Copying in a dream foretells that well-tried plans will go wrong.

What happens in the dream

  • You are copying: well-tried plans will work out badly
  • You copy a letter: partiality toward certain people will lead you into error

How you felt

  • A lack of originality: the dream may reflect a sense of following a template
  • Self-doubt: you may not trust your own voice enough

Ask yourself

  • Am I repeating patterns that no longer serve me?
