This odd little creature is actually a personal favorite of mine. Its odd metallic looking body reminds of a pimped out car from a superhero cartoon and the way they shimmer is just very cool. But what exactly do mean spiritually and symbolically? Well, here is the spiritual meaning of Japanese beetles.
What is the spiritual meaning of Japanese beetles?
Japanese beetles are spiritually associated with the concept of consumption. As an insect, Japanese beetles can eat just about anything and spiritually they can represent consumption of spiritual energy. This can be thought of as a spiritual growth and progress, consuming spiritual energy from the environment and transforming it into personal spiritual growth.
Their voracious appetite can be seen in two way. On the one hand, it represents spiritual growth and progress. On the other hand, it can represent spiritual gluttony and spiritual greed. Greed can be destructive and lead to spiritual stagnation. If we are too greedy or gluttonous, spiritual growth can be difficult to achieve and maintain.
