Dream about spider webs

Hi, This is my first post in this forum. Please excuse my English as it is not my first language.

Please advise: Before I went to bed I asked God to give me a sign. We are contemplating to emmigrate from South Africa to Australia for safety (and work related) reasons and I am not sure if it is the right thing to do. I have to admit that the fact that I would have to do my own housework also scared me.

In my dream I woke up, realised that I overslept, and went to the back door to open for my domestic worker. On the door I noticed a spider web with a spider on. It was too dark to see so I fetched a lamp. With the light of the lamp I could clearly see a black widow spider (commonly found in SA and known to be deadly). With the lamp in my hand I now also noticed that my whole house was filled with spider webs. I could not step anywhere without stepping on a web. It was also on my furniture and walls. Strangely enough I was not scared. I realised that the rest of the webs did not belong to the deadly spider but to the rain spider (a very large spider almost like the tarantula but not venamous) Although I did not see them I knew there had to be thousands of them in my house.

In my diningroom my sister and her mother in law was standing. I greeted my sister but not her mother in law. In the lounge I found my mother and other sister. My 3rd sister's husband also came to visit. I realised I still had my pajamas on so I went to my bedroom to get dressed.

On the way I noticed our black gardener in a room with a broom trying to clean the webs. Although it looked much better, there were still some webs in the room that he did not clean. In my bedroom the webs were everywhere and my right ankle got enstrangled in the web. I then noticed two baby rain spiders on the floor at the end of my bed. They were almost on top of each other. I went to fetch a shoe in order to kill them. Just then my husband came in and tried to clean the base of the bed with his hand (he did not see the spiders) so when I was ready to hit the spiders they were gone. I was angry with my husband.

I opened my cupboard to get clothes and noticed that all my clothes were covered with a piece of material in order to protect it from the webs. I was not certain that it worked though as my cupboard inside also had webs. I felt something in my toes and wanted to take my shoes off to clean them out. I noticed that I had slippers on over my sandals.

My brother in law was ready to leave so I went outside with him. In the street in front of my house there was a car with a lady on the roof. She was lying on her tummy and although she had a sharong on I noticed that she had a swimming costume underneath. I realised that they are busy shooting an advertisement. Inside the car was two other girls also with costumes on. A man was driving the car. The lady on the roof was a bit chubby for a model and I was not sure why they would choose her for the add. When she got up I noticed that she was pregnant.

Any ideas please:)

Spiders as well as the webs are symbolic of evil. You are being shown that evil has surrounded you. islam is anti-christ the religion does not believe that Jesus is the Son of God that He was a prophet only. All of africa is islam, chirtians are a small number in most of Africa. You are now surrounded by evil by anti-christ as is shown in the dream of the spider webs, your thoughts are that some of those that are islam are good people and you are unafraid of them and this is shown by the two different types of spiders. The woman on the car many of us have seen and she is evil and showing her ready to give birth is a bad thing it shows a birth to greater evil from the islam religion. I would take this as a dream from God and a warning type dream of greater evil to come to africa.

I do not see evil in your dream but fear. The spider webs represent all of the things you need to take care of before you leave, and your fear which is only implied in your dream, is related to the unknown rather than something to truly be afraid of. Nothing can happen to you unless God allows it. If God allows something bad to happen to you, it will happen regardless of where you are. Follow God. Let Him worry about it.

God gives us warning so something bad does not happen. if you see a truck coming down the road and you begin to step out and the Holy Spirit warns you allerts you to the coming danger you have two options one listen to the Spirit and get back up on the curb and live. or two ignor the Spirt step out in the street and get smacked and die. God will guide us to safty we must be willing to follow His will, if not we are not following Gods will then our actions are our consiquences. Gods will may be for you to live to be 80 if you follow His guidence you will live to be 80, follow your own will and step out in front of a truck at 40 and you will die at 40. We have a responsibility to follow gods will and listen to His warnings.

To be honest I do not know that many Islamic people in SA. +-75% of the population in SA are Christian. This includes my domestic worker and my gardener.

The explanation of fear and that I still have a lot to attend to does make more sense, but does this mean that God wants me to leave my country and my family or does he want me to stick it out?

I am more than prepared to either leave or stay as long as I know for sure that that is what God wanted me to do.

Last night I had a second dream. I dreamt that my little 6 year old boy and I was in a car on the highway. He was behind the steering wheel. All of a sudden I noticed 2 women in the middle of the road running with dogs on leashes. I checked the speed at which my boy was driving and noticed that it was only 90km p/h (the speed limit is 120), but i still told him to slow down as I felt we were going too fast. As I looked up I noticed a person on a bicycle also in the middle of the raod. We almost hit the bicycle and I had to grab the steering wheel. I then noticed a whole pack of dogs in the road standing around what looked like a dog that was ran over by a car.

