Beautiful colorful dream catcher in purple colors with crocheted net, cotton strings and colorful feathers. Dream catchers, according to ancient Indian wisdom, are hung above the bed, where they trap the bad dreams in their net. The good dreams, on the other hand, slip through the net and escape back into the open. The morning sun neutralizes all the bad dreams caught in the dream catcher`s net. Dream catchers are an ancient tradition of the Native Americans of North America, but are surrounded by various traditions.
