Efua NyansaPorcupine quills are the sharp edges we hold up when we are afraid to be touched. When we strike out with biting speech, we often do so to protect a softness that we fear others might bruise. Such behavior is seen to create a wall of irritation that keeps even the most well-meaning kin from coming close to the heart.
This dream shows how the sharpness of your tongue can make your presence a source of discomfort for those who belong to you. When words are used as weapons of protection, they wound the very people you seek to keep safe. The way you defend yourself can become the reason for your isolation.
The sharpness of these defenses can be felt by those you love, child, and it makes the peace of the house fragile. There is a weight in the way a person turns away their own people with a prickly spirit. May you find the gentleness that allows your household to rest in your company.
The act of removing porcupine quills means that the malice of your words is being disarmed. By letting go of the need to strike out, you make it possible for the wounds you have caused to begin their healing.
For its more general meaning: Dream about a porcupine
Efua NyansaInterpreter interprets your dreams
Sit down first, child. The dream is not going anywhere. The elders used to say that a person is never read alone. Whoever stood beside you in the dream matters as much as what you saw, and the path behind you matters as much as the one ahead. Look, a dream with your people in it has already done half its work. May the name you were given keep you well.
