I just have experienced difference in perceiving visionary the appearance of my main medicine animal .From the moment the spider started to appear to me it was in more shadowy gray hue in my dreams and visions ,tho when on rampage and protecting me it would morph into black spider that pretty much look as the black widow (in my visions not dreams ).
Few nights ago i was dragged out of my dreaming state into a state of half awake and half asleep which is more known to folks as alpha state .So i saw very vivid vision with amazing colors of a very pure white spider that had this golden cross on its back .There was source of light from somewhere that was very soft and in same time strong and it would create this amazing colors on the web and on the spider .It was so amazing that i can not even explain it .
Have someone had similar experience in his shamanisctic or eclectic path ?Did my perception of it changed ,because something in me changed ?Or did it really changed ,because i changed ?What is causing this sudden change either of perception or either of its appearance ?

Please ,answer only if you have certain theory about the event that is based on something solid ,or if you have had such experience in the past with your own medicine .I am taking this very serious and i really do not want to see this thread becoming some soft of fantasy show or fighting ground .
