I have a lot of questions, don't I? according to my astrology chart, I have 'questions for every answer'. Anyway..This is starting to creep me out. It's been happening for years. I used to hallucinate spiders.. like a tarantula crawling over my bedsheets and then underneath (which would leave me to spend the next fifteen minutes searching for a tarantula that wasn't there in the first place). I don't know how many years its been going on, but I always seem to find spiders around me. I have never minded, as long as they kept their distance. Within the past couple months, besides taking lodging in my room, they would drop down in front of my face while I was on the computer. Multiple times. I'd call them 'spider assassins' and threaten them with rolled up newspaper. ((I don't hurt them unless if they spook me a lot)).
Last night, I felt a spider crawl across my arm, and I couldn't find it. I wasn't sure if I'd hallucin'ed it or not. Today, there was a spider in my hair. Which ended up dying when I swiped it away. I didn't even think I'd hit it hard. Is there any certain reasons spiders like me? I can put up with them, but I don't like them very much. IP: Logged |

I do not have an answer but I can relate somewhat. Spiders seem to do the same thing, but I never hallucinated. Although I get bit alot, I never see the spider who bites me. Had fever from bites plenty of time. I know your thinking "if she doesnt see the spider how does she know it was a spider bit?" I just know.... they're out to get me!!!  IP: Logged |

Hi endaphia, not spiders for me, but snakes. I sense them and I always k-now they`re there. I am teased a lot and am told "only you" would claim to feel a snake and actually have it there. I have an antenna for them and I seem to draw them to my area. I don`t like them,I fear them, so I don`t understand why they seem to be drawn to me.  I always figured there was a message in it for me, but to date, I`ve not stuck around long enough to receive it  juniperb  IP: Logged |

Thanks, both of you  makes me feel a little better.Just asked someone in real life, and basically got silence as an answer. I'm smart enough not to ask my doctor this question. My doctor is retiring uber-soon.. which is good for me. We don't get along well. Anyone who treats a virgo to layman's terms gets on that virgo's nerves. :P Or, most other people for that matter, I'd guess. We just don't get on well because she never believes me. And I'm right 80% of the time IP: Logged |

Here's a bit of trivia: if a person is delusional, or quitting booze or drugs cold turkey, they may well experience the phenomenon of feeling bugs crawling over their skin -- when no bugs are there. This is called Delusory Parasitosis. I'm not suggesting anyone posting has this, but it's interesting how the human mind can get involved with insect fears!I had a similar episode with black garden beetles a few years ago, when I slept in a basement room. It got so that I worried one might crawl across my cheek in the dark. Well finally one night that happened exactly, but never again. I believe that however my dread got started, that I focused on it and that focus then attracted the very creature I dreaded. I wonder if insects are more likely to respond to this kind of visualization and summoning than other orders of creatures. Good thing I'm not afraid of bears. cheers,

I used to have the same issue. When I was little I would wake up screaming in the middle of the night because I thought there were tarantulas in my bed. I used to be quite terrified of them. I have been working abit with them in meditation in an attempt to get over this fear and I seem to have had some success. They still make me incredibly nervous but it's getting less and less. I think that deep seated fears of creatures are symbolic of deeper underlying psychological fears. Perhaps looking into the symbolic meaning of spiders would help, as our subconcious speaks in symbols..IP: Logged |
