Tarantula
(Hairy spider; Spider) A tarantula in a dream represents a loathsome
and an evil woman who interferes with people’s business and damages their
interests, or who destroys what they repair and denies having anything to do
with their sufferings. In a dream, this interpretation is based on the legendary
nervous disease, formerly believed to be caused by a poisonous bite of a
tarantula. Thus, when this harmless hairy spider is seen in a dream, it also could
represent a lethal enemy of a fierce sting, scowling, or a despising look. (Also

but does not cover his ears or eyes in a dream, it means prosperity. If he sees
grass growing on people’s hands or floating on water in a dream, it means a good
harvest and prosperity for everyone. If weeds grow at the same time in the
dream, they connote negative effects. If a sick person sees such a dream, it
means that he is nearinghis death. Grass growingover one’s stomach in a dream
means his death or his burial after death. If grass grows all over one’s body but
does not cover his head in the dream, it means prosperity and wealth. If the grass
covers one’s eyes and ears in the dream, it means that he will become heedless
and loses the advantages of his religious life. The same interpretation is given
if one sees feathers growing over his body. If poisonous weeds grow over one’s
body in a dream, they represent an illness or death. As grass is cattle’s food and
cattle represents people’s wealth, then gathering and eating grass in a dream
means prosperity. If an ascetic sees himself eating grass in a dream, it means
that he will revert to desiring the world and its pleasures, and consequently, he
will be deceived by it. Wild grass in a dream represent bad earnings and a
miserable life. Cutting and selling grass in a dream means dispelling stress and
