Greetings!
There was a special occurrence before and during the spiritual discourses in July. I saw a big "bee" every time I stepped onto the school fields!

Three days before the July discourses were to begin, I wanted to get myself mentally ready. I woke up early to go for a walk in the school fields. I wanted to take in the calm and peace of the early morn.
A year ago, a solid, tall fence was installed to replace the rusted see-through metal chainlink fence that separated the apartments and the schools. There were two openings for people to walk in. One of the openings was close to where I lived.
It was a beautiful morning. As soon as I walked past the fence, I saw a bee. I had never seen such a big bee! I saw small bees in the fields all the time, but this one was more than two inches long. It had a long abdomen with black and white stripes. Its head was yellow and black. It had long reddish wings. I stood there appreciating its beauty as it remained flying near me. During that time, it landed on a small piece of amber color glass over and over again. After a couple of minutes, it flew out of the fence toward the apartments. Seeing the beautiful bee, my heart was filled with delight.
When I was home, I told my husband about the bee. He listened to my description of the bee. He said it was not a bee but a wasp. I did not know much about insects, but he did. I went online to look for pictures of wasp. What I saw was a hornet.
The next morning, I did not wake up early. I went for a walk after breakfast. The second I stepped onto the school field, the hornet flew in from the apartment side of the fence. I thought what a coincidence that the hornet and I came to the field at the same time. Then I thought it might be the hornet flew in and out the fence / school fields throughout the day. Again, I stood there to observe the hornet. After a while, it flew away just as the day before.
As I walked, I saw small bees, small butterflies, and other insects every now and then. I looked for the hornet every time I walked past the opening, but it did not fly in again. I did not see any other hornet in the fields.
On the third morning, I decided to take a camera with me. The hornet appeared again just as I walked in. I took a few pictures of the hornet at close range before it flew away.
During the discourses, I took a walk every morning. When the discourses were over, I continued to go for a walk if the weather was good. I brought the camera with me because of the hornet. As far as I could recall, I might have skipped a morning or two due to the rain. Incredibly, the hornet always showed up when I came. It stayed there for a while, and then flew away. Strangely, the hornet never stayed inside the fields where there were many trees and some wild flowers on the grass. After it flew out of the fence, it never came back even if I stood at the same spot waiting for it to return.
For over half a month, I saw the beautiful hornet every time I walked past the fence onto the school fields. The last time I saw the hornet was on July 31.

In 2007, I saw bumblebees on three separate occasions. On the last occasion, I found a big bumblebee clang onto the handle of our screen door when I arrived home. I did not want to scare the bee. I waited for it to fly away. For a long while, the bumblebee stayed there without any movement. I thought it might be dying or too weak to fly. I tried to touch it with a small piece of paper, and it flew away in a swift. During that time, I happened to see BEE license plates all the time. 2007 was the year that we moved to another state. A move that the human I had not foreseen. It was in that state I participated in healing service and facilitated workshops that I had never thought about since I did not regard myself a healer.

Is there any spiritual significance in the sighting of the hornet? Time will tell. All Is Well in the Loving Divine.
Many blessings,
