Spiders are also a symbol of creativity due to the intricate webs they spin. On a negative note, spiders may indicate a feeling of being entangled or trapped in a sticky or clingy relationship. It represents some ensnaring and controlling force. You feel that someone or some situation is sucking the life right out of you.

All of this. Especially the bold. 

I am feeling trapped and unhappy at my job, but honestly it's not the end of the world and I could be in far worse circumstances. I need to stop looking at other jobs for now, especially because at this one I can still do my school work.

Dragons: Gold Vs Red

To see a dragon in your dream represents your strong will and fiery personality. You tend to get carried away by your passion, which may lead you into trouble. You need to exercise some self-control. If you dream about the birth of a dragon, then it refers to your emerging passion and strong will. In particular, dreaming of a metal dragon signifies an unyielding character, a water dragon symbolizes quiet confidence, a wood dragon means an analytical and logical mind, a fire dragon refers to a competitive nature and leadership and an earth dragon signifies sociability.

This makes me think of my strong desire for constant mental stimulation and wanting to be in a different work environment... flash back to the spiders as someone stopping me, they are warning me about using self control before I fuck up. 

I Think Aaron is right... someone is interfering and they're leaving a calling card.
