The Big Dictionary of Dreams
by Martha ClarkeIf dreaming they are making honey or collecting pollen, chances are you will have material success in the short term. Networking and teamwork will be beneficial and profitable to you. Laborious bees in dreams could also be a reference to your current working pace; perhaps you are not getting satisfactory outcome for the time and energy invested. On the other hand, to see bees in a flower announces a new love will come into your life.
Dreaming of bees is considered a positive omen of health, strength, wealth, and prosperity. Usually, one single bee promises engagements and children; many, favorable business; if they are working, good hopes, and if they are swarming, abundant profits. However, not all dreams related to bees are positive.
If you dream that they sting you, you could be subject to libel; whereas, if you dream of killing a bee, you will be unable to avoid ruin. A widespread popular superstition recommends you never chase away the bees but rather leave the windows open so they come inside. This way, you will be safe from enemies.
