[1]Universal Landscape: The ability to articulate. The sense of taste.
Dreaming Lens: How was the tongue featured in the dream? Was it your tongue or the tongue of another person? Was the tongue human or animal? Was kissing part of the dream? Was the tongue attached to a person or detached from a mouth? Was the tissue living or dead? What was your visceral reaction to the tongue in the dream?
Personal Focus: The tongue’s ability to form different shapes inside the mouth endows human beings with an enormous catalog of sounds. This has allowed us to create one of our greatest assets—language. The tongue is symbolic of our innate human desire to be understood and relates to issues around communication. This can reflect everything from being soft spoken to possessing a sharp tongue. If communication is too passive, the speaker may be rendered ineffective. If it’s too pointed or overly direct, wounding can occur, often in opposition to the communicator’s intention.
A damaged tongue could indicate a need for you to examine how effective you are in this area. If your tongue is paralyzed, you may not be speaking powerfully enough to achieve your intentions in your waking life. In the world of crime, whether fictional or real, to have a tongue removed is a punishment for speaking out of turn, or revealing secret information. Dreaming of losing your tongue can relate to consequences of things you have said or wish to say in some situation.
The other primary meaning associated with the tongue relates to the physical sensations of taste and sensual pleasure. Consider that tasting food is erotic in nature and falls into the same category as do sexual acts. If eating is involved in your dream, the tongue relates to pleasure associated with self-care and abundant living. The ability to taste delicious food is a luxury, and if this interpretation feels right, the Dreaming Lens will inform you of your current relationship to this in your waking life.
The act of kissing with the tongue is extremely personal. If this is the focus of the dream, your interpretation must examine where in your life you are allowing or avoiding intimacy. Joining through the mouth is symbolic of two people exchanging and integrating communication skills. If you are kissing someone in a dream, use their Character Aspects to inform you of what traits you need to incorporate into your communication.
