I am drawn to what you could call spiritual things. I believe in energies flowing around you that can tell you about what’s happening to you and give some advice for the future.
It’s no wonder I enjoy so much the posts about spirit animals by my dear friend Rhapsody Bohéme. Thanks to her, I started paying attention and was visited by my first animal: a spider!
As I explained in my post about the Tarot reading I had done for me, it can’t tell you a black and white future but it’s great guidance on how to act to get the best out of it.
I am not scared of spiders so I was not frightened when I found one leisurely walking on my leg, while I was reading on the swing in my garden. Usually there are loads of them around at this time of year but they have been missing.
My visitor was not big but neither was tiny. I stopped reading and observed her. She walked a little (still on my leg), stopped and adopted a defensive position by raising her front legs and, after checking everything was fine, continued walking. She did this three times until she reached the floor and went away.
I found her behaviour most unusual and searched for ‘spider spirit animal’ straight away. Bingo! It was there!
She is very feminine (hence the she) and related to creativity. She reminds you to not ignore your ideas and dreams and to find balance between past and future. Most of all, she says you weave your own web in life, something I deeply believe in.
Like my tarot reader says, I’ll give you the weather forecast. It’s up to you if you take an umbrella.
Of course I checked with Rhapsody if I had interpreted it correctly. Yes!
Today, at work, I was visited by another spider. A little one, this time. She started from the right corner of my desk, walking purposely towards the left. I had loads of parts, tools and papers all over, but she stayed on her path. There were easier routes but she didn’t want them. I admired her as she walked over every obstacle, never wavering. When she reached the left side, she disappeared down somewhere.
If that’s not a message, I don’t know what is.
Great post!

Awe this warms my heart in so many ways my beautiful friend but what is closest to my heart and means the most is that you have started to notice these gentle guidances. Like you said, nothing is black and white but it can shed light and help us understand. It can reassure our journey or guide us onto the path we need to travel. I’m so proud of you as you are claiming your life back through the darkness and are raising your awareness in the process of it. Hugs 💙xo

Thank you for introducing me to this new world. It all started to me as a young girl, after I read The Alchemist, by Paulo Coelho. The concept of a personal legend stayed with me, forgotten for a while, but always there. I reminded myself of this sentence in the book: “when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.” It is powerful. The universe will help you as long as you work to get there. I find it fascinating!

I heard of this sentence and always believed in it as well. And I’m too are fascinated and believe much has to do with our outlook and the willingness to see and believe vs. dismissing the signs.

It became THE sentence of that book.
I have just been visited by another spider. A tiny and feisty one this time. They seem to get smaller and stronger every time.
I am convinced they come just to ask me for patience now. I’ve been running low on it 😬😬😬. 🕷️🕷️🕷️

Wow definitely a sign and maybe a message all together. Them getting smaller could resemble you. Smaller in a way of being without barely husband and metaphorical what started as you as a team, big and together is now reduced to only you. Smaller then before but feistier and stronger then ever. 😉👍🏼

I sure hope so! I took a picture of the little thing walking on me this time. When I got her carefully off me, it gave an enormous jump over me. No idea where she went! Can I jump that high and far? That’s the dream…

You’re already jumping my friend and soon you will see that there is no limit as to how high. Xo
