Dreamingly

Dreamcatchers are not actually meant to worship dreams. They relate to spider woman wanting to reach her children and protect them, so the patterns of the web remind us we’re all interconnected and under her protection. Their original word is asabikeshiinh, which relates more to spiders than dreams. (All of this is from wikipedia/memory, so please correct me if I’m wrong on exact specifics)

You’re literally using the culturally appropriated version of dream catchers, tying it to hippies, removing it from what it was actually intended for. Unless she’s Ojibwe-coded, or from a neighbouring region, she’s appropriating. And if she’s using it to worship dreams, she’s misusing it.

Come up with something else for this dream worshiping magic. Build something based off this culture, this situation, this character. Don’t go taking what you think fits from an Indigenous culture without realizing the full story of what it means.

We are not just some hippy magical group. Don’t go using our sacred symbols for things you made up meaning for. Make up something yourself.
