Pencil Dream Interpretation

Universal Landscape: Communication that is changeable or impermanent.

Dreaming Lens: Were you using a pencil or was someone else using it? Were you in need of one and motivated by that need? What was the proposed or actual use of the pencil? Was it used for artistic expression, writing, or accounting? Was it a No. 2 pencil? Was it oversized or small? Did it have an eraser?

Personal Focus: A pencil symbolically connects with communication issues. The fact that pencil is erasable adds an element of impermanence to the meaning and, therefore, a lack of commitment. By varying the pressure applied with a pencil, you can create different shades of gray, which implies a level of subtlety and textural meaning to the communication represented by this symbol in a dream. The Dreaming Lens should help inform what direction you should take with your interpretation.

If you are using a pencil so that errors can be fixed, you may be dreaming about a desire to undo something not aligned with your original intention. Look to areas in your life where you are struggling to be clear and accurate. Also consider your integrity with regard to recent communication. With a pencil, you can erase a statement you wish you hadn’t made. A pencil without an eraser reflects reluctance to commit or be held accountable for what you need to express.

Pencils used for artistic expression connect to creativity in an organic and simple form. Such a tool is easy to obtain and likely to be within your reach. There may be creativity wanting to emerge from you and your access to it may be as simple as picking up a pencil. There is also a sense of freedom associated with using a pencil. Since it isn’t permanent, you can be free to let yourself go with your expression as you can always correct something or re-do it.
