Hornet in Slavic mythology
The hornet resembles a wasp in appearance, but is larger than it.
A large hornet often causes fear in nervous people. You really should be afraid of him, if only because of the painful bites that pose a real danger. The hornet's venom is many times stronger than that of a wasp, so anaphylactic shock is guaranteed for small children and adults with allergies. But this is the data of naturalists. What do esotericists say?
Inside the apartment
The mighty hornet was so respected by our ancestors that it even received a special place in the Slavic totem horoscope. This insect symbolizes activity, and it is so vigorous that at times it is harmful. Did the Hornet honor you with his presence? Think about it, is it time to slow down? Maybe you have become too active over an insignificant trifle and are starting to seriously annoy those around you?
On the other hand, our ancestors saw in this insect a stubborn and strong warrior who always finishes the job he started. Have you recently given up on your plans, deciding that they would never come true? In this case, the striped guest reproaches: you gave up too early and spread out on the sofa. Take action! Were there no plans? Then create them immediately. Decide what you want to change in your life, set a goal and start implementing it. The Hornet does not like inactive people.
At the window glass
Is the hornet hitting the window? Or this is a mystical sign and the insect is eager to communicate approximately the same thing as inside the apartment. Or it's going to rain. Get out your umbrella!
Wasp Stings: Treatment, Allergic Reactions, Home Remedies and Images
What types of wasp stings?
There are about 20,000 species of wasps, but not all of them sting people. (2) Like bees, only female wasps have a stinger. And, unlike bees, wasps do not lose their stings. This means that the same wasp can sting several times. (3)
Four common types of stinging wasps include:
Hornet
Buddy Mays/Alamy
Bald-faced hornets are black and white and are about three-quarters of an inch long. They are known to be particularly aggressive in defending their distinctive round paper nests, which often hang from trees.
The European hornet is larger, measuring about 1 inch in length. (1) You can recognize the European hornet by its reddish-brown head and legs and yellow-black striped abdomen (rear). They nest in the ground, in tree hollows and in spaces inside walls. (1) They are found in Asia, Europe, Africa and North America. (4)
2.Yellow Jacket

Throw an outdoor barbecue and you're likely to have a few of these unwanted visitors. Yellow jackets are sometimes confused with hornets and bees, but are easily identified by their black and yellow striped abdomens and short legs. These wasps are extremely aggressive and bite more often than other wasp species. (1.3)
Yellow jackets are active from spring to late summer, and you can find them all over the world. If you live in the southeastern United States, you can see them in large numbers. (3)
Paper wasp

These wasps can be found throughout the United States, usually flying around structures. Paper wasps range from one and a half to one inch in length and are identified by their reddish-brown or black body and long legs that hang down when they fly. (5)
Some paper wasps have yellow rings around their abdomens, making them look like yellow jackets. All paper wasps are active in the spring, summer and fall. (3.5)
Cicada Killer Wasp

It is one of the largest wasp species in North America—growing up to 1.5 inches—and is found throughout the United States. You can tell these wasps apart from other wasps by their predominantly black abdomen with whitish markings. (1)
Cicada killer wasps feed on cicadas, another fairly large insect. They rarely sting people, but will if they feel threatened.(6)

A wasp flew into the omen's house
There are a lot of superstitions about wasps, because this insect is not at all rare.
In the past, it was believed that the first wasp seen in the new year must be killed, this brings good luck. According to some sources, one will be lucky for the entire year, while according to others, this is only a one-time gain of luck. Nowadays, few people adhere to this belief. If a wasp flew into the house, this is a sign of exposure. Moreover, it is unknown whether you will be exposed or whether your sister will find out what one of your friends is up to. You should take a closer look at your surroundings, and also more carefully cover up the evidence of your misdeeds.
