For its more general meaning: Dream about a bee
I was traveling abroad for school and I had a cup full of bees that were precious to me. An old friend who was there accidentally dropped a spider on my sleeve, and it broke open to hatch hundreds of babies. Some even under my skin but I was calm. I had no choice but to shake the spiders into the cup of bees and close the lid. I opened it later and everything was dead. I was sad. I had a paranoia of being followed or watched on the trip.
