I doubt it has much to do with a past life. Many people fear spiders. They have eight legs, spin webs, and look creepy. Furthermore, they are associated with poison and sickness.
My belief is arachnaphobia comes from how we are raised. In many families spiders get a huge reaction. People hopping around like crazies and newspapers coming out of thin air. In my family however spiders are treated with respect, often being released back outside as we find them. There is no crazy hopping about or madness associated with them.
I do not fear spiders or any arachnid/invertabrate. In fact i love them, they are my favorite creatures. In fact I often do not bother moving them outside unless they are dangerous like a black widow. I think being afraid of spiders depends a lot on how we are raised to treat them. If you are scared of them you should read up on them.
Spiders will almost never bite what they are crawling on. so if a spider is on you your in a pretty good way honestly. It takes considerable trama to make a spider bite what its walking on. Second spiders will rarely use any venom at all in their bites. This is especially true if they are unsure what they are biting, like a person so large they can not tell its a large mammal :P.
Best of luck,
Silence

What happens when you see a rolled up newspaper, do you come out in a cold sweat. I bet you cant wait for the one with the newspaper to get their dinner can you, I bet you make your way straight to the mashed spud, Then you do the fly stomp, the one where you trample your way through it, then you scoop some up on your dirty dog pooh covered feet, throw it back on the pile and then sick in it.... if you do all these then yes you was a fly. Do you have a preference to hard or soft doggy doings, I find if you stick with the soft stuff you can spread more bugs try it, any way must fly .......lol

maybe you were a spider, maybe your previous life had you so tormented, maybe you were a fly trapped in a spiders body and you hated you fellow spiders so much that you are now in a deep denial. you were not a fly, admit that you were a spider, the first step is admitting you have a problem.

I doubt it...Karma would seem to dictate that you were the SPIDER, so you learn from a lesser creature.
