Spider Woman created the world, the sun, the moon, and She reminds us that even small creatures have great power. She is often mocked, reviled and feared, but She perserveres, creating Her worlds.
Tradition tells us that it is Spider Woman who taught humans how to plant and grow, how to harvest. She gave us fire and taught us how to find shelter.
Spider Woman teaches us to find our own creativity and to spin that into success. The faeries encourage us to create friends. Friends are not to be taken lightly or for granted, and are the bulwarks in our lives, sheltering us from hard times and rejoicing with us in times of plenty.

Mary and the earth
It seems that almost every culture throughout the world has a link to Mary, who could be viewed as the Mother Goddess.
She is the true creator of the world, and what makes Her most wonderful is Her humility. She did not believe in Her own creative ability until She used it -- which is a model for everyone. When She did believe, She created the angel Gabriel out of fire, and he is her fiercest defender.
Mary is compassionate and kind, She is the Mother we turn to in times of trouble and need. But, like our own earthly mothers, we should remember to include Her in our joy and love and thank Her for those gifts, especially when they are given unasked. And She does give generously, although many are unaware.
The faeries tell us to be aware of our impact on the environment, to be kind to Mother Earth, which is perhaps one of the greatest gifts from Stella Maris (another name for Mary), to guard and protect the oceans which are also special to Mary's heart. Even those with no gardening ability can help guard this precious gift.
