Spider is our teacher and guide this week. She helps us with intuition and the weaving of our fates, and helps us become aware of our creative energies.
On a personal note, I do have to admit that ever since reading Charlotte’s Web when I was a child, I have been partial to spiders, and to this day I happily share my house with them.
Spider is the master weaver, showing us how to create our dreams and plans. As we are building our plans, Spider reminds us to go in a straight-forward manner, not to take the roundabout way. This is a time to use our creative energies, even in areas where we may fear we won’t be successful.
Even though Spider has eight eyes, she does not see very well; however, the tiny hairs on her legs are extremely sensitive to the smallest movement. This reminds us to trust what we feel, not necessarily what we see.
In Native American culture, such as the Pueblo and Navajo/Dineh, Grandmother Spider created the world. This not only reminds us of our own innate powers of creation and creativity, but also reminds us to go back to the ancient wisdom, our own inner knowing.
Questions to ask when Spider appears:
- Are we taking advantage of opportunities as they arise?
- Is it time to add more creativity to life?
- Are we being too indirect in our communications?
Thank you, Spider, for sharing your wisdom and for being willing to guide us. For this we are grateful.
Harmony,
Janet Roper

What a well written article! I did not know spiders had eight eyes! Don’t you wonder why?! And then to realize they still don’t see very well. Interesting. And love the observation about feeling vs seeing. So crucial in our new energies.
Thank you, Spider, for reminding us to our inner knowing.
Hi Marita,
Thanks for stopping by and leaving your comment. You are so right about the new energies & how we need to take info in.
I just thought of this as I read your comment. Spider has eight eyes, eight legs, eight is the number for infinity. Food for thought there
Harmony,
Janet
