Dreaming of an Epicure

epicure, foodie, gourmand, gourmet · mixed

An epicure in a dream is about refinement: distinction or cultivated taste, but surrounded by selfishness.

What happens in the dream

  • You sit at table with an epicure: a fine distinction, but selfish people around you
  • You're an epicure yourself: you'll cultivate your mind, body and taste to a high polish
  • You try to satisfy an epicure: a partner who is distinguished but domineering toward you

How you felt

  • Pleasure: the dream may reflect a wish to treat yourself well
  • Pressure: you may be trying to satisfy someone very demanding

Ask yourself

  • Do I allow myself enough simple pleasures?
  • Is there someone I can never seem to satisfy?
