What in the Hell is This Thing?
I call these wooden figures, "Dream Guardians". I make them out of fallen branches which I cut and shape to a point that the wood can stand on its own like a tripod. I paint the figure with acrylic paint and attempt to make it appear as natural/native as possible.
Then I meditate with it. The intention is to put an energy into it that will protect you from bad dreams. This figure I made for myself and imbued it with a "Water Elemental" spirit. I kept the figure near my bed for months. Whenever I would have a dream and it was about to get bad, there was always some body of water near that I could touch. Once I would touch the water, the bad thing would go away and the dream would continue on in a pleasant way.
If I get to a point where I am no longer homeless, I will make more of these guys.
Thanks for looking! Much Love!
