Dream Catchers & Their Colors: What Do They Mean?
Join us at the several libraries in Lafayette County. Open to the Public and all ages!
More than just boho decor, dream catchers are rooted in Native American tradition—woven to protect sleepers from bad dreams and let the good ones flow through. But did you know the colors you choose carry powerful meanings?
Color Symbolism in Dream Catchers 
Red – Passion, courage, and energy. Perfect for igniting motivation and love. 
Blue – Peace, calm, and clarity. Ideal for restful sleep and emotional healing. 
Green – Growth, renewal, and balance. A grounding choice for fresh starts. 
Yellow – Joy, optimism, and creativity. Brighten your space and your spirit. 
White – Purity, protection, and spiritual connection. A classic for cleansing energy. 
Purple – Intuition, wisdom, and mystery. Great for enhancing dreams and insight. 
Black – Strength, resilience, and transformation. A bold protector of your space.
Whether you’re crafting your own or choosing one that speaks to you, let the colors guide your intentions and energy.
