• Can dreaming of a pen indicate issues with self-expression?

  Yes, dreaming of a pen can certainly highlight difficulties in self-expression. A pen represents your voice and the ability to articulate your thoughts.

Over time, this practice can significantly improve your ability to recall dreams.

It’s essential to approach dream interpretation with an open heart and mind, seeking deeper meanings.
