Did you know....The Dream CatcherThe native North American dream catcher was used to help capture the unpleasant scary dreams, and allow only the good ones to come through. People continue this tradition today. The dream catcher was originally made through taking a thin branch, twisting it into a circular shape, threading through leather and beads, whilst hanging feathers below. The middle part of the dream catcher is often left open to let the good dreams pass through, while the rest of the dream catcher is shaped like a spider's web that is used to catch our bad dreams! |

Talking SticksDuring Native Indian ceremonies the talking stick was passed along to the person who was to be given the focus in the circle. Many times that person would tell a story, while sometimes they used this time to discuss issues and events happening in the community. Some storytellers have adapted this tradition and use the talking stick wherever they go, enjoying the history and lore surrounding this ancient tradition. Some storytellers even gather little bits of memorablia from their audiences, tying on bits and pieces of string and ornaments from different locations. |

The Medicine WheelThe medicine wheel has been used by Native North American people for centuries as a tool for learning and teaching. With each circle is four quadrants or areas. Many people know these as the four directions. The number four has a significant meaning for Native peoples. In the universe we have four directions (north, south, east, west), there are four seasons, four elements (fire, wind, water, air), four colours that make up the wheel (white in the north/winter quadrant, yellow in the spring/east quadrant, blue in the summer/red quadrant, and blue in the west/fall quadrant). Within the four elements and four directions it is believed that perfect harmony is created. |
