About this listen
From the corners of ancient temples to the shadows of our subconscious, the spider has always been more than a creature — she’s a weaver of worlds, a keeper of fate, and a mirror of the human soul.
In this episode, we trace the spider’s silk through myth, medicine, and magic: from Anansi’s clever web of wisdom, to Spider Woman’s cosmic loom, Arachne’s defiant artistry, Jorōgumo’s silk seductions, and the Andean Grandmother Weaver who spun the constellations into cloth.
We’ll explore how spider venom was once seen as both poison and panacea, how her silk inspired early healers and modern science alike, and how the fear of spiders reveals our deepest unease with the feminine, the shadow, and the power to create and destroy.
This is an episode about the threads that connect all things — the medicine hidden in what we fear, and the reminder that we, too, are the weavers of our own destinies.