It is believed that this insect pesters and tries to bite only those who live righteously; it rarely touches sinners. A wasp sting is also a warning, but about deception or danger that comes from a person. He may have heard that you need to protect yourself from jealousy - do not be jealous yourself and do not give any reason to your loved one. Perhaps someone is jealous of you. Whatever you say, if you are planning to have a baby, a wasp sting is a good sign for pregnancy.
Despite the fact that signs about wasps generally mean a lot of warning, you should not be alarmed if a nest of them appears near your window or in the attic. This portends happiness and good luck in business. Unless there are a lot of wasps flying around in the summer, that means the winter will be cold.
Pair of dragonflies
A pair of dragonflies is a sign of love, without a doubt!
One dragonfly is good, but two are even better. Meeting a “sweet couple,” especially at the moment when they are mating, portends great success on the love front.
- If you have already found a legitimate life partner, expect flowers, declarations of love and expressions of tenderness from him. And don’t let us down, show your spouse what real care and affection are!
- If you are not going to formalize your relationship with your life partner, the sign means that such an opportunity should present itself soon.
- If you are still walking through life in proud but disgusted loneliness, look around more carefully. The prince is somewhere nearby and it’s easy to find him, the main thing is not to miss his appearance.

Indicator bee flew into the house
If a bee has flown into the house, this is a good sign; it is especially good to find it in the basement or cellar. She portends good luck and happiness to all residents, but if she does not stay in the room for too long, she will sing for a long time and will not be killed by you. In order for a good forecast to come true, the bee should carefully, without giving it the opportunity to injure you, take the insect and send it back to where it came from.
In some countries they believe that if bees fly in the direction that a fisherman is walking, this means a good catch. If several bees fly into your house, the omen remains good. Sympathy promises a young couple the birth of a child, an older couple a wedding for one of their children, and for everyone else pleasant surprises and meetings that you have long been expecting, as well as good luck in your personal life. Young girls will be overjoyed if two bees fly to them, because this signifies the appearance of an interesting young man.
Yes, not all nations considered the arrival of bees a good sign. To put it roughly, this was a very bad omen for the Romans. For example, the decisive success of Pompey’s army happened after a whole swarm of these insects landed on a sacred relic. In the modern world, according to rumors, the only bad omen is a bee sting. If she flew into your house and bit someone, then there will soon be a noisy quarrel in the house. It is believed that they only sting sinners, and do not touch righteous people.
Some believe that seeing bees on a dry tree, branch or wooden fence is a sign of death in a family that lives in a yard in which bees behave this way.
Beliefs about bees
Humanity has long appreciated the taste and beneficial properties of honey. This led to the active development of private and industrial beekeeping. Our ancestors always carefully observed these insects, as a result, many superstitions and superstitions about bees arose. The most famous:
- Only a good person whose thoughts are pure can work with bees.
- You can’t eat near the hives - the insects will get sick.
- If bees settle in the house of an unmarried girl, the omen promises her long loneliness.
- If a bee flies around a person several times and does not sting, it means that he should expect good news in the coming days.
- Lightning never strikes bee houses.
Many apiary owners are sure that the hive must be consecrated before placing a swarm there. Then the insects will be healthy and the honey harvest will be good. If the owner of the apiary died, when his body was removed, the hives were turned with their entrances in the other direction so that the bees would not “see” the dead beekeeper. It was believed that otherwise they would leave their houses forever.
Other signs about insects
In ancient times, striped workers were used to predict the weather. A sign of a lot of wasps indicates the onset of a protracted period of cold weather, a harsh winter. A small amount predicts a warm winter with little snow.
If an insect gets into a glass, then depending on its contents, the signs are interpreted as follows:
- wine signifies success with the opposite sex;
- tea promises the visit of a pleasant guest;
- water indicates unexpected financial losses.
If a buzzing guest gets tangled in her hair, be careful, they want to involve you in a dubious matter.
Made a nest
If you find a wasp's nest in the house, you are under the reliable protection of higher powers. Signs speak of the beneficial influence of these insects on the energy background of the home.
