Dream Catcher

The dream catcher originated in the 18th century, and its name originated from the Ojibwe language "asabikeshiinh", which means spider or cobweb. The Indians believed that the dream catcher could filter the dream, bring them into a beautiful dreamland, and make the nightmare disappear with the morning sun. 

Pattern 

The shape of a traditional dream catcher is a circle with some feathers hanging from leather at one end of the circle. There is a round hole in the middle of the net, and legend has it that only good dreams can pass through that hole and flow down the feathers, while bad dreams will get trapped in the net and disappear with the next day's sunlight. 

Use 

The dream catcher was originally used as an exorcism talisman for children. 
Traditional dream catchers are also often hung as a pendant on the head of the bed or by the pillow to ward off nightmares. 
As one of today's fashion elements, the improved dream catcher is often used in gold, silver, natural stone and other jewelry accessories. 

Implied meaning 

The dream catcher is a symbol of unity among many Indian peoples and a universal symbol for identifying American Indians and First Nations cultures. 

The dream catcher symbolizes the retention of good dreams and blessings. The dream catcher necklace or dream catcher bracelet is given to others as a gift, which means that people can catch good dreams, strengthen the communication between people and the spiritual world, and have better sleep quality. 

The circle of the dream catcher represents the sun and the moon. Wearing the accessories of the dream catcher can keep you from losing yourself in nightmares and bring good luck to those who are sleeping.
