Before technology, life was a lot simpler. People were more aware of all the natural things around - above and below them. This is a picture of what those dreams may have looked like. Made traditionally of willow and woven into a sacred circle – the web is made to trap bad dreams and allow good ones to drift gently down the soft feathers below. Dream catchers are a beautiful part of Native American mythology. They take us back to a time when dreams were magical visions and the beauty of nature was not occasionally enjoyed, but a way of life. We are reminded of the simple natural beauty and the undiscovered mysteries of life still there today.
Butterflies – By Robert Bach
The mark of your ignorance
Is the depth of your belief in injustice and tragedy
What the caterpillar calls the end of the world
The Master calls a butterfly
