Another informative post from The Godyssey Podcast. Brought to mind the Melissae, Bee Priestesses of ancient Greece. Taking me down another rabbit hole now.
Bees are sacred to Apollo, and honey has been offered to the gods for three thousand years, since the days of Mycenae. The Oracle at Delphi was offered honey and said to be a Bee, bringing prophecy down from Apollo; apiaries were connected to the god as well. #FairyTaleTuesday
