Spider

Spiders frequently symbolize "creepy people" who would like to "trap us in their webs." Is someone "bugging" you?

Spiders also are common images during confusional arousals from deep, non-dreaming sleep. Sleepers may awaken in dark rooms surrounded by spiders-on the ceiling, in and on top of their beds. Because these static images occur during a partial arousal from deep sleep, coming to a full awakening, where the images no longer are seen, may require several minutes. Sleepers who experience frequent confusional arousals are advised to sleep with night lights left on in their bedrooms-so they may quickly orient themselves during arousals from deep sleep.
