Dreaming of spiders...

| 2 Comments
Small-White-Common-House-Spider-4.Jpg I've been dreaming of spiders lately... not a lot, but often enough to make me wonder why...
 
Normally, I never remember my dreams at all, so the fact that I have been recently makes me wonder in and of itself...
 
I'm never afraid of them, and I never kill them (though once one transformed itself into a floating frog's head of doom, which I had to swat aside...)
 
They are often light or white colored...
 
In today's dream, I was leaving work and I walked through a door and set down my bag to close the door and when I looked there was a huge spider on it... I nudged the bag and the spider crawled across it and down.  As it crawled off the bag, it contorted itself into a shape that resembled a small 4 legged mammal... And I got the feeling it didn't want to be recognized as a spider...
 
Strange... the 4 legged part...
 
So I did a Google search on 'dreams spider'...
 
Well... I am relieved to know that I am either in for some great good luck, money, or creativity...
 
OR
 
I am frightened, running into frustrations at work or using my feminine wiles to enstare some poor unsuspecting man...

HAHAHA!!
 
I can't believe how many OPPOSING interpretations there were...
 
All on one site even...
 
I guess I can just believe what I WANT to believe...
 
Oh WAIT... I do that already

When I look at you...


Even my edges are sharp and bright...

What I see reflected back to me is beautiful... intelligent... unstoppable... Even when all I see is darkness you still see light...

You point out all my dark places too, so I know you're not just blind... but instead of being frightened you revel in them... and so I can too...

I can drag you into the deepest chasms and never fear that you will finally see too much..

Some roots go deep... and yours go all the way to the center of the universe...

I'll never be as glorious as you think I am, but I've been able to find my way by following the light in your eyes...

And then there's fall...

And spending the height of summer just breathing it in does nothing to delay autumn's gloomy arrival...
 
Sigh...

It's amazing how quickly the weather disintegrates around here...

It's like the door closes on summer and we are in a full blown hurry to get on with the business of fall...

And its rain...

And gloom...

And chill...

And by the time the sun sees fit to show itself again, it will be to illuminate the crispness of the air and the litter of summer falling to the ground...
