Dreaming of Writing

writing · mixed

Writing in a dream warns of a costly mistake, though writing a letter means a reunion.

What happens in the dream

  • Trying to read unfamiliar writing: avoid any new speculation if you want to escape your enemies
  • Writing a letter: absent friends are coming to visit; a love letter: your sweetheart will soon be back
  • You are writing: a mistake that nearly proves your undoing
  • Seeing writing: you'll be scolded for carelessness, and a lawsuit may embarrass you
  • Making a blot: a risk of illness

How you felt

  • A need for expression: the dream may reflect things you want to say
  • Fear of mistakes: you may be afraid of getting something wrong

Ask yourself

  • What do I need to put into words?
  • Who would I like to write to?
