Monague Native Crafts Ltd. Product Stories and Legends

Dream Catchers

One of the most beautiful stories in American Indian Mythology. It is said that in the night air, there are good and bad dreams -- good dreams go through the loop's web into the one sleeping, while bad dreams become hopelessly tangled in the web... perishing in the first light of dawn.

Medicine Pouches

Traditional Medicine Pouches hold special protection medicine and/or amulets. Our pouches are handcrafted from the finest leather. They can be used for your enjoyment for either traditional or recreational purposes.

Medicine Wheels

The Medicine Wheel is an important symbol in Native culture. The circle represents the cycle of life in that all life travels in a circular path. The four spokes in the middle represent the four directions, the four colors of man and the four faces of man (physical, mental, emotional and spiritual). We hope this symbolic wheel will bring you good feelings and serve as a reminder that we are one with our world and need to look after our home -- Mother Earth.

Crystal Wands

Crystals have been used for many, many years to aid healing of the mind, body and spirit. They can be used to help sleep problems, headaches, re-align the chakras and even to ease those aches and pains we all get. Wands can be used within crystal healing, energy work, and as an aid to meditation. They are also incredibly beautiful pieces Relax so that you are in a peaceful state of mind without any antagonistic thoughts and your emotional and mental activity is tranquil.

Vision Seeker Dream Catcher

The dream catcher legend states that bad dreams become tangled in the web, while the good dreams and thoughts are allowed through. The quartz in the center of our "Vision Seekers" line of dream catcher is meant to increase the capacity for spiritual communication as the quartz acts to assist in removing negative thought forms. The stones in the web are meant to enhance spiritual communications. Vision Seeker dream catchers can be individually selected to match personalities or to compliment the spiritual path chosen by individuals.

Magical Dream Catcher

The unique selection of beads and colours adorning this beautiful item is what makes it "Magical". These beads serve to attract positive energy into your life. Choose the combination that most attracts and appeals to you, as the "Magic" is in synergy of your attraction.

Universal Magic

Our unique design of \"Universal Magic\" depicts how more and more people in the universe are seeking out the magic in life. There is much more recognition and appreciation of the meditative, healing and spiritual values of various elements. The crystal is universally recognized as a powerful spiritual conductor and is symbolically placed in the center of the universe in this unique product.

Wawa-Goose Dream Catcher

This product is made in honour of our brother the goose who is an indicator of seasonal changes by his migrating patterns. The goose is suspended inside the Dream Catcher to remind us that when we dream of geese or of birds we are to analyze changes that we may need to be making in our life path.

Turtle Island Dream Catcher

Legend tells that after the "Great Flood" the New Earth was re-built on the turtle's back using earth that only the muskrat could gather from the bottom of the remaining floodwaters. In many North American regions our "New Earth" is traditionally referred to as "Turtle Island" in memory of this legend.

Totem Dream Catchers

The animal fetish is positioned in this dream catcher to remind us of the strong connection to our animal brothers and sisters. It is their relationship to us that is often reflected in our dreams.

Spirit Chime Dream Catcher

Our Ancestors watch over us, and guide us through our life journey. This spirit chime dream catcher is a gentle reminder that our dreams are sacred, and our ancestors are our teachers in life. When the chimes ring, it is to remind us to pay respects to those who have travelled this path before us.

Spirit Chimes

This hand made shield has been inspired by memories of those that have passed before us. Our brothers and sisters of the animal world are remembered. The circle represents the precious cycle of life. The flint arrowhead and the tin cones honour our ancestors. When the chimes ring it is to remind us to pay our respects to those who have travelled this path before us.

Earth Mother Dream Catcher

This original piece of work embraces a very powerful message and concept. The circle and protective web around the "earth" symbolizes not only our human mother, but also our mother earth. The protective circle is contained within a larger circle depicting the young and the next to be born. The symbolic meaning reminds us of our inherent responsibility to Mother Earth, and that we pass this responsibility on to our children.

Man-del-la Good Luck Shields

Our series of hand-painted Mandella Good Luck Shields have been created in honour of our past, and our relationship with our animal brother and sisters. Traditionally, animals represented various things to various Nations, from physical characteristics and personal achievements, to family clans and groupings. We have adopted an eclectic approach to provide meaning behind each of our Shields... The Wolf is resourceful and patient, especially during difficult times. The Eagle represents Leadership. The eagle is highly honoured in all Nations. The Bear represents humililty as the bear quietly knows his strength but does not use it to overpower.

Dream Strand

This original dream strand is made of an agate peice that is characteristically unique, just like every person. The galss beads enhance the aura of the agate. the dream catcher dangling at the bottom of the strand will sift your dreams, catching negative dream thoughts and filtering through positive and calming dream thoughts. Choose the strand that best reminds you of the recipient you are purchasing for. Hang this dream strand where you sleep, meditate or where you contemplate things in your life.

Spirit Feathers

Feathers have a long history of symbolism in North American Native culture. In respect of this tradition we offer a selection of "Spirit Feathers" for your use as you travel on this life path. SF1-Healing Use this feather in prayer when seeking inner healing of your spirit. SF2-Magical This is a feather for those who love the magic of life and who are visionaries of the future making things happen! SF3-Reflection Use this feather in your daily meditations to call upon the four directions for wisdom and strength to assist in walking a good road.
