The answer to the question of why you dream about a table with food seems obvious: of course, to prosperity and profit. But not all dream books and not in all cases agree with this definition. There are stories where a richly set table is a warning of impending changes, and not necessarily pleasant ones. For a more accurate interpretation of such a “hospitable” image, it is necessary to take into account all the details seen in the dream.
What was on the menu?
If you dreamed of a table with food, it is advisable to remember which dishes predominated on the menu. This is what some of them dream about, according to dream books:
- meat dishes in a dream promise deliverance from problems and troubles;
- fish delicacies - to success, but if you learn to keep secrets;
- sweet products predict fun;
- seeing alcohol in a dream means unjustified risk and disappointment;
- soft drinks in a dream predict tears and resentment.
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.
“Stolovsky” food as a symbol of surprise
Grishina’s dream book, explaining why you dream of a lot of food on the table in a public canteen, recommends paying attention to how appetizing it looked.
If you dreamed of a lot of different dishes that are not typical for eating in a canteen, and a long line of people with trays full of pickles, then this indicates that someone will pleasantly surprise you.
And if you see in a dream that in the dining room after dinner there is a lot of untouched, unappetizing food left on the table, then you should not expect from people what they are not capable of. Accept your friends as they are, the Wanderer’s dream book recommends.
Interpretations of dream books
One of the most popular dream books is the work of the American psychologist Gustav Miller. According to her, a set table is a sign of successful circumstances and pleasant meetings with new people in the coming days or weeks. A good sign is money that was lying on the furniture. They prophesy to the dreamer success in freeing himself from difficulties. An empty table means disagreements and conflicts.
If a sleeping person sat down at a desk, he should be as careful as possible. Cleaning up after lunch or dinner means indifference and sadness. The search for change, caused by dissatisfaction with one’s life, is reported by various mysterious movements of dreamed furniture.
The absence of a tablecloth bodes well for those who are prone to envy: soon these dreamers will achieve prosperity and independence and will no longer be bothered by the triumphs of other people. If there was a tablecloth in the dream, but not whole, but torn, this means quarrels in the family. Broken tables represent decline and negative changes. It happens that sleeping people heard tapping on the table in their night dreams. This means changes in attitude towards comrades and a threat to fate. Neglecting loved ones will cause many losses.
The esoteric dream interpreter is convinced that looking at a richly laid table in a dream happens to those who are characterized by gluttony. A dirty piece of furniture with food leftovers means upcoming problems in the domestic sphere. Plastic and weak furniture is explained as material instability and uncertainty .
In contrast, strong tables signify confidence in life and wealth. Covering in a dream is a signal of visitors.
Grishina’s noble dream book offers dreamers the following meaning of the dreamed image: domestic joys, the owner of the house and marriage. Serving promises successful implementation of the plan. Marble tables are trying to warn against evil from impudent individuals. The round table is a sign of reconciliation with loved ones. The worker is interpreted as forces temporarily in the background or as a moral duty of a sleeping person that cannot be evaded. If the dreamer notices flowers on a dreamed piece of furniture, happiness awaits him in marriage and family life.
Home cooking is a sign of acquiring connections
The interpretation of the dream offered by Pastor Loff's dream book, in which you cover the dining table with a white tablecloth and sit down to dinner, prophesies the following: very soon you will find yourself in a company that you have long dreamed of becoming a member of. Did you dream that you were having a leisurely conversation at lunch? You can rest assured that you will easily gain authority among your new friends.
Serving dinner in a dream, but not participating in it yourself is a sign that you cannot achieve your goal because you do not have a patron. But setting dinner and sitting at the head of the table is a positive sign: you will be able to make not only connections, but you will also gain a reputation as a person who can help in difficult times.
Other appearance details
No less important details that it is advisable to remember in order to obtain extremely accurate interpretations of the dream are the shape of the table, as well as its size, color and condition:
- Round furniture most often indicates that the dreamer may be preparing to receive guests. The event will probably be in honor of some holiday. According to another version, now is the best time to agree on something with a lover, friend or boss. However, reaching a compromise will require paying attention to the other person's opinion.
- The long table warns that you should not count on a quick and easy solution to controversial situations.
- Rectangular or square means that it is necessary to carefully analyze the dreamer’s current issues and take into account all the nuances to achieve a positive result.
- Small furniture is a hint about the unimportance of upcoming meetings. There is no need to attach great importance to them and waste time and energy on them.
- Large tables promise sleeping people a discussion of important matters, projects and events.
- An old table can be a subconscious reminder of old friends with whom the connection has been completely lost or the dreamer has not seen for a long time. At the same time, it makes sense to reconsider priorities and plans. Most likely, the sleeper does not have enough courage to leave an already unnecessary idea in the past.
