Cookies

You may be seeking reward and an extra dose of sweetness in your life. Cookies connect us symbolically to maternalistic nurturance, even if you didn’t come from a home where Mom and cookies were synonymous. We think of these sweet treats as something we get to have after a job well done. This dream may mean that you are seeking such accolades. Cookies can also represent the insidious power of excess; have one and you’re fine, but before you know it, having one can turn into having many. As with anything that is good in moderation, the dream world may be pointing out ways in which you are overdoing it.

Dreaming of sweet cookies suggests you give too much importance to frivolous and trivial matters: too much pleasure and little effort in life.

To bake cookies predicts a period of family disputes over trivial matters. It also predicts poor health. For a young woman, baking them signals that she is too worried about not finding the right partner. Eating them, however, suggests that bad times will soften with the support of family and friends. Taking them out from the oven invites the sleeper to have hopes.

Indulging in sweets. In general, the time for sweets is in childhood, but you are still enjoying sweets. Are you longing for your childhood? Do you wish to have the protection and care you had when you were a child? Is “sweetness” missing in your life? Maybe you should make more room in your life for security and childlike enjoyment? According to Freud, cookies with a smooth surface represent nakedness.

Folklore: Be careful in matters of love.
