Bread is the basic nourishment: the daily life, the home, sharing and what sustains you. In many traditions it is also sacred.
When the dream feels light
Fresh bread promises abundance, family and the essentials secured.
When the dream feels dark
Mouldy or missing bread points to worries about material security or a lack of nourishment for the soul.
Ask yourself
What truly nourishes me?

The card of this dream
Six of Pentacles. Generosity, the scales of giving and receiving. A merchant weighs coins on a scale and gives alms to two kneeling beggars. It is generosity, giving and receiving, charity: balance between those who have and those who need.
