Dreams are curious things. Some stay with us long after we wake, some disappear in seconds, and some feel as though we’ve been somewhere else entirely. For centuries, people have wondered about the worlds we wander through while we sleep. 🌙✨
Dreamcatchers have a beautiful history of their own. They originate with the Ojibwe people of North America, where they were traditionally made as protective charms, particularly for children, and hung close to where they slept.
At the heart of their story is Asibikaashi, the Spider Woman, a protective figure in Ojibwe tradition. As communities spread across a wider land, the story tells that she could no longer reach every child, so mothers and grandmothers began weaving small hoops and webs to carry that protection with them. 🕸️🤍
The web was believed to catch harmful dreams and energies during the night, while allowing good dreams to pass through. When morning came, the first light of day would clear away anything unwanted that had been caught there. Such a lovely thought to have hanging beside the bed. ✨
Over time, dreamcatchers have travelled far beyond their original beginnings and taken on all sorts of beautiful forms. At White Rabbit Glastonbury we have them woven with feathers and wooden beads, crescent moons, chakra colours, Triple Moons, soft natural threads and some gorgeous, unique black designs too. 🪶🌙
They’re beautiful above a bed, in a meditation space, or simply somewhere in the home that could use a little more softness, colour and magic. And some of ours are enormous, so if subtle isn’t the plan, we’ve got that covered too. 😊✨
Come and have a look at our collection at White Rabbit Glastonbury and see which one catches your eye. 🌙🪶
