Flour in a dream
Folk tradition reads flour in a dream as plenty, a full granary and the start of every good thing kneaded at home.
In folk belief flour in a dream is a sign that the house will lack nothing. Old dream books tie it to the watermill, grain and hardworking hands, because both bread and cake begin with flour. Fine white flour is read as clean work and honest effort, a sack of flour as peace of mind for the days ahead. Floury hands are read as the mark of a good householder who does not shy away from work. The dream is a calm one and announces order in the home.

Dreaming of a full sack of flour
It is read as peace of mind and a full pantry. It is believed you will have enough for everything you have planned, and a little over.
Dreaming of sifting flour

Dreaming of spilled flour