- The novelty of an interior item predicts new business acquaintances and proposals.
- If the table was wooden, the dreamer will expect a decent income. But the realization of this prophecy is possible only through the efforts made.
The black table warns about meeting dishonest partners. White color symbolizes good work, which the dreamer began in reality. Dream books advise you to definitely complete this matter. In contrast to white, a dirty table is considered a STOP sign. It is best to forget about your current plans, because they can bring a lot of problems and will definitely not become a source of profit.
Holiday Abundance: From Riches to Needs
If you want to understand what a dream predicts of a festive table with food that amazes the eye with sophistication, then by looking for information in Miss Hasse’s dream book, you will find out: a huge fortune will soon “fall” on you, and you won’t put much effort into it.
But, not quite a festive event, but also crowded - a memorial feast, in honor of, for example, a deceased grandfather - a signal that if you want to change your life, then it’s time to stop clinging to the past. Sitting at a table with food in a dream, sad, means you will have to fight the need; and if you sat at the wake, like at a wedding, then everything will turn out well.
A few more versions
As a rule, each dream interpreter uniquely interprets any dream (although at some points the interpretations may be identical). Among the most popular dream books are the following:
- Vanga's prophecies. According to her dream book, sitting at the table without food with family members is a reflection of luck, especially if the dreamer’s company was the dead. And if the sleeper was alone, he may be preparing for a difficult choice, which in any case will end in the loss of something. For an invitation to a holiday, see the dining table. New furniture advises those who saw it in a dream to take decisive steps. The absence of any things on the furniture means a feeling of loneliness among people, while their presence indicates probable quarrels.
- Dream book for lovers. Wiping the table, clearing away the plates means indifference, which will replace love for the dreamer. But a beautifully set table promises love and other pleasures. A torn tablecloth symbolizes disagreement and conflict.
- Dream interpreter Denise Lynn believes that this image signifies the revelation of secret intentions. According to another version, the dreamer may hide his plans and feelings and postpone making decisions.
- Gypsy dream book. An empty workplace signals the need to renew hobbies and interests. Papers or books hint to the dreamer the need to rethink life values and the organization of all areas of life.
- Hasse's dream book promises those sleeping the acquisition of knowledge.
- Mayan dream interpreter. Positive meaning: dreams of table setting for a party. In order not to wait long for an invitation, it is recommended to sprinkle ground coffee, pepper and salt on all home tables. Negative interpretation: cleaning promises betrayal. However, it can be avoided by eating unusually (on the couch or standing) for a week after waking up.
- Eastern women's dream book. If there were people sitting at the table, but there was no food, it meant a quick funeral. Dreams of many dishes and drinks on the eve of achievements. If the table was made of bare, unplaned boards and not covered with a tablecloth - to the deceased.
Dreams are amazing and varied. Often men and women dream of tables familiar in everyday life: empty or richly set, desks or operating tables, across which people stretch or walk. The interpretation of each dream depends on the details of the plot and the dream book. The main thing that every dreamer who is looking for the meaning of a night dream needs to remember is that prophecies can be good and bad. But do not be afraid if the dream interpreter does not foretell a happy ending, because everything is in the hands of a person.
Leftovers, or Learn to Trust and Make Concessions
Explaining why you dream of a luxurious buffet with food, but upon closer examination it turns out to be spoiled, then be prepared for disappointment, predicts the Lunar Dream Book. Seeing a large number of scraps in a dream or picking them up and sniffing them is a sign of distrust.
But this is what you dream of about a buffet with enemies, the menu of which includes dishes unsuitable for eating, according to the Eastern Dream Book: you cannot reach a consensus with your opponent because both do not want to compromise.
All kinds of actions
The feast is considered the most popular of a large number of plots. Night dreams are unique and varied, just like those who see them. For example, some people find themselves hiding under a table in a dream (this is a sign of new opportunities). Other options:
- Dancing furniture and other strange movements are a symbol of strong dissatisfaction in the near future.
- Drinking tea at an empty table is a sign of disappointment or advice to fill the present and future with confidence, while leaving failures behind.
- Lying on a piece of furniture means successfully overcoming a difficult situation.
- Having breakfast or dinner together with a real acquaintance is a reason to tune in to improve your relationship with him. Reconciliation awaits the dreamer and the dream guest if they quarrel.
- Sitting at the table in a dream and at the same time observing the dishes means success in any endeavor.
- Eating alone usually brings financial losses or deterioration in health.
- Walking on the table indicates impending chaos in all aspects of life.
If a sleeping person had to simply stand on a piece of furniture, in reality he feels permissiveness and impunity. Equally, this may mean that the dreamer will be able to control a difficult situation.
