This Storm Pattern taken from a Navajo rug has been open to many interpretations. I like the sacred: that the central rectangle (center back) represents the Navajo hogan and the rectangles in each corner (front & back) represent the four sacred mountains of Navajo legend. The connecting lines between the central figure and the corner images represent lightning blots carrying blessings between the mountains and the hogan.

This design was taken from woven embrodered mantas or shawls which were worn wrapped as a dress or kilt. The design is clouds and rain. Pueblo People believe that at death the guardian spiirit and soul of the most virtuous enter the rainmaker's world ad come back to visit an d watch over the Pueblos in the form of clouds.
