If some teenage girl in Wichita puts a dream catcher over her night stand, how does that affect your use of dream catchers or the meaning that symbol has for you? Besides, as a non-believer you have already personally disavowed the spirituality that gave meaning to the symbol. You can't have it both ways.
Being an atheist says nothing about one's approach to spirituality. It only speaks to lack of belief in gods.
