Surviving the Sting with Wasp Medicine ~
Self-care and Personal Growth through Gifts from the Rainforest:
5. The Wasp knows not to take rejection personally. Her advice is to use the sting of unpleasant events as a motivator to keep moving and on track.
Are you tapping into a “hive mind” that’s poisoning you?
Do you need to change your destination or the route you’re taking?
What will help you take better care of yourself?
Healing Action: Stop tapping into negative energies and experiences. Pull back from destructive influences. Learn from difficult circumstances and move on.
Surviving the Sting
Disappointment comes in many forms.
The things that others do or say often sting,
but the wasp knows that it’s nothing personal.
Do not allow yourself to become overwhelmed
or sensitive when you are repelled.
It’s not important that everybody likes you.
It’s not even possible.
Your time is better spent looking for
another route to your destination.
The wasp does not intend any harm;
she simply follows her instincts.
If she has stung you today, count yourself blessed,
because she has saved you much time
and trouble in the long run.
You could be about to step
into the middle of a hornet’s nest.
Nurse your wounds and move on.

Further Exploration into Wasp Medicine:
You haven’t been paying attention to subtle messages telling you that you’re off track. Perhaps you’re so busy being right and trying to make things work that you’re missing out on important information and opportunities. Your pride may say, “But – this is the way things are supposed to work!” In this case, that is not so.
Gaze softly into the Circle and ask: “Have I learned what I needed to learn from this situation yet? Why am I still here? Am I overwhelmed or stepping into a mess of trouble without taking adequate precautions?” If there’s a problem, let Wasp direct you to a safer, wiser approach:
- You are being warned to pull your energy back from what you’re planning. Something’s not right and needs to be re-evaluated. Are you trying to force something?
- Look at your situation from a distance. Objectivity is what’s being called for now. Allow your Soul to change the angle of how you’re looking at this so you can see what’s missing.
- Notice the ways that you aren’t protecting yourself. Are you too open to destructive energies? Do you need a break from technology?
- Follow the buzz and be led to where the problem lies. Knowing where to look makes it easier.
Be more flexible and creative in accomplishing your goals. If you look to your left – the road less traveled – you could open up to inspiration and wonderful new paths. By making this small adjustment, the bounty of the Universe can make its way to you.
Pay attention to your dreams and insights because they’re particularly rich at this time. If you’re willing to be innovative, a brilliant idea is waiting for you to grasp it and use to start something entirely new!
Finally, thank those who kept irritating you. Even though it wasn’t much fun, they were helping you on your way.
