The Legend of the Dream-Catcher

A important facet of Lakota and Ojibwe history and lore, the Dream Catcher plays an important role. A mystical and maternal "Spider Woman" served as the spiritual protector for the tribe, especially for young children, kids and babies.

As the Ojibwe people continued to grow and spread out across the land, The Spider Woman found it difficult to continue to protect and watch over all the members of the tribe as they migrated farther and farther away. This is why she created the first dreamcatcher. Following her example, mothers and grandmothers would recreate the maternal keepsake as a means of mystically protecting their children and families from afar.
