St. Gobnait; The Bee Enchantress

St. Gobnait was a holy woman of Ireland who had a special relationship with bees. So much so that she is the patron of bees and beekeepers. But it wasn’t only honey and wax she received in return for her care of her diminutive friends. Legend says that she once drove away a marauding band of cattle raiders by siccing her bees on them.

Bees, by the way, have a particular significance in Celtic lore as symbols of the soul, so St. Gobnait’s closeness to these busy creatures also has a spiritual significance.
