Cooking
Cook, Making dinner, Preparing food
When you cook in a dream, you're turning raw ingredients into something that nourishes, and that's often what you're doing in waking life too. A project, a friendship or a skill may be coming together under your hands. Cooking for others is a sign of care and a wish to bring people close. A dish that burns or won't turn out can mean you're rushing or juggling too much. Following a recipe step by step reflects a wish for clear guidance.