Suddenly the road came to an end in what looked like a huge natural dam of water. We stopped the car and got out. I knew we had to get to the building on the other side, but was worried that my boy would not be able to swim there. Suddenly on the lefthand side I saw what looked like chairs packed in the water so that you could walk over. I told my boy to go 1st, but when he got to the middle the chairs started sinking and the water almost covered his head.

This is what i believe some of the symbols in your dream represent .........In my dream I woke up, realised that I overslept, an opportunity that could be missed if not acted upon and went to the back door to open for my domestic worker. On the door I noticed a spider web with a spider on it . It was too dark to see so I fetched a lamp. < the lamp represents something that was once hidden is now being revealed )With the light of the lamp I could clearly see a black widow spider black widow could represent femminim power (commonly found in SA and known to be deadly). With the lamp in my hand I now also noticed that my whole house was filled with spider webs. I could not step anywhere without stepping on a web. It was also on my furniture and walls. Job 29:3 when his lamp shone upon my head
and by his light I walked through darkness! 4 Oh, for the days when I was in my prime,
when God's intimate friendship blessed my house.


In my opportunity my sister and her mother in law was standing. I greeted my sister but not her mother in law. In the lounge I found my mother and other sister. My 3rd sister's husband also came to visit. I realised I still had my pajamas on so I went to my bedroom to get dressed.

On the way I noticed our black gardener in a room with a broom trying to clean the webs. Although it looked much better, there were still some webs in the room that he did not clean. In my bedroom the webs were everywhere and my right ankle got femminim in the web.<caught in a web feeling trapped by a certain situation.>I then noticed two baby rain spiders on the floor at the end of my bed. They were almost on top of each other. I went to fetch a shoe in order to kill them. <the baby spiders could represent a small problem that could become a huge problem .Just then my husband came in and tried to clean the base of the bed with his hand (he did not see the spiders) so when I was ready to hit the spiders they were gone. I was angry with my husband.A disagreement ,your seeing things one way yet he may see it ,but choose to over look it....

I opened my cupboard to get clothes and noticed that all my clothes were covered with a piece of material in order to protect it from the webs. I was not certain that it worked though as my cupboard inside also had webs. I felt something in my toes and wanted to take my shoes off to clean them out. I noticed that I had slippers on over my sandals. (slippers and sandals represents two choices slippers represents domesticity comfort and ease) sandals represents more mobility the fact that you put slippers over your sandals represents a choice your favoring over another...

I still strongly believe that God is warning you. if you will look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Worldreligion.png

Understand islam has the fastest growth rate of any religion in the world and islam is anti-christ. Please read of the horrors that are happening in north africa. whole christian churchs members are being slautered including the pastors. this is happening daily by those of islamic faith. The comfy nest you are now in is being surrounded by a dark storm coming from the north. Take Gods warning.

The Lord has been giving me prophetic dreams for the past two years. At first, I did not know how to interpret them. I posted them on several websites, asking others to perhaps give me understanding of what they mean.

Then, one day one person responded by saying that if the dreams are of God, that I should ask God for the interpretation - duh! Why didn't I think of that? So, I began writing down the dreams and then I asked God for understanding of the dreams and just continued reading in the word wherever I left off reading last.

Some dreams were just dreams and God did not give me understanding of them, but most were of God and he showed me how the dreams were like parables or like pictures stories of the scriptures that I then read. Sometimes the dreams came after the scriptures, because often God wakes me in the middle of the night to spend time with him and then I go back to sleep.

I'll post some of them on here to give you some idea of what I'm talking about, but I soon learned that the dreams were God's way of giving a message that he wanted me to give out to others, mainly the Church.

So, what I recommend is that you do the same. Just ask the Lord what the dream means and just read in the Bible where you have been reading and let the Word of God speak to your heart.

Wow thanks Gracebewithyou. I did get some clarity on a few things. I know that if I want to be successful in my application for a PR visa I have to move fast, this just showed me that I must not procrastinate like I've been doing lately.

Thanks also to Christfreeservant. I have been praying for God to give me the interpretation, and He did help me to find some of the answers, but I have to admit that I am a very impatient person (one of my many sins). I do however believe that He can also speak to one through other Christians, so that is why I want to keep all communication lines open.

With regards to the Muslim community I did a search on the internet and found that SA has 2.5% Muslims and Australia 1.5%. There is therefore not much of a difference. I do see your point on Northern Africa though, but the neighboring countries of SA also do not have that many Muslims.
