Ojibwe: Story Of The Dream Catchers

Dream catchers are a type of Native American symbol and folklore that originated with the Ojibwe people. They are typically made of a hoop with a woven net or web inside, adorned with feathers and beads. The purpose of a dream catcher is to protect the sleeper from bad dreams and negative energies while letting positive dreams pass through. The web catches the bad dreams and lets them dissipate with the morning light, while the feathers and beads are believed to bring good dreams and positive energy.
