Sharp New tattoo in dreams

A new tattoo in a dream is the dream's image of a deliberate, permanent statement still in the early phase of becoming part of you. Unlike a scar, the tattoo was chosen; unlike a fresh wound, it is intended to be there for the rest of the body's life. The dream brings the new tattoo when you have made a deliberate irreversible mark — a vow, a name, a public commitment — and are now in the period of feeling whether you can live with it. A new tattoo accepted with calm is the dream telling you the commitment is honest. A new tattoo already regretted is the dream noting that the permanent mark and the deliberate intention have come apart very early, and the cost of that gap is now to be paid.
