According to legend... 'Many, many moons ago, so many moons that the oldest of the Elders have forgotten ... There was a woman whose child suffered nightmares. She went to the village medicine man. He took a twig, bent it, tied it together, and wove thread around it like a spider's web. He left a hole in the center of the web. He tied feathers to the bottom of the hoop and gave it to the woman. He told her to hang it up over the sleeping child. The hole in the web would let the good dreams through, but the web would catch the bad dreams. The bad dreams would slide down the feathers and the morning sun would melt them away. This is the story of the dream catcher and how it came to be. Its found in most Native American tribes, and I'm not sure that any one knows for sure which tribe developed the dream catcher first. Given all of that ... I guess it's YOUR call whether or not that qualifies as pagan, depending on how you define pagan. I'll let you decide.' This is a sender's choice swap. You have one partner and make your partner a dream catcher to help with such things as falling asleep, staying asleep, releasing the day's anxiety and then dreaming. RATE WHEN YOU RECEIVE even if you are not all that enchanted with what came. After all, we are at different levels of our Craft and crafting and we do try to do our best. If you have questions or concerns PM me. USA only because of postage. |
