Dream Interpretation

Okay, I've been having dreams that I don't care for too much. They involve spiders. Not just the little creepy crawly kind...the kind that rang from being the size of your hand to the size of your face. I have had four of them over the past couple years...three of them have been this year. I am looking for interpretations of what these dreams could mean since I don't typically dream of spiders. If you would like to help me figure out what they mean then please let me know! I have my own ideas; but, another point of view would be very helpful. If you don't want to know or help then stop reading here.


I am going to list the dreams in order here:


Late 2002



Spider Dream 1


I am in my bedroom. The room is filled with cobwebs. So many that you cannot avoid being covered by a sheet of them with each step. I am in the middle of all the cobwebs. As I look around to find a way out I see numerous spiders…large spiders about the size of my head. The spiders are surrounding me and getting closer. I awaken at this point in fear.



Early 2008


Spider Dream 2


I am on a RV with some people from work on the way down to the coast. The only person I really remember being there is one of the ranch managers; but, I do not remember which one. I think Trey may be there too; but, I can't be sure. We reach a beach house (which is not the one my employer allows us to use) which is understood to be where we are staying. It is in disrepair and in major need of a cleaning. There are huge cobwebs hanging everywhere. It is a wooden structure which looks grey from weathering.


I walk down the hall of the structure behind the ranch manager. A very large black spider, with a body about 3-4 inches long, drops from the ceiling down onto the back of the person in front of me. We quickly knock it off and it runs up the wall behind some old wall slats that have no covering. It looks like a pair of black eyes staring through venetian blinds. It moves in motion with me, watching my every move. It does not seem aggressive towards me. It only watches.


Later I am walking back down the same hall. The spider appears in front of me on the floor. It scurries up to me and proceeds to bite through my tennis shoes onto the top of my toes. There is a lot of blood that flows; but, there is no pain at all. The ranch manager stomps on the spider killing it. I sit down and begin to take off my shoe and then my sock. There is no wound and there is no blood on my foot.


At this point I awaken.



Early 2008


Spider Dream 3


I am on a school bus heading for a theme park. There is only one person I know on the bus. There are hard black spider webs hanging from the top of the entrance to the bus…like the fake spider webs that are sold as Halloween decorations. Each is about the size of my hand with the fingers spread apart. I ask the bus driver about them. He says that the spiders are all dead and there is nothing to worry about.


One of the people on the bus, a very thin blond girl who looks to be in her early 20's, begins to feel ill and asks for the bus to stop. She passes out. The one person I know picks her up and carries her off of the bus and I follow. We can see the theme park in the distance but are not close enough to make it there. We find an area where we can lay the girl down; we appear to be in a cement drainage ditch (just a small one). The girl has two large puncture marks on her arm almost at the bend of her elbow. She is bleeding a bit and her breathing has stopped.


I go back onto the bus to see what I can find that could have caused the injury. What I find are fuzzy hard shells about three inches around in diameter. The bus driver tells me that those are the dead bodies of the spiders. As I look at the thing in my hand it begins to move and a spider starts to climb out of it. I instruct the driver to destroy any and all of these things that are still on the bus.


I run back outside to assist with the girl and find that there is a little medical clinic across the street. I run over and ask if we can get some assistance with the injured girl. I inform them that she has stopped breathing and has a large puncture wound that could possibly be from a spider. They tell me that they have no openings and that she will not be seen today. At that moment the girl is brought into the clinic and we are informed that she is dead. I then turn to the front desk attendant and inform them that they will now have to drop everything in order to care for the body and that had they given the time to attempt to help her that she might possibly still be alive.


I do not recall much more of the dream except that once the girl's body is placed into a body bag she begins to breathe again. It is at this point that I awaken.

Spider Dream 4


I am on a mat in an exercise room on a wooden floor in a deep warrior's stance stretching when, as I look through my feet to the floor behind me, I see a spider about half the size of the palm of my hand drop down from behind me. I do not believe it is descending from me; it is just behind me. It walks over to my foot and there is a web between the wall and my foot…but the web is not connected to my foot. There is, however, one single strand of silk from the spider that is attached to my foot. The spider climbs on its web and there gets stuck. Its legs pull in and out of the web looking like the tentacles of a squid when it darts through the water. The spider's legs do this type of motion forward and back through the web. I am not scared; but, I do want to get away without pulling the spider with me to keep from getting bitten. At the same time I also do not want to break my pose nor what's left of my concentration. It is only when transitioning to a new position that I attempt to shake the spider's silk free from my foot. I picture the spider being pulled out of the web and being slung from side to side as the silk will not break and I begin to panic. I do not know if this happens or not as I awake from the dream and am a bit anxious because I really do not like spiders at all.
