Icarus and Arachne share the theme of hubris, or excessive pride, leading to their downfall. Both characters defy the limits set by the gods: Icarus ignores his father's warnings about flying too high, while Arachne challenges Athena, the goddess of wisdom, to a weaving contest. Their stories serve as cautionary tales about the consequences of overstepping boundaries and disrespecting divine authority. Ultimately, both face tragic ends as a result of their arrogance.

Arachne was a mortal woman and talented weaver who challenged the godess Athena, and was transformed into a spider.
Both are wonderful weavers, Athena is a immortal and ageless goddess and Arachne is a proud and stubborn mortal.
Arachne creates a problem for herself by boasting about her weaving skills and challenging the goddess Athena to a contest. This arrogance angers Athena, who is not only the goddess of wisdom but also the patron of artisans, particularly weavers. When Arachne wins the contest, Athena retaliates by destroying her work and, in some versions, transforming Arachne into a spider, condemning her to weave for eternity. Thus, her pride and disrespect for the divine lead to her downfall.
In the myth of Daedalus and Icarus, Daedalus represents wisdom and caution, while Icarus embodies youthful recklessness and hubris. Daedalus warns Icarus not to fly too high or too low to avoid the sun's heat and the sea's moisture, but Icarus, overwhelmed by the thrill of flight, ignores this advice and ultimately falls to his demise. The story serves as a cautionary tale about the consequences of ignoring wisdom and the dangers of overambition.
They both were proud about weaving.

In the story of Arachne, the falling action occurs after Arachne and Athena have their weaving contest. Athena, angered by Arachne's hubris, transforms her into a spider. Arachne, now a spider, continues to weave intricate webs for eternity as a punishment from Athena.
After the weaving contest the goddess Athena slashed Arachne's face and Arachne turned into a spider. Because of this Arachne is normally depicted as a scarred weaver or a spider.
