So last night I dreamt I was holding a Goliath Bird Eating Spider in the palm of my right hand. I was scared at first, since they are the hugest spiders in the world. I attempted to suppress my fear, and he began speaking with me, telling me it was alright. We talked for hours it seemed. There was sadness, laughter, and happiness. At one point, he outstretched his legs parallel with my fingers, the most vivid part of the whole dream.

My friend told me that to have a spider in your dream represents life. It can mean many things however, for the spider and its web can be taken in lots of forms. Really, it's up to the dreamer and his or her present state, for though we are the same, not all of us are yet aware of our platonic selves.

She explained it quite perfectly. I have never had a dream interpreted so literally, and have it seen 100% clearly.

I was holding my life in my hands. I haven't been completely ok with that, and after being comforted by my higher self, I should be able to fully embrace life at this point. I can now say I am holding hands with life. MY life, that is.
