Beetroot soup
A deep red soup of beetroot — a winter dish whose colour is half the comfort.
Beetroot soup in a dream is the dream's image of a winter dish whose deep red colour is half the comfort. The soup is not subtle; it announces itself in the bowl. The dream brings the soup when something in your life — a family tradition, a piece of national or cultural comfort, a meal shared in a kitchen that smells of long roots — is being received in a form whose appearance is itself the welcome. A bowl of red soup served with cream stirred in is the dream affirming the inherited comfort. A bowl of the same soup received in a place where the tradition is not known, and being treated politely as a curiosity, is the dream noting that the meal is real and the context for receiving it has not arrived with it.
