The primary use of the dream catcher is to watch over sleep, to block bad dreams.
The belief is that dreams, messages from spirits, circulate around us and that the dream catcher, near the head, can filter them. Often people put it near the window, so that the first rays of the sun will burn bad dreams.
Our handmade dream catcher combines the protective qualities of traditional dream catchers with the symbolic meanings of the color brown, bringing a sense of grounding, stability, and connection to nature.
Dream catchers have become popular as decorative items, often hung near beds or in homes to add a touch of symbolism and cultural richness to the space.
Traditional dream catchers are often handmade by skilled artisans, incorporating natural materials like wood, sinew and feathers. They are made with materials from mother earth. It is not a simple activity of creative art but a real path to the sacred.
Dream catchers are not only decorative but also carry deep cultural and spiritual significance for those who believe in their protective qualities.
Many people view dream catchers as a connection to the spiritual world, fostering positive energy and serving as a reminder of cultural heritage.
Feathers attached to the bottom of the dream catcher represent breath or air, essential for life, while beads symbolize the spider that wove the web.
