The legend goes, Asibikaashi (Spider Woman) brought the sun back to the world every morning. When the Ojibwe Nation grew and spread across the lands, Asibikashi found it difficult to make the journey to greet all of her people. Wanting to protect her people, especially the children who had no defenses against the evil spirits who lurk in dreams, she instructed the women to weave magical webs for their children and grandchildren. She told them to make the hoops from branches of the red willow tree and to hang them where they would see the sun’s first light. The good dreams pass through the center of the Dreamcatcher, travel down the feather, and into the minds of sleeping children. The bad dreams are caught in the webbing and destroyed by the sun’s light.
