Lessons from Two Spider Dreams: Overcoming Preconceived Notions to Embrace Reality

I had two dreams about a spider recently. In the first dream, I opened my closet and thought I saw a spider, but when I looked for it, it couldn't be found. Instead I thought I saw its shadow on my shoulder, but after taking a second look, the credibility of it being the shadow of a spider was insufficient.

In the second dream, I woke up from the dream and went to the restroom. On the side of the toilet, I saw a large gray spider, but it didn't seem aggressive. Rather, it looked as though I startled it.

I'm not sure what these dreams were trying to tell me, but I can take away a lesson from them which is that, sometimes, things that appear scary may not actually be scary. Our subconscious programming can cause us to project our fears onto things that are objectively harmless. If we can set our programming aside and embrace what's in front of us, we can begin to see more clearly and face reality head-on.

To truly own our reality, we must get over our preconceived notions about it. These notions can stop us from seeing the big picture and fully experiencing our lives. I'm grateful for these dreams because they've given me valuable insight that I can use to navigate my own experiences.

Grateful for the Challenges: Embracing Difficult Emotions and Personal Growth

I am grateful for July 13th, 2023, which was a Thursday, because that day brought about shifts in my mind. Throughout the day, I experienced tiredness, annoyance, and a series of unfortunate events, such as spilling the juice from some cans of dog food on myself. The unpleasant scent lingered throughout the day, making it a challenging day overall. Despite the difficulties, I am grateful for these experiences because they allow me to sit with and process difficult emotions. I recognize that I am not just happiness; I am also boredom, anger, sadness, disappointment, and annoyance. All of these emotions are part of who I am, and it is important to acknowledge and accept them. By sitting in these emotions and exercising gratitude, I gain a broader perspective of myself and my experiences. I can use these moments as opportunities to learn and grow, and hone my coping skills for when similar situations arise in the future.

Embracing Gratitude, Rest, and Receptiveness in Life's Design

I am grateful for the opportunity to stay home and rest, even though I understand the importance of working to earn money. Rest is a fundamental aspect that I always need to take into consideration. I appreciate the alignment of the universe in my favor, recognizing that there are no coincidences or accidents—everything happens for a reason. It's essential for me to be aware of the need to work consciously, despite the financial limitations that may arise from not being able to work. I trust that this is all part of a greater plan, as there are no lasting consequences. I wholeheartedly embrace this understanding. It reminds me of Tyler Henry, who receives messages from the deceased while in a state of receptiveness. Similarly, I strive to be open to receiving everything that comes my way or the experiences I encounter because I know it allows me to embrace life more fully. It creates a supportive space for me to explore and expand my potential.

Grateful for the Path of Personal Growth: Embracing Self-Value and Empowerment

I am grateful for the progress I am making in my personal growth. It is a path that is set for me, and I am thankful for the challenges that come my way because they help me to grow and nurture my soul. In the past, I defined myself a lot contingent on the value that others gave me, and some of my worth was contingent on how much money I had in which I still struggle with sometimes. Although, my self-worth has evolved drastically in other ways. However, I forgive myself for defining my value based on how others perceive me, and I recognize that I must find value within myself rather than seeking validation from others. Money does not define my worth as a person. Instead, it is my character, integrity, and values that truly matter and will live on forever. I am grateful for the teachings, mentorship, and friendship of the Swaruunians , as well as Za'el and Arien . They have helped me to understand the importance of personal development and the power of ideas. I forgive m...
