Group Interpreting Anna's Red Lipstick + Pasta dream
101 Plays2 months ago
This is Episode 16 of season 3.
In this episode we hear a group interpretation of Anna’s dream about serving food in a restaurant and wearing red lipstick. This episode gives you a small window into the twice-monthly membership calls, with this interpretation snippet taken from the last call.
The topic of the call began delving into the controversy of “mundane” dreams and how easy it is to disregard them. However, these more mundane, less spectacular dreams are often packed with pure communication from the Father. Just like finding Jesus in the day to day routines of life is the foundation of relationship with him, perhaps the night to night mundane dreams are the foundation of our dream like with him.
Anna’s mundane, ordinary dream turns out to be anything but. It turns out to be a destiny dream speaking directly to a question of her heart.

Introduction to Divine Wisdom & Faith
00:00:00
Speaker
We were designed to hunger for the deep things of God, to thrive on faith and wonder, to seek out divine wisdom that defies human logic. We were designed to unlock the mysteries of God.
00:00:14
Speaker
This is Breathing Underwater.
Episode & Host Introduction
00:00:30
Speaker
ah Welcome to episode 16 of season three. This is Breathing Underwater. My name is Margo. I'm your host. Today, I'm excited to share something with you. i have a membership call that I do twice a month. I have two different groups. I have a group that's in Australia.
00:00:47
Speaker
I have a group that is US and Europe call because of the time zones.
Group Dream Interpretation for Anna
00:00:53
Speaker
And just this last call I had with my US and Europe group, we had some of the most anointed discussions. And we also had some really fun and fruitful interpretations come out. And I thought, you know what, I want to share this on the podcast. So today you're going a group interpretation for one of our members named Anna. Anna.
00:01:16
Speaker
I thought it would be fun to hear how we do this in a group. You often will hear me interpret on my own on the podcast or with the dreamer, but I find that it's actually really powerful to have a group of people who are all giving insight because everyone picks up something a little bit different from your dream. And this is one of the things that I think is so beneficial about the membership is that we are building community We've been going for, i guess, a year and a half now.
00:01:43
Speaker
The same people have been getting to know each other and in deeper ways. We've had some people come, we've had some people go, we've had new members join, but we've really been building community and actually going somewhere deeper together in
Upcoming Episode Snippets
00:01:57
Speaker
the spirit. And there's this richness that comes with a myriad of counselors.
00:02:02
Speaker
So
00:02:05
Speaker
The next three episodes or so are going to share a little bit of the snippets from this particular call, just to give you a little flavor. And also because I really felt that God was um anointing the conversations and even the time of interpretation. Listen, he always is.
00:02:21
Speaker
He always is on these calls. He always is. But there was something special about this
Exploring Anna's Dream Symbolism
00:02:26
Speaker
one. And especially the next episode, we're going to jump into um just some real life discussion about what it means to walk with God, especially in the dry seasons and how to actually renew our minds and still stay meditating on the truth when circumstances seem so backwards.
00:02:43
Speaker
Just some real talk from real people who are connected to Jesus, connected to the Holy Spirit and trying to live in faith. So you're in for a treat these next three episodes. But today in particular, we are going to share Anna's dream with all of you.
00:02:59
Speaker
And we in this group, we had a small group this day, ah were all interpreting for her. And the topic just so happened to be at kind of the beginning of this call was we were talking about those dreams that feel a little bit more mundane.
00:03:14
Speaker
Meaning they're not the ones where you wake up and go, oh, that was that was a God dream. I should write that down. We love those kinds of dreams. But we're talking about the dreams that seem like it would be easy to just push it aside and think maybe there wasn't something especially special happening in it.
00:03:31
Speaker
At one point, one of the members made a joke like, You know, those kind of dreams where there's a guy and he's holding a coconut and it seems like, what's going on? And I piped in and I said, listen, coconuts are actually really symbolic, which they are.
00:03:45
Speaker
so it was this perfect ah kind of example of how easy it is for us to think that dreams are more mundane when the romantic emotion isn't there when you're not overwhelmingly feeling the presence of God.
00:04:00
Speaker
But isn't that just like relationship with God? Not every day, all day is that overwhelming emotional connection, even though i believe that's what we're built for and that we will really experience someday.
00:04:13
Speaker
We're not experiencing that every day right now. And that doesn't mean that God isn't with us. And it doesn't mean that what's happening isn't profound or isn't holy, isn't sacred. The day to day with God is what he loves and that's what he's always calling us to love. So I would say it's the same in our dream life when we want to write off the more mundane dreams and move in our own wisdom. Oh, that probably wasn't anything because that just happened earlier in the day and I was just processing.
00:04:41
Speaker
Yes, or God was actually using the imagery from that day because he knows what was going on with you to speak to you. Oh, it probably wasn't anything because I watched that movie the night before and that's probably what I was thinking about those characters.
