Arachnophobia

Do you remember the dream I had about the large, black spider outside the holy temple on Houston St.? Not a real temple, but the one Michelle and I visited in my dream. I did some research on spiders after I had that dream and read how they represent the connectedness of all people, predators and prey, fate, and motherhood and rebirth, which makes sense. The spider in my dream was repugnant but also fascinating to me. It's limbs were thick and glossy like worms or tentacles and it's head was fat and featureless. Well I had another dream about spiders this weekend. In this dream, the "one" spider gave birth to hundreds or thousands of small spiders of different exact sizes and shapes. All the spiders were on the ceiling of a hallway through which I was walking. I felt a combination of fear and excitement and I quickened my pace.
