Are spiders in the home considered good luck?

The Spider is an ancient symbol of mystery, power and growth.

We take our first lesson from the ancient symbol of the Spider by contemplating its web.

Just as the Spider weaves a web, so too must we weave our own lives. The Spider symbol meaning here serves as a reminder that our choices construct our lives. When the Spider appears to us, it is a message to be mindful of the choices we are making – and ask ourselves:

* How are my choices affecting my life?

* How can my choices improve my life?

* How are my choices affecting others in my life?

Not only do Spiders and their webs draw attention to our life choices, they also give us an overview of how we can manipulate our thinking in order to construct the life we wish to live.

Spiders do this by calling our awareness to the amazing construction of their webs. Fully functional, practical, and ingenious in design – Spider webs serve as homes, food storage, egg incubators – seemingly limitless in their functionality.

When we consider this ingenious diversity, we can also consider the web-like construct of our own lives. How are we designing the most effective life?

When we see our decisions, choices and actions as far-reaching, effective tools in life – we can see how we weave a web that can either serve us or enslave us. The Spider symbol meaning beckons us to be mindful of our behaviors – be smart about the life we weave for ourselves.

We can derive more Spider symbol meaning when we consider certain subtle characteristics that represent ancient symbols of infinity.

The infinity symbol meanings occur when we consider most Spiders have eight eyes and all have eight legs. The number eight is also a symbol of infinity or lemniscate (an eight turned on its side). Also, the vibrational frequency indicates the meaning of number eight involves cycles, passage of time, and evolution.

Further Spider symbol meaning:

* Cunning

* Progressive

* Female

* Cyclical

* Rebirth

* Death

* Crafty

* Resourceful

* Creation

* Protection

* Fate

I do it all the time. Spiders catch all sorts of insects – some of which really are disgusting (i.e. roaches). Plus, a neat little fact: it used to be considered bad luck to kill a spider in your home. Cause the spider goddess Arachnia was protectress of the home (where arachnid comes from)! Course always kill the poisonous ones. They won’t do such a great guard job.

No, they are evil and should be politely but firmly encouraged to live outside where they can’t sneak up on people unexpectedly.

Some traditions had spiders as good luck before midnight and bad luck after. Money spiders – obviously – were considered good luck and killing any spider bad luck.

Spiders are a symbol of the Weaver Goddess. If they are not poisonous, then I usually leave them alone or take them outside and let them go, simply because I have 4 cats and children. The only spiders I kill are the poisonous Black Widows and Brown Recluse, which are usually afraid of people and hard to find.

In certain Native American traditions, it is very bad luck to kill a spider. The Ute tribe believes spider to be the embodiment of the Goddess IKTOMI, and to kill one only will get you 400 of her offspring after your head. It’s best to live and let live.

It is, however, extremely good luck to have a CRICKET in your house! (not to mention a lot safer)

I had a pet spider, Charlie, when I was 13 that lived on my bedroom wall one spring and summer. Oh how we laughed and played. When my mom called an exterminator, I took him out of my room for a couple of days and hid him in my locker at school till the poison wore off at home. He ran away during winter and I never saw him again.

I grew up in a farming community and there are good omen connected with spiders. They of course eat other bugs like flies and mosquitoes, so that’s good. It can be a sign of rain if you find them suddenly in your home when they usually are few. But they can bite and cause nasty infections so that is not good. it looks as if it is both good and bad. Peace&Love be with you…~M~

Yes, they are considered to be good luck, but I kill each one that I see because I have a great fear of them.

our house is spider infested lol. Though the best thing about it? There are no flys ever lol.

You however, are awesome. You have a goomba ^^ 1 star for you.

As far as I’m concerned any dead spider is a good spider. Translated…GOOD LUCK!

yes… i mean if you’re good enough for a spider…. all kinds of good will come.

that also goes for lady bugs.
