A History of ancient symbols : By Eve Warren This summer I have been researching ancient symbols and semiotics for a university brief. This symbol is my interpretation of the Native American symbol for dream catcher. According to Native Americans, dreams that humans have while they sleep, are sent by sacred spirits as messages.  According to their Legend, in the center of the Dream Catcher there is a hole.  Good dreams are permitted to reach the sleeper through this hole in the  web.  As for the bad dreams, the web traps them and they disappear at dawn with the first light.
