The dreamcatcher was an integral part of many Native American cultures. The hole also allows good and positive dreams to pass, while preventing nightmares and bad dreams from reaching the sleeper. The tradition of using dreamcatchers is also widespread among the Inuit, as an Inuit elder explained: 'If you have something beautiful and unique hanging in your house, you will never be alone, because the dreams will always come to you.' The web creates a hole in the center of the dreamcatcher this hole is meant to symbolize how the soul can soar out into the universe. Another common pattern for homemade wire dreamcatchers is that one color represents each of the four directions: white is southwest, blue is northwest, red is northeast, black is south.

The feathers can be dyed any color, just like the yarn used to make the dreamcatchers. The basic design of the dreamcatcher is a round or oval hoop from which several 'traditional' shaped feathers hang. It hangs from the ceiling, where it remains invisible to all but those who are really there (and who know how to get close).

The latter represents the soul of the sleeping person who is protected while assuming his state of unconsciousness. The drawing consists of two parts: an upper part with circles (for the spirit) and another lower part with rings or sometimes a flower. The negative aspect can be overcome by using beads and other decorations that are integrated into the weaving. This structure prevents dreams from rising to the surface of the minds of sleepers while allowing positive dreams to pass. The ropes are woven into a web-like shape made up of two rings that intersect at right angles. The dream catchers originals were created by Native Americans and are still used by some peoples today… They are made from long pieces of wool or thick string, traditionally red, black and white colored threads… It is interesting to note that each string color represents one of the four directions or cardinal directions.
