Cooking Stove

A cooking stove — the steady source of household heat — often touches your capacity to warm and tend a home, and the timing of when you step in. The dream may ask where your intervention smooths things over, and whether you risk showing your appreciation too hastily and cooling a closeness you valued.

Miller 1901

What the old dream-books say

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for cooking stove, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.

Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901

Ten Thousand Dreams Interpreted
