Jamie, I'm glad you've reached out to share your dream with me. In this dream, where you were helping the kids get ready, the spider under your fingernail, seemingly innocuous and even adorable, represents something that's on your mind, despite being small or seemingly insignificant. Spiders often symbolize feelings of being an outsider or dealing with something that's intricately woven, much like a web. The fact that it's under your fingernail could indicate a sense of irritation or discomfort about a situation that's close at hand—literally under your skin—but which you're trying to handle delicately, as you would with something fragile and small.
Considering your role as a mother and a spiritualist, it's clear that nurturing and guiding others are significant aspects of your life. The act of getting the kids ready implies preparation for a new phase or journey, not just for them but also for you. The distraction by the tiny spider suggests that while you're focused on caring for others, there may be personal concerns or creative ideas you're keeping to yourself, indicated by the right hand, often associated with the conscious and active part of one's psyche.
Reflecting on your previous dreams about moving and changes, it seems there's a theme of transition in your life. The moves discussed in those dreams, along with the desire to choose a place conducive to your work, highlight the importance of environment and how it supports your personal and professional growth. The presence of children and family members in these dreams suggests that your decisions are deeply influenced by their needs and your relationships with them.
In your earlier dreams, there was a recurring element of security, from locking doors to concerns about intruders, indicating a need for safety and protection during a period of change. The spider in your current dream, though small and non-threatening, could be an echo of these security concerns—a reminder that even the smallest issues need attention to maintain that feeling of safety.
Lastly, the notion of something adorable hiding under your fingernail might be a subconscious recognition of the need to nurture not only your children but also the small, delicate parts of yourself that you've perhaps been neglecting. This dream doesn't carry a sense of urgency or negativity, as its emotion level is low, and it didn't arise as a nightmare. It appears to be a gentle nudge from your psyche, pointing toward self-care and the acknowledgment of your personal needs amidst your responsibilities to others.
Take this dream as an affirmation of your inner strength and ability to handle the complexities of life, much like a spider skillfully manages her web. Your dreams seem to be guiding you towards balance, encouraging you to consider your own well-being as you support those around you.
