Comments & ID Thoughts
I live in an apartment in the northeast region of Brazil, that is know for its warm climate. I found this spider 5 months ago on my ceiling and took it to a plant located in my balcony, and it is here since then. It's approximately 4 centimeters long and she has a web. Her back turned white as she reached a certain age, and her legs have black circles around it. Right now I assume this is a species of domestic spiders, but I still had no success finding pictures or scientific names for my pet spider.

It seems to be an “Argiope Argentata”. But correct me if I’m wrong.
Yep I think your ID is correct, Silver Argiope – Argiope argentata.
