A critic in a dream is most often read as your own inner judge, weighing what you made and finding it short. It can also stand for fear of someone else’s verdict.

My Cosmic Code has a private dream journal. Write a dream down and the app picks out the symbols in it, shows what dream books say about them and, over time, which words recur across your entries. The journal is stored on your device only.
