Baker
A maker of bread — a craftsperson whose work ends every day with something the town has to have.
A baker in a dream is the dream's image of a craftsperson whose work ends every day with something the town has to have. The bread does not improve on the second day; the baker has to be at the oven before the town is awake. The dream brings the baker when something in your life — a daily creative practice, a service everyone depends on without praising, a quiet early discipline — is being maintained by waking up and starting again before anyone else does. A baker with the loaves ready by morning is the dream affirming the steady early work. A baker who has overslept and the shop opening with empty shelves is the dream noting that the early discipline was missed this morning, and the town will go to other kitchens.
