- General interpretation of sleep
- Dependence on gender Women
- To a man
- Freud's Dream Book
The table is the basis of family life. What is located on the table in a dream shows the sleeping person’s standard of living, well-being, and future promising directions. Decoding the dream largely depends on the type of table and the actions of the dreamer.
Gender dependent
To a woman
A dream in which a woman sees a table set for dinner indicates an early acquaintance with an interesting man. Empty tables dream of quarrels and disagreements in the family.
Wipe the countertop from dirt in a dream - the joy and happiness that a woman recently experienced will be replaced by indifference and sadness.
To a man
If in a dream a man dines at a table without a tablecloth, it means that in real life he will achieve material well-being. A torn tablecloth promises the dreamer a quarrel with his wife based on jealousy.
A dream in which a man taps on a tabletop denotes a quarrel with close friends. The man will reconsider his attitude towards them and stop communicating. Over time, the severance of friendships will lead to loneliness.
Cover and clean up
Miller describes in detail why such a plot occurs in dreams. According to this source, setting the table for guests means a visit from relatives or friends in reality. Miller's dream book promises that a friendly visit will bring many joyful moments. Serving a long festive table is a sign of a joyful meeting with a loved one. And he will come from afar. Grishin also describes why a similar plot is dreamed of in his interpreter. According to Grishina’s dream book, a large table with food promises well-being and all kinds of success. You can achieve fame and material well-being. Good times are coming very soon! Putting away the dishes and washing them means going through a hectic and joyless period of life. If, as a result of your labors, all the dishes were removed in a dream, then the “black streak” will drag on. The universal dream book recommends not to despair, but, on the contrary, to pull yourself together as much as possible and solve all problems. Wiping a surface with a rag in a dream means drastic changes, as well as serious financial difficulties. Proper budget allocation will help you avoid complete collapse. Don't waste your money. You'll need them soon.
Interpretation of sleep by the type of table
You can give a detailed interpretation to a dream if you take into account the type of table.
- Covered - some agreements with colleagues will be of help to the sleeper in the future. A person will be able to take advantage of the advice of wiser colleagues, learn from their experience and actively engage in the development of his life.
- Round - the sleeper will not be able to hide one secret. Perhaps in the past the dreamer made some mistake, which he has been carefully hiding for many years. However, soon the secret will become clear.
- Dirty - problems at work are expected due to systematic violations of labor instructions. The sleeper will not be able to shift responsibility to someone else and he will have to answer for his actions.
- Long - the dream warns that you should not throw out your emotions on loved ones, this can lead to serious conflicts.
- Wooden - the dreamer will soon meet a wise man. The sleeper will be able to learn from him a lot of new information regarding his activities.
- New - the dream indicates hidden competition. Perhaps someone is very jealous of the sleeping person and is trying with all his might to set him up. A person should take a close look at his surroundings; ill-wishers may be nearby.
- Big - it’s time to say goodbye to the painful one. To feel happy again, the dreamer needs to relive the sad moments of life again and mentally let them go.
- Festive - the dream symbolizes the dreamer’s passionate, but at the same time, hot-tempered character. The person relates to his surroundings with the same passion and openness and often thinks that he is underestimated.
- Wedding - a person expects success in business and in any endeavor in general. For a young girl, such a dream foreshadows a quick marriage.
- Funeral - difficult trials await the dreamer in the future. He will try to earn the respect of management and colleagues, but instead he will begin to work hard and tirelessly.
- Rich - a meeting with an interesting person is expected. After waking up, it is worth remembering what dishes were served to the table. If the food was exotic, it means that in reality the person will meet a colleague from another country.
- Empty - the sleeper cannot realize himself fully. He always lacks something to be happy.
Reference! The most positive interpretations come from dreams in which the sleeper sees a wooden, rich, good-quality table. Such dreams symbolize luxury, happiness, success, good luck.
Quantity: many or one?
