If you want to protect yourself or your loved ones, a dreamcatcher may be the way to do this. The handmade woven object, designed in a hoop shape with a web or net in the center, originates from Native American culture, where it is viewed as a protective talisman. It is believed to originate from the Anishinaabe people. There is a story of a spider woman who would visit the cribs of newborns; she would weave her web as a way to safeguard them from the evils of the world. The sacred symbol is created to prevent individuals from bad dreams and harmful thoughts, filtering out the negativity and replacing it with positivity. It would be best if you remembered the history of the design before getting inked. Do your research so as not to choose something that could be deemed culturally insensitive.