- If wasps have built a nest above the front door, the family will expect an improvement in their financial situation, prosperity, and well-being.
- A nest in the underground promises harmony in relationships, mutual understanding, peace and tranquility.
Left the nest
If the striped inhabitants decide to leave their place of residence, signs predict negative changes in life:
- the beginning of a black streak, a period of lack of money;
- loss of physical and moral strength;
- bad news, conflict situations within the family, quarrels;
- troubles at work, decreased performance, lack of mutual understanding with management and the team;
- illness of one of the inhabitants of the house.
In general, signs about wasps promise good events. Even if their appearance indicates trouble, this is a good reason to think about your further actions.
Do not ignore the messages of fate, on the contrary, be careful and circumspect in everything
How to dispel a negative interpretation
In various cultures, the wasp is a harbinger of news and changes in a person’s destiny. Positive interpretations are perceived with positivity and good emotions, while negative interpretations want to be destroyed as quickly as possible, reduce the flow of bad energy, and prevent changes that will bring misfortune to a person.
To neutralize the power of a bad omen and a negative interpretation of what happened, you should do some simple rituals: light a candle and throw a small pinch of salt into the fire. It is believed that negative information will burn in fire and dissolve like grains of salt.
Still have questions or have something to add? Then write to us about it in the comments, this will make the material more useful, complete and accurate.
A wasp landed on a man
The significant event itself is interpreted in a positive way. If a wasp lands on a person, but does not bite him, it means that he will succeed in any endeavor. However, it is worth considering all the details of the incident.
- A wasp sat on your hand - it’s worth reconsidering your views on life. Try to prioritize based on recent circumstances. You have to find out a secret that your loved ones hid from you. Don't panic, accept the truth with your head held high.
- A wasp landed on the shoulder - a warning of danger. Do not take risky actions, do not invest money in dubious projects.
- If a wasp lands on your head, big changes await you. There are changes ahead that will turn your life upside down.
- The winged guest landed on her foot - get ready for the trip. The sign promises a business trip, relocation or travel.
Why does a wasp bite?
Signs speak of deception. Someone has prepared an insidious plan for you and is ready to “stab you in the back” at the wrong moment.
- If a wasp stings a girl, it means that she is very dependent on her companion. A partner's jealousy literally poisons their relationship.
- A wasp bit a man - he should reconsider his jealous attitude towards his lady love.
- For a pregnant woman, signs indicate health problems.
If a wasp has bitten a finger or other part of the hand, you will receive cash from an unexpected source. The larger and more painful the bite site, the more money you will receive. However, the opposite effect is also possible if the stung area causes too much discomfort. A wasp has bitten you in the leg - big changes are on the doorstep, in your head - it’s time to radically change your lifestyle.
What to expect if you kill a wasp
A dead wasp promises good luck. However, you should not kill all the buzzing creatures that annoy you. It is enough to do this once, in early spring. If you believe it, it will attract prosperity, luck, and love for the entire next year. Our ancestors did not intentionally kill in order to avoid possible troubles.

Mikhail Gurkov14
The safest, fastest and most humane way to shoo away an uninvited bumblebee (bee, wasp, fly, beetle...) is to arm yourself with a jar/glass and a sheet of cardboard.
The insect is carefully covered with a jar, after which a sheet of cardboard should be inserted under its neck. All manipulations are carried out carefully and slowly, so as not to press the paw there or otherwise provoke aggression.
Now you can go out onto the balcony or go to an open window and, turning the neck of the jar away from you towards light and freedom, remove the sheet of cardboard. Since the insect still does not understand what is actually happening (they don’t have a very strong association, and you didn’t seem to have taken any special actions against it), it will almost immediately fly out of the jar and quickly disappear from your field of vision. The bumblebee is free, you are safe, everyone is alive and no one has been bitten.
The Seagull Who Doesn't Care288
Why does the cuckoo throw its children into other people's nests?
