of structure in our family and society. Each of us has a place in it which comes with its own responsibilities. But there is also time to celebrate. That is why we have “invented” the weekend. We gather together, enjoy our company and loosen up a bit; feeling fulfilled about our achievements of the past week. 
This weekend S. her boyfriend is coming to stay with us. Dental stress has faded. The weather is fine. Lots of reasons to feel good and celebrate. But it is also a reminder that I can delegate some of the work and I don’t have to do everything myself.

  2. That is a lovely card, and a lovely reminder for the weekend. Hope it has been a time of joyful celebration of being part of a loving family :) And hope you have let others do stuff for you, rather than trying to do everything!
