Dreaming of a Table

table, dining table · mixed

A table set for a meal promises unions and prosperity; empty, broken or moving, it signals hardship and disagreement.

What happens in the dream

  • You set a table: happy unions and prosperity
  • You clear the table: pleasure will turn into trouble
  • You eat at a table with no cloth: an independent nature, unconcerned by others
  • A table moving mysteriously: dissatisfaction that drives you to seek change
  • A dirty tablecloth: disobedient children and quarrels after pleasure
  • A broken table: declining fortune
  • Someone standing or sitting on the table: indiscretions to get what they want
  • Table-rapping or spirit writing: your feelings toward friends will change and your fortune is at risk
  • Empty tables: poverty or disagreements

How you felt

  • A wish to share: the dream may reflect a desire to gather your people
  • Imbalance: it can mean something feels wobbly at home

Ask yourself

  • Whom would I like to gather around my table?
  • What is wobbling at home?
