Did you know the bee is an ancient and mystical symbol meaning "all is possible"? Life's joys are as sweet as nectar, and, if we pursue our dreams, we can drink from that elixir, just like a bee. When a bee comes onto your path, Native Americans and mystics say it's a sign to put all your efforts into your dreams. 

The bee propelling its large, round body on such small wings seems to defy the laws of gravity. Scientists only recently discovered the secret of bees' flight: their wings move at incredible speed, turning in the air to produce an incredible force. The bee reminds us that all is possible if we can dream. 

Bees are one of numerous symbols existing all around us. Learning to speak the language of symbology enhances your life through accessing the world's hidden inspiration. Join me for this online class as we dive into the meanings of various flowers, plants, animals, insects, color and more!

"I use to have a hard time finding the inspiration needed to change my life. I often thought to myself, is this all there is? [to my life] I didn’t know what I wanted. I just knew there had to be more. Then I took Stephey’s class and WOW a whole new world opened up. I am still “discovering” what I want to do with my life but now I feel a renewed sense of meaning and inspiration. Stephey’s class really helped me see the power of inspiration and how if we choose to follow it, it will lead us to our joy. I am doing just that." VG
