I haven't done the write-up yet,
but in the deck, the redback spider represents (among other things): surrender, giving yourself away, the feminine principle.


Redback Spider




I think I'm coming down with something...
but that doesn't really surprise me after the past few days.

Thank you so much for this. It's just amazing. My mate and I both love it.

Another rockin' image! I love the aqua/rust shading.

[nicanthiel.livejournal.com]

It's...wow. Very powerful. I can feel it through the screen, and that's not usual by a long shot. (I tend to be a concrete-head when it comes to things like that)

-applauds- It's gorgeous.

Hmmm...

While I'm not sooo afraid of spiders anymore (a lesson taught by scorpions over the past 2 years...), they're still disturbing for the most part.

This painting looks like an eyeball to me. It's striking, but I can't honestly say I like it. ((shudders))

It says a lot to me about self-perception.

Well, I know I mentioned I'm not a spider person, but I do definitely like the symbolism here...the kind of spidery veins of life-blood streaming out...definitely a feminine feeling.

wicked. ;-)

sorry you feeling oogy health-wise, but honestly i wouldn't be surprised if you're doing a bit of "house-cleaning"... sucks to be sick, but can be rather cathartic..

you've been doing quite the battle, make sure you baby yourself for a bit now.. 'kay?...

I have the eyeball thing going as well- looks like the veiny bits at the back of one. Is that an egg in the centre?

Oh wow, that is amazing! I first saw an "eyeball" but now for some reason it reminds me of the hanged man from the major arcana in tarot.

Oh, and do make certain to take care of yourself if an ailment is approuching ^_^

I'm extremely arachnaphobic, but luckily I don't mind depictions. :)

[dibeartach.livejournal.com]

Hmm, to me, it looks like rivulets of fire.
I'm mad arachnophobic, but Spider is fast becomming a really strong shadow symbol for me at the moment - a silver spider.
Looks awesome as redback.

Oh wow. That's beautiful. I love it.

Spiders give me the heebie-jeebies. If I saw that spider in real life, I'd take off screaming.

But it's a kick ass picture.

I might have asked this before (if I have, then my only explanation is that i just woke up), but what medium do you use for your work?

[teriel.livejournal.com]

I like it a lot. Are there webs emanating from it?

[lupabitch.livejournal.com]

I think spiders are awesome, this one included! I like the lines in this one; it's a unique take on the concept of "web".

[makhsihed.livejournal.com]

Eeeeespider! :D

I freaking adore spiders. (Like I said a while ago - I would die very quickly in Australia. I have this bad habit of picking up the pretties...)

This is beautifully done. Extraordinarily dynamic, as always.

Drink lots of tea and feel better! *hugs*

[poetrywolf.livejournal.com]

*grins* This is stunningly gorgeous. Thank you for sharing.

[e-falki.livejournal.com]

This is amazing!

In this art I see an image of a tunnel like cave. The background gives me an illusion that I am entering and the foreground the illusion that I am leaving. In a sense it gives me the impression that I have two choices...one way is forward and the other backward. It's interesting how this balance works.

[micalela.livejournal.com]

I think Spider would be very proud of what you have drawn of her. Me toO!!

[blackdragon5.livejournal.com]

I love spiders and this one is beautiful. The spider is the only animal spirit that appears to me in different forms, usually a jumping spider or a female golden garden spider. To me they represent, facing fears, because I used to be scared to death of them and now I think they are fascinating.

[pagan-panther.livejournal.com]

I can feel my spine tingle, but it's still a beautiful picture. It reminds me a lot of the Blackwidow Spider we have in North America. VERY poisonous but it's rare someone dies from it despite her reputation. Is this a similar type spider to the Blackwidow? Is its bite toxic to humans?