Guest1
It is known that she lays up to 15 eggs over the summer with an interval of several days. If she raised her chicks by herself or with a male, then they would not be able to feed the chicks (too much). Also, several chicks of different ages would immediately live in one nest, namely: “the oldest is already screaming with all his might, and the youngest has not even hatched yet.” In this case, it becomes necessary to simultaneously incubate the eggs and feed the offspring. The cuckoo simply wouldn’t have time to do all this. It is because of this that the cuckoo throws its children into other people’s nests.KARINA SHARAPOVA2
Should I get rid of wasp nests?
If they don't bother? Or is this a ticking time bomb?
Bee2
I will say from my experience, including childhood, that wasps do not need you at all, neither from the point of view of prey, nor from the point of view of defense from you as an enemy, unless, of course, you wave your arms next to their home.
Humans and wasps can coexist side by side quite calmly. Only if this is an adult, the child cannot calmly watch as a wasp just sat on his shoulder to rest or saw bright clothes. Leave her alone, she will fly away on her own.
Of course, you shouldn’t purposefully destroy wasp nests, just because wasps are supposedly born only to bite us. This is the same link in the biological chain as you and I, and also creatures of God. There is no need to destroy every nest in a kilometer area. If the insects are really insolent, simply dilute a teaspoon of boric acid in a glass of sweet syrup (you can use a tablespoon of jam or honey in a glass of warm water) and place it in a visible place for them, from where the smell of the syrup can be carried by the wind. In a week, there will be no wasps near your home, and you won’t have to look for a nest or deal with execution.

There are bedbugs
In Medieval Europe, bedbugs were a common occurrence, and this is not surprising, because in conditions of prevailing unsanitary conditions, not only insects appeared in houses, but also life-threatening diseases and infections. However, in a clean house, oddly enough, bedbugs also take up residence. Folk omens describe the appearance of bugs in a home extremely negatively, calling them harbingers of misfortune.
Parasites are perceived by people as extremely unpleasant jumping insects. Over many years of tracking the places of their appearance, people have formed certain opinions, reflected in signs:
- Bedbugs come to the house where a lot of negativity has accumulated and a dangerous conflict is brewing, which can destroy the family and bring a lot of misfortune and trouble to its members.
- Unsanitary conditions
- Beetles appear where children leave their parents' home in conflict.
- If a family is facing complete poverty or disease, bedbugs portend trouble.
- Magic sent by enemies can also negatively affect the family's fortunes.
- Bedbugs settle where there is fornication in the house.
IMPORTANT. A person who does not sleep at night and is afraid of magic, and without spells can lead himself into a dark corner: thinking about damage, the brain becomes tense day and night, in fact, because of this, people have nightmares, nerves are shaken, and then diseases of the central nervous system occur .
Folk signs about wasps
The most predictive insect from the “striped company” is, of course, the wasp. Perhaps because in the summer there is literally nowhere to escape from these ubiquitous creatures. Neither the bumblebee nor the hornet received such attention, while they don’t predict anything from wasps...
If you fly into your home
Despite its dangerous sting, harmful nature and lack of obvious benefit (you won’t get honey from a wasp), an insect visiting a house is most often considered a good sign.
To the apartment
- The sign says: the wasp tries not to appear in the home of bad people. We found a striped guest in one of the rooms - rejoice! Apparently, you are a really good person, especially if you don’t slam her, but carefully send her away.
- One wasp hovering over a man brings him good news. If the insect does not single out anyone from the family, but simply flies around the house, the news will be pleasant for everyone.
- If a wasp, or better yet several at once, flies into an apartment, good luck awaits its inhabitants.
After meeting a wasp, it is not recommended to be cunning - you will get caught
And only one version of the sign is negative. Sometimes the wasp is considered a symbol of impending exposure: either you yourself will be caught in a lie, or you will learn the unpleasant truth about one of your relatives. If lately you have been haunted by the temptation to do something not quite beautiful, the wasp is another reason to abandon this idea and act with strictly honest methods.
