Dough in a dream
In folk belief, dough in a dream means what is only just coming to be: a plan that grows under your hands.
Old dream books read dough as a beginning that is still taking shape, so the dream speaks of plans, learning and everything that has yet to get its face. In folk belief dough that rises nicely means progress and work that is getting better, and kneading means patience and strength in the hands. Soft, smooth dough is read as a good agreement, because it is easy to shape. People say dough needs a warm spot and a little peace, just like every good idea.
