The spider's medicine is one in which they are eithier trying to get
you to think and act on your goals, dreams and living your joy.
Perhaps that is how the superstition of "bad luck" came about.
The spider teaches you how to take your dreams and weave them into
reality. To teach you that the mind and spirit is so powerful, that
that which you invision can become a reality. Everything begins in the
energetic world before it manifests in the physical world.
From experience I know, that you can make your dreams come true.
Remember that old saying "Whatch what you dream or ask for, you just
might get it?" Same applys to negative dreaming or thoughts. You do
not want them to manifest into reality. I'm sure everyone has
experienced or known someone who's greatest fear came true.
So, if a spider has come into your life, perhaps it was sent to remind
you to pay attention to those negative thoughts and fantasies, or to
perhaps start doing creative visualization to achieve abundance in
your life.
As one who practices shamanism, I pay attention when a spider makes an
appearance.
I will admit, I do not like them crawling on me, but to me it is a
gift to have them do so, that I walk and radiate a non threatening
energy to them so that they can remind me of my thoughts and dreams. I
must honor and respect that. I thank the spider and take paper and put
it outside or off me.
Besides, I'm sure they think we are pretty creepy too...I mean they
are only trying to make a livin' also ;-p
To kill something, with no thought, pause or reaction, no matter how
small, to shaman this is a sign of one who is walking out of balance
and caught up within themselves.
Also, if one knows of the medicine of the spider, and still wishes it
away, well then, that might tell you a bit about whats really going on
within you. A buried feeling of being unworthy of happiness? A fear of
achieving? Get out of your own way, start digging and find out.
Peace and blessings to all,
Eileen Smith

This is really fascinating!
This reminds me of this really HUGE brown and hairy spider that made
it's appearance right next to me out of nowhere. Needless to say
I was really spooked (I'm arachnophobic) and I ran out of my
room looking for something to "gently guide him out" of my room.
I came back a few seconds later and it was *GONE*. Just gone. Looked
under my notice board, under my table, everywhere.. it was just
simply gone.
And anyone who's seen these huge spiders know that the crawl
really sl-o-o-wly. I've assumed that the spider just simply
escaped thru some route I don't know about.. but after
reading your post.. well.. maybe not.
Thanks again for this fascinating tidbit!
Colin.

Me too. I had a HUGE one come and knock on my back door a while back. It was a variety that doesn't live wild in our area and I mean it was BIG!! I set it up in my bathtub. It stayed a while til i arranged with a local petstore for it to come live there in a big tank they have in their front windows (had rescued crocs in it, but they got big enough to be released in a sanctuary) Then within the next two weeks my husband and his boss both came across large turtles of the same variety trying to cross the road in two distant areas of our county (360 some sq. miles). The pet store has a collection now! I think a lot of you would appriciate this place. Instead of cages they keep the animals for sale in open enclosures so people can go in and interact with them, they have a very large staff to moniter the people and make sure they behave. They perform rescuses -never turn away an animal, I mean they knew where to find a little lost crocodiles home, for goodness sakes! Actually learn how to take care of any exoctics that come their way, allow people to put up their "free kittens" signs in their front window...Wether or not you agree with the idea of pet stores or not, you have to agree that this is a far cry from your average strip mall pet store and maybe more of those guys should be following this stores example. Sorry, thought I'd just finish spinning us totally OT! Uh, did I mention the legend of the turtle that ate the world....
I like turtles too. I have two. One is a box turtle and he loves to sit
on my shoulder and look out the window while driving to our vacation
destination and appreciates a nice under the chin massage. The other is
a female red slider who would much rather bite my finger than eat food.
Really, she tries to bite me any chance she gets.
We had a turtle in my family home when I grew up, but it just
disappeared one day! Never saw him again. Same thing happened to my
tadpoles! and the little bird I nursed to health! I think they were
spirited away. (and the spirit was a 5'4", blonde haired lady who told
me they just vanished!)
I know a couple who live out in the desert in Arizona. One species of
turtle there are endangered and the mountain bikers and developers
were not helping the situation.
This sounds so unreal, but, they found money in the walls of this old
house they bought and renovated. It was a large amount of cash. The
best thing of all is these two took that money and bought all the land
surrounding them and made it a preserve for those turtles.
Now thats what I call exceptional human beings :-]
p.s. The turtle also has very wonderful and powerful "medicine" ;-]
They connect their "person" with the gifts, beauty and healing of
Mother Earth.
Peace and Blessings,
Eileen

......and I must borrow those pants when your not wearing them because
I have always asked that same question!!!!
Also, that train of thought is for who discovered what plants tasted
yummy, what one's made you sick, which plant helped foot fungus, etc.
etc.
What prompted that person to see a stalk, rip it out, take a bite and
say "good eating!"or fall to the ground?
Or even more strangely, to apply it to his foot and say "This
helps?"
Just a glimpse into the strange wheels turning in my brain...... :-]

I , too , have wondered that , but my biggest question has always been , who
was it that was out for a nice stroll , came across a random plant and said
"hmmm... I bet if I dried this out , crumbled it up , rolled it in a leaf , lit
it with fire and smoked it , it would feel mighty good !!"

EXACTLY what I meant! Only you said it more eloquently than I could.

I heard somewhere that there's a treatise out by Terrence McKenna stating that it
was the psychotropic plants that gave us our "god consciousness" in the first place
way back when the first guy came across a random mushroom or cactus. I think that
stuff is always there and these things just open the doors or windows and let us see
what's going on on other planes.

The Learning Kingdom's Cool Fact of the Day for July 8, 1998
----------------------------------------------------------------------
What kind of spiders have the best vision?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The best-seeing spiders are the Salticids, or jumping spiders. They
are the ones that seem to be looking back at you!
Jumping spiders have four large eyes in the front of their face, and
four more on top. The eyes in front are highly developed, with
special internal muscles that can move the retina. By moving the
retina, the spider can change its direction of sight without moving
its head, just as humans do when we move our eyes.
There are about 5,000 different kinds of jumping spiders. Most of
them actively hunt their prey on foot, instead of sitting in a web and
waiting. They are the spiders with the largest brains, relative to
body size.
