The Inside
Use extreme care in the making of plans. Be Aware. There will be no lasting blame, if you must bluntly make your point to re-establish order. Pay attention. Do not make a Community hostile. Do not make yourself unwelcome by meddling in other people's business. Pay Attention. The Bees guard the hive. Restrain trouble by stalling, and delaying it. Be Aware. The Bees love order and beauty. Use Wisdom to eliminate disunity. Great Good Fortune! Hear the Bees. Listen to what people say, so that you will know what needs to be done. Pay Attention!
The Outside
Conserve & develop your abilities, when your opportunities are limited. Be aware! Hard work eventually pays off, if you refrain from boasting about your position. Be Aware. Do not become upset by a sudden turn of events. Remain calm. No blame. Realize when there is nothing you can do to improve a situation, and leave quietly. Pay attention. Rely upon your deepest Intuition, when everything is changing. Supreme Good Fortune! Wage war when neccessary, but do not go to extremes. No Blame.
