An in-depth look into the tradition and history of the iconic symbol.

The Ojibwe hung these hoops on their children's beds to catch all of their bad dreams and is one of their oldest traditions. Dream Catchers: Legend, Lore, and Artifacts also explores the New Age movement and the appropriation of these sacred items by Native Americans of different nations.
