娱乐性解釋/意思：
It is good to dream of a banquet. Friends will wait to do you favors. To dream of yourself, together with many gaily-attired guests, eating from costly plate and drinking wine of fabulous price and age, foretells enormous gain in enterprises of every nature, and happiness among friends. To see inharmonious influences, strange and grotesque faces or empty tables, is ominous of grave misunderstandings or disappointments.
