What Does Giving a Homemade Blanket as a Gift Mean?

The Meaning Of Giving A Blanket As A Gift

Throughout the centuries, the gift of a homemade blanket has been associated with feelings of warmth, respect and kindness from those giving a blanket towards those receiving it. Our article below covers just a few of the aspects that come to mind when we give a blanket as a gift or even when we dream about blankets in a dream or see one in a vision of sorts.

Blankets In First Nation Connotations

Giving a blanket as a gift to someone represents respect, admiration and honor for an individual.

Depending on their particular first nation identity, such as the Dakota or the Sioux, or specific tribes within a first nation, the blanket may mean something different from one national identity to another. Moreover, they may be given during different times for various reasons.

For instance, a respected Teton Sioux elder may choose to wrap a wool blanket around a younger person or child that he considers his spiritual son or “spirit son.” If this act is done publicly, it’s all the more meaningful and then takes on a status of adoption with others in the tribal family or community.

As a “spirit father,” the child is loved, recognized, appreciated and rewarded by the wisdom of his spiritual father. In other words, the spirit of the father transfers to the younger, who then passes it on to perhaps a misunderstood child later on in life. Essentially, with the mere laying of a blanket on the shoulders of someone, the family and tribe grow and expand in their sphere of influence.
