Winter Solstice Blackthorn Dream Walker (DW060)

This wonderful Dream Walker wears a woven cloak and a silk scarf. It is wrapped with natural elm bark and carries a medicine bag filled with dried rowan berries and a protective blend of dried herbs and plants from folklore, which are traditionally considered to aid in protection and sleep.

The Dream Walker is newly carved from beautifully warm-coloured blackthorn wood gathered at the time of the Winter Solstice. The eyes are finished with garnets.

The figure is perfect to watch over you as you sleep - simply place it on a surface near your bed. It is incredibly tactile, so is also good to gently hold during meditation or for ritual use. For carrying in a pocket or placing beneath a pillow, we recommend popping the figure into a small protective bag.

The Dream Walker is filled with more of our protective herb blend, which includes herbs respectfully gathered from the land surrounding the sacred site of Stonehenge. The herbs are sealed inside with a plug of heather.

Infused with the energies of this potent ancient herb blend, it will make an excellent companion to aid you on your dream journeys.

A bindrune for protection, love, or ancestral connection can be added to the base for no extra charge. Please add a note to the message box during checkout (or simply email [email protected]) to request this.

General information
Similar to the Tree Spirit figures, Kindred Spirits, and Hag Spirits, these are our smaller Dream Walker figures. They are based on the prehistoric anthropomorphic figures found in Britain and Europe during archaeological excavations. Many of the originals reside in museum collections. These figures are Spirit of Old's take on what prehistoric people were making and using in the area, and an interpretation of their spirituality - an ancient idea brought forward for use in modern witchcraft.

The Dream Walkers have a defined purpose: protection during sleep. Each figure is created specifically with this in mind, and they are crafted from carefully gathered, earthy materials sourced locally. The main wood of each Dream Walker is selected from a variety including yew root, hazel and blackthorn from the Stonehenge area, and also from British bog oak from Suffolk, dated to the the Iron Age, so just over two thousand years old. Some, though not all, of the figures are free-standing.

Crafted with real Celtic soul.
