it was so odd, my energy was getting stronger and what not while meditating and suddenly I look and there is this fury dude, kinda big, crawling on the carpet towards the bed, as soon as it sees me , it runs away and I cannot see it anywhere,

seagrass ? anyone

I know this sounds strange

You can borrow my fly swatter if you like, it doubles as a spider swatter as well.

I live in the Uk, hertfordshire

Are you afraid of spiders? I've always been terrified of them and when I started meditating again I started to go through this weird spider phase. They were showing up more often, in weird places, scaring the crap out of me. I looked for a way to stop it and decided to try and become fearless when it comes to them. Now, I see one and instead of screaming like a banshee, looking for the hairspray to spray it to death (never could get the nerve to smash them), I get something for it to crawl onto and put it out the window. I then tell it in my mind "You see I left you alone so please do the same for me". I hardly ever see them now and when I do I'm not scared.

I've heard several similar accounts from people dealing with the Shadow Entities. The spider shaped ones are common. They usually accompany larger Shadow Entities.

er, great

I havent see any shadow people

Well if you haven't seen them, they don't exist. In that case, call an exterminator. Like John Goodman in Arachnophobia.

Other beings are attracted to positive energies...

He was probably just curious... maybe he sensed that positive vibe and wanted to know what it was...

this and you are also becoming more aware/mindful now

the spider[s] simply went unnoticed before.

it's said we've all swallowed a spider or 2 in our sleep

Have had that once or twice I think, big house spiders though. One shot across the carpet, and I'd usually jump a bit and wonder where it was going, but when you meditate it's great how things like that can happen and you just feel the rush of energy which quickly passes and things are back to normal again.

As long as it doesn't start crawling all over my face not too bothered.

It is common for these spiders to be seen weaving over a person's third eye. Many believe they do this to close the third eye to keep the person unaware, so it wouldn't suprise me if they accompany shadow entities. The "enlightened" ones of our society like to keep them away...

after a spiritual experience I had in the cosmos I am no longer afraid of spiders, in fact I appreciate them they are now cute to me, I let them crawl all over my hands, I don't kill spiders anymore...

my whole life I have chased them with tissues or used a bug catcher to liberate them from my surroundings but this experience was a little odd, though given meditation, and the unconscious and what someone said to me 3 days previous, it seems more likely it was a reflection of that than anything else
