In common knowledge many of the First People believe that dream catchers will
catch and contain any good dreams that one experiences during sleep. The good
dreams are caught in the web and the bad ones slip through and leave.
There are those among the First People who believe that ideas, both good and
bad, are included amongst those things which are affected by the catcher.
There are a lot of things we can learn from those who came first
just my 2 cents
