Cornmeal

Cornmeal often touches the humble staple ground from harvest — basic nourishment, and the fulfilment of long-held wishes. The dream may ask what ardent desire feels close to being met, and whether, in feeding yourself, you might unwittingly be laying obstacles across the very path you're trying to advance.

What the old dream-books say

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for cornmeal, 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

To see cornmeal, foretells the consummation of ardent wishes. To eat it made into bread, denotes that you will unwittingly throw obstructions in the way of your own advancement.
