dream channeling with Navajo wrapped
dream catchers and ostrich feathers
->☽✧-Δ-✧☾<-
Soft white small catchers with giant white ostrich
feathers and coco beads. Embrace the Native Americans and weave a web to allow
the good dreams to channel down to a bliss sleeping state. Traditionally the
catcher is a small hoop of a few inches in size with a hole in the center,
representing strength and unity. The feather guides the good dreams down whilst
the bad ones get lost tangled and stopped in the web, dying in mornings first
light. I have these above my bed, on my work inspiration wall, indoor tree and
my goldfish even have some hanging above their giant tank. I see many catchers
made with thread but found that fluffy white wool was a unique soft variant. I
used scrap Navajo fabric used to make fabric ribbon (link coming) which was
used to make my mantle ‘Green Navajo Cocoon kimono’ from Imbolc Brighids
celebrations, in this transition of the winter to Spring equinox (link coming).
