Kachina Dolls are gifts given in hope of future abundance and health, as well as tools for education. The Kachina dolls of today's art market are a bridge between the spiritual world and mortals. Each year Kachinas come, they walk upon the earth and they dance to bring life and renewal. When the Kachinas return to the spirit world at the end of the planting, they return with prayers of the people that we might all continue on this earth for another round in the circle of life. There are more than 250 different Kachinas, each with its own separate attributes, representing everything from animals to abstract concepts. For over 2000 years the Native Americans of the Southwest have danced beneath the heavens, praying to the great spirits for rain and a bountiful harvest. These spirits are embodied by Kachinas, (ka chee`nas). Kachinas represent the spirits of created beings like the soaring eagle and the cunning wolf. During religious ceremonies, the Native Americans dress up in the elaborate costumes of Kachinas in a celebration of the harmony of creation.
