According to the Native American Legend, It is believed that dreams, both good and bad, float through the air during the night searching for their destination. While sleeping under a dream catcher, bad dreams get caught in the web and perish with the light of the day. The good dreams easily slip through the centre hole, working their way down the web catching all the good energies of the bead and adornments as they float down the feathers and into the dreamer's head. One never fears bad dreams and negative energy while around a dream catcher.
