Bee

Bee is the regular sign of the seventh month.

Those Born Under the Sign

Like the bees themselves, those born under this sign are hardworking and dedicated to their goals - humble and direct, relying on their work for a sense of purpose and needing few earthly possessions. To be pleased with their work is enough; but a well-founded compliment on their achievements will go a long way toward making a Bee your ally.

Patron God

The Bee answers to Zeus. The stories tell how, in the cave on Mount Dicte where the infant Zeus was hidden from his father, sacred bees fed him honey - earning Zeus the title Melissaios, “the bee man.” In gratitude he made the bees bright gold and strong enough to weather cold and wind. Rarer still are the Bees blessed by the Muses, who send bees to lay honey on their lips and sweeten their voices; for this it is said that “to be a fine bard is to Bee a fine bard” (as with the bard Baynard Clint).

Profession

Though Bees are sometimes taken for underachievers, their unmatched teamwork and drive all but guarantee success in their field (pun intended). Some lean toward deep professional expertise, others find their purpose in management - but whatever the goal, a Bee will stop at nothing to see their calling through. Most turn to manual labour, some to the arts, and a rare few are blessed by the Muses.

Love Life

A Bee’s personal life always comes second to their work. Even so, they are supportive and loyal spouses. Needing little for themselves, a Bee tends to pour into unbalanced relationships and may be exploited for their devotion - so if your spouse was born under this sign, remember: a Bee won’t ask for much, but they deserve the world.

Possible flaws: lack of ambition, workaholism, loneliness, and motivation burnout.
