Strength from the Facial Tattoo...

At one point in my dream, I was tattooing Dan and myself. I was tattooing our faces. I did his first. It was more like painting with a long, rigid needle brush. I was "painting/tattooing" his face by tapping my needles on his face. His face was almost entirely covered in ink so I couldn't see where the ink got in and where it was just superficial. He was simultaneously my friends from early years - Kate, Jayne, Susy.
I tattooed myself in the same manner, tapping the needle stick on my face and gaining immense, dark coverage with the ink, but not necessarily permanently in the skin. I felt savage doing such a thing and about halfway through, I got a feeling of familiar dream panic - Ordinarily, I would ask myself, "What am I doing? What have I done? I can't undo this!" But this time, instead of feeling regret or fear, I accepted that I now had to finish what I started, and just kept going.
When I was done, Dan washed the ink off his face. I got a close-up look of how much ink stayed in. It was almost none. There were a few little dots - smaller than pores. Curious about my own, I washed off the ink. As I removed the dark layer, I discovered that much of the ink didn't stay, except for a couple of dark stripes under my left eye and up my left temple.
I felt changed somehow, like I had adopted a new spirit. I loved the feeling of being strong and willful and unafraid of the choices I had made. Ordinarily, when I have facial tattoo dreams, or other dreams wherein I wind up with tattoos, they are traumatic and terrifying.
