1- Since very few people now use fountain pens, the significance of ink on a physical level is no longer quite so valid. Formerly in dreams it suggested the ability to communicate in a lucid fashion. Il was also an instrument of ‘torture’ for children and would often appear in dreams in later life.

2- On a more intellectual level, ink signifies the ability to transcribe and understand knowledge in a more sophisticated way.

3- More spiritually, ink has significance, particularly in magical practices, when it was used to reflect powers which were outside the norm. In written magical spells it was necessary to use particular inks in order to achieve the required results.

Islamic Dream Interpretation

by Ibn Seerin
(Knowledge) In a dream, ink signifies honor, dignity and the rising of one’s star. Ifone’s shirt or garment are stained with ink in a dream, it means disgrace, though one will eventually overcome his adversities and regain his former status. Seeing a spotted garment with ink in a dream could mean leprosy, or perhaps that ink will soil one’s shirt as seen in one’s dream. Ink in a dream also signifies power and dominion. Writing with ink in a dream means strength and authority. Using ink or seeing someone using it in a dream means honor, rank, assisting others, and it may represent a learned person, or a religious scholar.