A dream in which a person sees one table standing in the middle of the room symbolizes the feelings of the sleeper at that moment in life. Perhaps in reality the dreamer feels lonely among people and cannot make new friends. To correct this problem, a person should attend more different events and try to maintain communication with former colleagues (classmates, co-workers).
Many laid tables are a favorable symbol that portends wealth and prosperity to the sleeper.
What did you do with the table in your dream?
The dreamer's actions in a dream are directly related to the decoding of the dream.
- Buy - in real life a person will have to ask friends for help.
- Wiping - strange events will begin to happen in the life of the sleeper. These could be conversations between friends, from which the dreamer learns a lot of unpleasant things about himself.
- Wash - to negative changes in life. A person may suddenly become ill or lose his job. In any case, don’t be upset; everything that doesn’t get done is for the better.
- Serving will give you a reason to gather the whole family together and celebrate a joyful event. Perhaps one of the relatives will announce a new addition to the family or a wedding.
- To clean up - the dreamer will be offered a seemingly profitable deal, by concluding which he will receive a large sum of money. However, you should not believe this, most likely the gain will be insignificant.
- Sitting - feeling depressed and afraid due to a conflict situation with an influential person.
- Lying down means getting into an unpleasant situation that will completely absorb the dreamer. It may be a job done incorrectly.
- Cover up - a person wants to dramatically change his life, but it’s not worth doing this yet. Unfortunately, expectations will be far from reality.
- Standing - the dreamer is trying to get ahead among competitors, but he will not be able to do this.
Important! The table in a dream and in life symbolizes “God’s palm.” All negative actions in a dream regarding a table are equated to negative meanings.
Who's at the table?
A dream in which they were sitting at the table:
- Man - to the appearance of a new male family member in the house. Such a dream foreshadows a girl’s marriage or the birth of a son.
- Guests - such a dream indicates that a person should not blindly trust everyone. This may lead to deception.
- There are many people - peace and harmony will reign in the family. Relatives will begin to support each other and help in everything.
- Deceased relatives - the sleeping person’s life position will not be stable. Over time, problems will appear in relationships and with money.
- A deceased grandmother means a prosperous old age.
- The deceased father means the dreamer’s life is under threat. Perhaps the deceased father of the sleeping person wants to warn him against a dangerous mistake, so you should take a closer look and listen to his actions.
Subconscious
At the subconscious level, this image can personify your body, physical or spiritual state. If you dream that the table's leg was broken, it means that not everything is all right with you. You are probably suffering from nervous exhaustion, feeling low on energy and ready to sink into depression.
If you sit at the table and see that there is nothing on it, you are actually disappointed in life. Your hopes may not have come true. Lying on it is a sign that you need to make a difficult decision. You consider your possible actions in order to make the right choice. Hiding under it means in reality you are trying to close yourself off from the world around you, because you are afraid of possible pain and disappointment.
Types of tables
To see a dressing table or dressing table in a dream - the dream symbolizes a person’s intentions, which in the future will turn out to be promising and successful.
Looking at the table in the bathroom means being carried away by unimportant undertakings.
Cleaning up scattered papers on a desk or desktop means losing track of an important task. To return to its solution will require a lot of effort.
Lying on the operating table means a serious conflict with work partners or major financial losses. The dreamer's business is under threat and needs to be saved immediately.
Cooking on the kitchen table means becoming a rich and successful person.

- The bedside table is a useless distraction.
- Magazine - minor difficulties.
- Written – unsuccessful cooperation.
- Worker - unforeseen decline, problems.
- Restaurant - quarrel, separation for no reason.

Serving
What does the future promise if you see cutlery? Table setting symbolizes empty hopes. The dreamer in reality dreams of the impossible. If the table is set by strangers, expect an invitation to visit in the near future.
Was the emphasis placed on cutlery, namely the knife? Past failures do not allow you to meet people and build a personal life. Perhaps you simply do not trust others because of old grievances.