To the balcony or loggia
If one wasp is circling on the balcony, its appearance means about the same thing: good news and good luck. However, the signs make a small caveat:
- If a wasp appears on the balcony of an unmarried girl, she will soon find a life partner. Moreover, this will not be an ordinary pleasant, but fleeting romance. The matter will probably end in a wedding.
- A wasp visiting a married woman brings news of an imminent addition to the family.
- If the striped guest came with several girlfriends, money should follow them into the house. At least the signs insist on this.
To the attic
If you find a wasp in your attic or roof, trust that everything you do now is destined to succeed. Try not to lose this spirit, and then success will really come. Even if the insect was just looking for a place to nest on your roof.
To the garden or to the garden
A wasp in the garden is a more than natural phenomenon. While she is minding her own business and not paying attention to you, the winged soothsayer does not promise changes in life. But if there are unusually many insects in your area, either there is a wasp nest nearby, or a harsh winter is coming. According to observations of the folk calendar, a large number of wasps appear before serious cold weather.
If stung
Wasp stings are painful, but not always bad.
Have you been attacked by a striped aggressor? First of all, monitor your feelings. Increased sensitivity to insect bites is common, and you don’t need to look to superstitions to understand that such a sign will not end well for an allergy sufferer. But if you have nothing to fear other than painful sensations, you can try telling your fortune.
How to interpret an insect bite for a man and a woman
- According to one version, the wasp warns the man: it’s time to calm down his jealousy! Don't offend your friend with empty suspicions, or you may lose her.
- According to another, the same event speaks of the danger of being deceived.
- According to the third, it indicates the envy that someone feels towards the stung.
- In female versions of predictions, the wasp is often associated with children, and therefore its bite is considered a harbinger of pregnancy. If both spouses suffer from winged predictors, the reliability of the sign doubles. Go to the pharmacy immediately for a test! And get some ointment for bites at the same time.
In different parts of Russia, signs often change their “indications”. Sometimes a wasp predicts deception, jealousy and other people's envy for a woman, so look at the circumstances. By the way, just as a wasp does not like to settle in the home of a bad person, she disdains to bite him
So attention from an insect is considered confirmation of your high moral qualities
In the old days, it was believed that the first wasp seen in the spring should be swatted, and then good luck would remain with the person for a whole year. A dubious undertaking. Don’t forget: striped insects bring prosperity and good news to the house, and only in some cases foreshadow bad things. It is doubtful that the relatives of the killed wasp would undertake to intercede for a person before higher powers.
May beetle flew in during break omen
Despite the fact that there are many good omens about beetles, if a cockchafer flew into a window, it would not be the most pleasant omen. Sympathy promises you trouble and bad luck
This sign has a warning concept and warns against careless behavior, because any negative meaning can be prevented if you don’t get into trouble on purpose
It’s especially bad if the beetle starts to rush and fly around the house. True, some people believe that beetles fly into human habitation only in front of a stream in order to find shelter from bad weather, and there is no bad sign in this. And if a beetle crosses your path, it means prosperity awaits you, and the larger the insect, the better.
It is forbidden to kill cockchafers; if one of them has flown into your home, then no matter how angry you are with it because of the bad omen, it should be sent out into the street safe and sound. Intentional killing of such a beetle threatens you or your relative with illness, which can even be fatal. Accidental a also guarantees illness, but after it you will recover.
If only a cockchafer crawls along the window from the outside, being outside the house, this is a good omen, good luck. Finding a dead insect while cleaning means the departure of one of the family members, and for a long time. But don’t rush to get upset, this is not at all a sign of divorce, but rather the beginning of an independent life for your children, the army, or a change of job.
In general, the vast majority of such signs about insects are related to the weather, because knowledge of its changes was vitally necessary for our ancestors. However, it is possible to touch the well of luck when you correctly interpret and use the sign.
