Honey Bees are one of nature's most important workers pollinating approximately 130 agricultural crops I the USA. Bees have been around 30 million years and their honey has been used medicinally in diverse cultures throughout history. Honey bees represent the soul in many cultures including the Greeks and Egyptians. Since bees were likened to Gods and Deities they were used to symbolize royalty, particularly the Napoleonic Empire. Purity, social order and community, activity, diligence and work are all expressions relating to the honey bee.
