What Does Bee Mean in Coffee Reading?
A bee in a coffee reading means industrious work in company. Effort within a group is about to pay.
The bee works within an order, which is why it means collective effort rather than solitary striving.
It is also a sign of sweetness earned: where there are bees there is honey — the reward that follows the labour.
