History of Dream Catcher

Dream catchers have different theories and its purpose vary rather religiously. There’s a story of a child, according to a legend, who was very sick. He had a fever due to bad dreams. Then, a woman who practiced medicine made a dream catcher taking spider’s web as a reference.

When bad dreams came to the child, it filtered his bad dreams in the strands. Good dreams took hold of the feathers hanging at the end of the dream catcher and poured on the child’s health. Early in the morning, when the first rays hit the catcher, it would burn all the bad dreams caught in between. Another is a tale of a spider.

It was weaving its web in the window; a child was about to kill it when his grandmother stopped him from doing so. Expressing gratefulness, the spider offered her web which would catch all of her bad dreams.

The other convincing theory about dream catcher is that of Native Americans. Back then, the tribes Ojibwe and Lakota were the ancient tribes of Native America who were fascinated by the spiders. They believed that the spiders protect them from negativity. Like every tribe had a deity to follow, they had Asibikashi who had preternatural powers. They named her “spider woman”.

Due to various circumstances, they had to travel far from their native land which made it difficult to bind them with her protective spell. In order to protect them all, she made the first dream catcher whilst in their term was “Asbikeshiinh”. Thereafter, every grandmother and mother made a dream catcher to protect them from bad omen.

The Ojibwe tribe supposed the night air is loaded with both good and bad dreams. The dream catcher is hung above the head where the rays of sunlight hit. The bad dreams get trapped in the web whereas the good ones are allowed to pass through the feathers and go downhill to the sleeper’s mind. The remaining bad dream entwined in the net gets scorched as soon as the morning rays conquerors over.

What does a Catcher Dream do?

Dream Catcher is also sometimes named as “Sacred Hoops”. Traditionally, these were used as talismans to keep people, usually children, away from bad dreams. Native Americans believe that the night air has both good and bad dreams. When dream catchers are hung in a place above the bed where the morning sunrays fall on, they attract and capture all kinds of dreams and thoughts into its webs.

Then, only good dreams pass through and gently slide down the feathers to comfort the sleeper below. For bad dreams, nevertheless, get stuck in its protective net and destroyed, the light of day burns them.

Meaning of Dream Catcher

What most of you might be wondering is why dream catchers are circular in shape? Is it because it makes it look good or does it have its own significance? Let me walk you through why are they circular. The dream catcher draws its resemblance from the celestial forces of the sun and the moon which travels each day and night to represent the circle of life.

There is a different yet significant meaning of beads attached to the dream catcher. In some context, the beads symbolize the spider, whereas the others consider beads as good dreams which could not pass through the web.
