One of my most frequently experienced dream signs is seeing a black widow spider and then being bitten by it and then dying shortly thereafter. I always wake up after I die in the dream. Am I waking myself up or is it just the end of the dream and some how my mind could tell that I was about to wake up and ended it? Regardless, this is helping me obtain lucidity because I can see a dark box or something and think there may be spiders in there and there always will be and I sense for a moment that I'm dreaming, so it's helping, but it's also causing my dreams to end. Any input, anyone?
