Description
Words from Cheryl:
Over fifteen years ago, I sat in a circle at the Dreaming Goddess and learned to weave my very first dream catcher. It was more than a craft—it was a remembering. It was a time when community pulsed strong, when women gathered to create, to heal, to witness each other. In that circle, we weren’t just learning techniques—we were reaching back through time, guided by the unseen hands of our ancestors and the stories they carried.
Most of us have heard the traditional story of how the dream catcher came to be, passed down through Native American traditions as a sacred tool for protecting the dreamtime. But over the years, I have come to know another layer of its magic—through the whispers of Grandmother Spider.
Grandmother Spider is the weaver of worlds, the keeper of stories, the spinner of sacred threads. She teaches us patience, intention, and the deep medicine of creation. To weave a dream catcher is to listen ~ to spirit, to the one it is being made for, to the wisdom that flows through your hands when you surrender to the sacred rhythm of thread and circle.
Many people now carry a piece of my art in their homes ~ a piece woven specifically for them, not rushed or mass-produced, but dreamed into being. Because to create something truly meaningful takes more than knowing how to wrap a hoop or tie knots. It takes presence. It takes reverence. It takes a willingness to become part of the web.
This class is not about credentials or spiritual résumés. I’ve studied many paths over the years, but none of that matters here. What matters is the call to create. Whether you are new to your spiritual journey or have been walking it for lifetimes, if this calls to your heart, you are welcome.
Come sit in the circle. Come create with the Grandmothers and with Spider Medicine. Come remember how to listen with your hands. Come be held in community once more.
You will leave with more than a dream catcher ~ you will leave with a deeper sense of yourself, your gifts, and the sacred web that connects us all.
