Roast in a dream
Folk tradition reads a roast in a dream as a great celebration, a full table and guests arriving from every side.
In folk belief a roast in a dream means a celebration: a wedding, the family feast day, a christening or the return of someone who has long been away. Old dream books tie it to plenty and a generous host, because a roast was never prepared for one person. A golden, fragrant roast is read as a success you will be proud of, carving it as a fair sharing of what you have. Folk belief holds that this dream smells of a holiday and goodwill.
