Yep, there were a lot of messages on a lot of topics
so I don't remember all of them. One of my many
failings...stories...<g>...in this case, it was Spider
WOMAN, as in singular which I first heard of from Mary
and Dean Hardy, authors of the fascinating book,
'Pyramid Energy' which you can probably still buy from
them or metaphysical type bookstores.
The premise comes from some American Indian tribe who
describe the earth as having been woven and sustain it
and us. This was of course preceded by the Eastern
Indian descriptions of a spider woman who 'weaves
creation'.
Other books deal with ley lines and grids across the
earth as being analogous to spider webs.
I believe what we had been discussing was the idea of
using archetypes in narratives and legends where these
archetypes had specific attributes not comprehended by
the masses but understood by initiates and 'those who
could see'. The masses would pass them on in legend,
but there would be descriptions which correlated to
physical or energy phenomena, such as the web being
analogous to an aether matrix.
And it ties in with Dr. Ivanovs idea of gravity as due
to interference patterns (spider webs);

Why does a spider settle down in a web exactly like in
the model obtained? I had not a shadow of a doubt,
that in Nature it must be precisely this way. Then was
found the coincidence that proved it - that a spider
really settles itself in a web always head down, if
the web is vertical, of course. However, in this
connection, another question arose: Why a spider has
such a likeness with the interference pattern? Why is
it a spider, but not other beings?
With time, an answer was found, but the most
interesting thing was waiting ahead of us: Why does
mythology or rock carvings contain information about
the processes discovered by us? Maybe we are not the
first, maybe our remote ancestors knew all of this,
but, as a result of global cataclysms, they were not
able to keep the knowledge in their hands?
A few days had not passed before corroborations were
found. Skimming through different encyclopedias of
historical and esoteric kinds it was found that: -
American Indians have a legend about the Man-Spider,
whose web connects heavenly worlds with the Earth; -
the secret schools of India describe some gods, who
were working on creating the Universe, as beings
weaving a web - a network which links the world of
light and the world of darkness. They call these the
builders of the cosmic system, who tied the embryo of
the Universe with Invisible Power, Gods - Spiders and
their ruler - The Great Spider.

Hopi legend;

"The great Spider Woman made all the birds of clay and
made them come alive, so thus have I made one for you,
and when you toss it into the air the breeze will make
it look as if it too were alive,"

Below.

Spider Woman used the clay of the earth, red, yellow,
white, and black, to create people. To each she
attached a thread of her web which came from the
doorway at the top of her head. This thread was the
gift of creative wisdom. Three times she sent a great
flood to destroy those who had forgotten the gift of
her thread.

It was Spider Woman who taught Dine (Navajo) ancestors
of long ago the art of weaving upon a loom. She told
them, "My husband, Spider Man, constructed the weaving
loom making the cross poles of sky and earth cords to
support the structure; the warp sticks of sun rays,
lengthwise to cross the woof; the healds of rock
crystal and sheet lightning, to maintain original
condition of fibres. For the batten, he chose a sun
halo to seal joints, and for the comb he chose a white
shell to clean strands in a combing manner." Through
many generations, the Dine (Navajo) have always been
accomplished weavers.
