The bad dreams do not know the way and get tangled in the dream catcher to disappear with the first light of the new day.
The good dreams know how to pass through the dream catcher, slipping through the outer holes and slide down the soft feathers. The dream catcher when hung over or near your bed swinging freely in the air catches the dreams as they float by. Native Americans believe that the night air is filled with dreams both good and bad.
