To imagine is to dream while you are awake.  No longer limited to dreaming while you sleep you dream consciously and constantly.  Each moment of your life, sissagwaad, the soft wind of spirit, can teach you and guide your footsteps.  Open your eyes as you open your heart and you will walk in your dreams, day or night.  Come, soar with the White Eagle, accept your natural heritage. 

Many magical things happened in July and August.  Stores in Amsterdam, Hannover, Hamburg, Berlin, Nuremberg, Vienna, Klagenfurt, Villach, Zurich, and Lüchingen bought Dream-Catchers or books.  Sylvie's former boyfriend loaned us his camper for 3 weeks.  It was great camping by the canal in old Amsterdam, at the harbor in Hamburg, in the suburbs of Berlin, in a quiet country lane, atop a hill overlooking fields and villages all around just like in Sound of Music The sound of the river tumbling down the hillside before entering the Keutschacher See could be heard from the home of the Schrott family across the valley...  

I had met Sylvia at the same powwow.  While in Boston seeking medical help for her son, she saw a flyer about the Harvest Moon Powwow and knew that somehow she must go there.  She smelled the sage I was burning, saw the beauty of these Dream-Catchers, and asked about the stories.  That evening, she came to my tent to ask if I would teach her how to weave Dream-Catchers.  I thought to myself that this woman had come from Austria and now was asking me to teach her.  I could not refuse, the sissagwaad told me.  Later, she wrote, I responded, and we, too, became friends.  She invited me to come to Austria in the summer, early enough so that I could teach her students and earn my travel expenses.

Her son Martin and his friends were inspired by the Dream-Catchers to write a song about the Dream-Catcher that they called the "Dream Catcher in the Sky."

That summer I wove the Dream-Catcher called, "Imagine." It named itself and told me its story.

Bawaudjigaeaun wae-ondji manitouwiyaun. In Ojibwe this means, "To dreams I owe the mystery."
