The Bumblebee

The bumblebee is a symbol for self-improvement and harnessing your strength to heal, grow, and evolve. A tiny warrior! In many cultures the bumblebee is seen as a messenger of wisdom and a symbol of community. Although they work on their own, it is the strength of the collective hive that produces the nectar.
