Dream of Cooking

Dreaming of cooking is considered a very positive omen symbolizing nourishing some aspect of your mind, body and soul.

What the dreamer might not know is that cooking in you dream suggests that this has been something you have been preparing for in the past and now it’s time to obtain the rewards.

The interesting part about cooking is not really cooking itself but the oven/stove that is used to cook on. In dreams the oven is a powerful symbol that connects to the womb or motherhood; a metaphor suggesting once nourished the dreamer will be reborn again.

Remember there is a hidden element to whatever you cook in your dream  as it points to the specific area of transformation and growth.

Spiritual meaning of cooking dreams

The average dreamer doesn’t really understand the importance of food in dreams, but this highly symbolic image connects us with the phyical,  emotional strengths and hidden energies. Essentially you are fulfilling parts of yourself that are unconscious to you. But what exactly could this be?

Spiritually speaking cooking food in dreams reflects a healthier lifestyle, boost your energy, stabilize the mind-body connection, and improve your stress and creative power.

Cooking also connects with family and bringing people together in your life. In essence you are expanding your world and bringing people close to you. To dream of someone else cooking it suggests you will receive the right help from someone that will make you feel nurtured and successful. If you are just seeing cooking pots in your dream it represents feelings about preparing food and what you put into it or fail to give of yourself.
