Our Red Back Spider is depicted on the card on the lower bottom of the card with a large red symbol for Scorpio in front of her. Also her web is depicted sparkling and shining in the Moonlight just waiting to catch some unexpecting thing. The background colour is blue for communication. It is important that you remember to communicate your needs and not just expect others to know what it is your want or feel. You need to be aware that you don’t get too caught up in the physical as depicted by the colour Red. Passion for you can entangle, so be aware to control your desires. Find out what it is that you need not what you want. As needs and wants are very different. We don’t always need what we want.

If Spider has weaved her way into your life ‘Spirit’ is reminding you that all things are interconnected. All things are woven together in this web of life. You need to put things together to see the whole picture. Hear, feel and see your answers. Don’t allow yourself to be trapped by another‘s web of deception.
