How To Ensure That Your Charm Catcher Is Effective

By Frank Bennett


Ancient American societies believed in the mystery of nature that connected everything including animals, people and objects into a singular stream. Good and bad dreams existed side by side. With a charm catcher it is possible to sieve good dreams or omen and deter the bad omen from affecting you. All you needed to do was create a web that would stop the bad dreams from getting to you.

The general design of dream catchers varied depending on personal preference. There were both small and large catchers. The components of making catchers could be obtained from specialty shops. They are available in the form of pendants that are used on necklaces. Since they can be used on different parts of the body, it is the individual who made that choice on design.

Traditionally, catchers were woven by grandmothers for their newborn grand children and hung over their sleeping area. This would enable children to have a peaceful night. Today, they are hang even on adults using bracelets and chains. This ensures that the adult is protected from harmful charms and will only encounter the good spirits. Feathers were the most common materials used when the catchers were to be left hanging on the bed.

Beyond the bedroom, catchers are also used on the body. They help people to capture good omen while on the move. This explains why real bird feathers have been abandoned in favor of sculptures. The real feather is unable to withstand sweat, water and other natural elements. Crystals of different shapes and sizes have also been used to make the catchers more attractive.

The overall design of a catcher depends on personal taste. Personal preference does not eliminate the web and the feather from the general design. The web is used for confusing bad omen while movement of the feather indicates a passing dream. Catchers come in different shapes, the most popular ones being circular. Some people prefer abstract shapes as long as the feather is there. The color is not a factor when designing a catcher.

Movement from the natural feather has allowed sculptors to exercise a bit of creativity. They have turned to metals like aluminum and copper among other popular ones used in manufacturing necklaces and pendants. Some of these feather images are concealed in ordinary bracelets and necklaces. Such concealing allows you to still adorn the catcher without being extra careful or conscious.

Before adorning catchers, they are taken to the local park in order to absorb the good charms from the environment. When transporting it to the park, use a cotton bag because it is soft and will not hurt the good spirits. Catchers used on the bed or in rooms should be kept away from the wall to enable them swing or move freely. Those for use on the body are hung around the neck.

Catchers come in different colors and shapes. Adding one to your life brings good fortunes and keeps away bad omen. It does not require extreme consciousness to work. Just having it on any part of your body is enough to bring you good fortunes. Ensure that you give it a unique twist for comfort purposes.
