Mouth

Mouths, Open mouth

Your mouth is how you speak, eat, smile and kiss, so a dream that focuses on it is often about expression. What are you saying, and what are you holding back? A wide, happy smile means you feel free to be yourself. A mouth that won't open, or one taped shut, can come from times when you feel unheard or worry that your words will land badly. If something strange came out of your mouth, a thought you've kept inside may be asking to be spoken.

Dream variations

• Unable to open your mouthYou have something to say but feel blocked. Write it down first; the words will come more easily after that.
