Quinquatrus: Feast of Minerva (Lupine Honeybees)
Gardeners know how perennials grow stronger with each passing year. The Lupine is a fine example of this quality, and it exudes a vigorous energy. The earth elemental proclaims its love of life through this plant. This plant is most active in the late morning, and this is the best time to observe the Lupine. You just may see its radiant aura.
So, is it the sweet nectar or the vibrant energy of this plant that attracts the honey bees? Perhaps the nectar and the bees are one with the vibrant energy, which is an expression and an emanation of the great cosmic dance.
