First of all, how pathetic is it that when you google "dreamcatcher" the first thing that comes up its from paris hilton's hair products??...*sigh*
Anyway...Dreams have always been something mysterious. You can have dreams you are almost certain were true, dreams that make you wake up craving for something, dreams that make you want to go back to sleep just to see if you can go back to that mysterious piece of imagination. They can mean so much, an escape from the real world, a search for answers, or a reminder of something you'd conciously wouldnt want to face. (and beleive me, I've been there. Having the same dream over and over until you say "ok, ok I'll face it!")
But not all dreams are pleasant...enter, dreamcatchers. As said in Dream-catchers.org:
Native Americans believe that the night air is filled with dreams both good and bad. The dream catcher when hung over or near your bed swinging freely in the air, catches the dreams as they flow by. The good dreams know how to pass through the dream catcher, slipping through the outer holes and slide down the soft feathers so gently that many times the sleeper does not know that he/she is dreaming. The bad dreams not knowing the way get tangled in the dream catcher and perish with the first light of the new day.So now...having the night free of bad dreams, I shall try to sleep.
May all of you have sweet dreams :)

Another short version
Dreams... what to say about dreams... some say they are part of an extensive organization system mind has to remain running... reality in raw... maybe the few moments conscious and unconscious mind is aware of its composition, interaction, that communication to fix (in many senses), to recall, to experience one last time before that single thought is kept in memory as another being... (not that this is not pleasant).
So many things are still a mystery speaking about mind... and probably they will stay that way for a long long time... Dreams and their meanings are part of the identity we assume each and every day... dreams being another reflection of reality we experience... Being awake does not mean not being dreaming... subconscious works in very very mysterious ways... So maybe all that dreams in the end become part of all those doubts we are looking to clear about what reality and how we may deal with it... What's real, a dream definitely is real... the body suffers all kind of senses during dreams, either good or bad ones... enough to be real... enough to really feel.
Dreams as you state form part of our reality... dreamcatcher... helps in the path through that reality... The patterns only can be crossed by those moments that will bring something meaningful into our lives... in the end... the dreamcatcher also resides in the mind... and there is where it true work begin...
Enjoy your dreams, mysterious realities to be-li[e]ve-d and may that may live forever...
