Feast

A feast often touches anticipated joy and the company gathered for it — pleasant surprises planned, though disorder at the table can sour them. The dream may ask what celebration is being prepared for you, whether the gathering runs in harmony or falls into quarrel, and what new fellowship the shared abundance might bring.

What the old dream-books say

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

Ten Thousand Dreams Interpreted

To dream of a feast, foretells that pleasant surprises are being planned for you. To see disorder or misconduct at a feast, foretells quarrels or unhappiness through the negligence or sickness of some person.

To arrive late at a feast, denotes that vexing affairs will occupy you.

Fontaine, 1862

The Golden Wheel Dream-book

If you dream of feasting at a friend's house, or eating with him anywhere, it shows you will make a new acquaintance through his means. If a girl dreams this, it is a sign she will soon have a lover from that very house or place where she dreams of feasting.
