Dream Catchers

West of Santa Fe - Wednesday, October 05, 2011

The story of the Dream Catcher is one of the most beautiful in Indian mythology. It is believed that it originated from the Oneida Indians in the Northeast part of America. A dream catcher was usually placed above an infant's cradleboard. The web of the dream catcher would filter all dreams and let only the good dreams flow through the open circle. The dream catcher was kept throughout life and its power was enhanced with fetishes and personal belongings.

We carry many different Silver Dream catcher earrings and pendants, as well as some wall hangings (coming soon) that you too can hang above your bed.