00:04:56
Speaker
Maybe. or God was actually using those characters because he knows that they communicate something to you and he's using those to speak to you.
00:05:07
Speaker
So that was the topic of this call. We got into the discussion about mundane dreams and that is where we're going to start here with Anna's dream. I've become obsessed with my mundane dreams.
00:05:20
Speaker
um So I had a dream on the 7th of February. um I called it serving food and red lipstick.
00:05:28
Speaker
There was a lot of red, so that stood out. Anyway, the emotions were pretty like neutral, or there was a lot of, like, is this okay for me to do this? Like, a lot of wanting permission. um and Food at, like, some restaurant.
00:05:43
Speaker
I was wondering if it was okay for me to wear red lipstick. I also had...
Encouragement for Anna's Role
00:05:48
Speaker
um it reminded me this bill i'd met the other day's shirt britney um and people would deliver me a meal like that was like i was like the waitress you know and it would like come from the kitchen or whatever and i would be like supposed to give it out um and have an order number and so i'd be like oh does that mean i can eat this like this isn't actually for an order
00:06:14
Speaker
um And then but I think it was also a thing of like, it was like a pasta dish and I'm gluten free. there's a lot of, hey is this okay? Um, and then I changed locations and went to another restaurant.
00:06:33
Speaker
Hey, what did you title it? Serving food and red lipstick. Mm-hmm. On like red. Yep. Okay. And you said there was more red in the dream.
00:06:46
Speaker
ah There was, I was wearing a shirt of, so I just found to look in real life. I just found to look at it moving into a house with this girl. And I kind of felt like I was supposed to live there, even though it seemed a bit random. And I was like, okay.
00:06:58
Speaker
And so in the dream, it felt like I was, she had a red shirt on, just like a red cotton shirt. And in the dream, I was like, oh, it's like I'm wearing her shirt. What was her name? Brittany.
00:07:10
Speaker
Brittany.
00:07:12
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, this is a very symbolic dream. I definitely think it's a God dream. I, yeah, got got a bunch of information kind of right away, but I want to open the space to anything that Pat or Adam or Heather are sensing or questions you want to ask.
00:07:28
Speaker
Like background in hospitality or anything like this. So like, it's completely like, I'm like, okay, so I'm working in a restaurant. Like just don't dream like that at all. Okay, well, remember,
00:07:39
Speaker
Come out of literal. We're going to full on symbolism here.
00:07:45
Speaker
I would say all of this dream is symbolic.
00:07:49
Speaker
Oh, yeah. My average dream. Exactly. So not average. and This is a very, this is a very symbolic god dream, I think. Restaurants can be the church, right?
00:08:01
Speaker
Is Mm hmm. Mm hmm. say And think about serving food. Like what kind of food, if we're going to think of it symbolically.
00:08:13
Speaker
So in a church, let's think about it in that context. We're talking probably about spiritual nourishment. And it's something that you're getting from the kitchen.
00:08:24
Speaker
Just sorry, just to clarify, Anna, you were you were you were being served, right? Yeah, yeah so I was, I was Like, I guess I was like a waitress, maybe. it kind of felt like I was front of house, but I was... Okay.
00:08:39
Speaker
You were serving and um but Yeah, kind of felt like front of house slash waitressing because it felt like I was
Perseverance in Faith
00:08:50
Speaker
all like, I was there with the shirt, all of that. Like, like I could have been standing at the front, but it also felt like um I was like, okay, well, when do you want me to take this order?
00:09:03
Speaker
um which is very waitress.
00:09:07
Speaker
Okay. Yeah. So I understood it like you were serving food, but then there was also a time when it was like, oh, this isn't in order. This one's for you. is that right?
00:09:19
Speaker
i was like, well, this doesn't have a thing, so can I have it? But there yeah, it was okay. Is it okay if I wear red lipstick? Is that... That's my favorite part is the red lipstick, but...
00:09:32
Speaker
I'm not going to jump ahead.
00:09:35
Speaker
I looked at Brittany and it means from Britain and stranger. And the scripture is Ruth 210.
00:09:47
Speaker
And it says, why have I found favor in your eyes that you should take notice of me since I am a foreigner?
00:09:55
Speaker
o Hannah seems to like even maybe relate to like that. Is it okay? Is it okay if i wear red lipstick? Is it okay if I eat this food?
00:10:07
Speaker
the and Boaz is the one she's talking to whose field she's gleaning in. And, you know, he's the kinsman redeemer. So would so often represent Jesus.
00:10:20
Speaker
Wow. Is there an area of your life, Anna, where you feel like you're, like not like tiptoeing but like wondering like is this okay like needing that permission
00:10:37
Speaker
probably several honestly probably at my church literally but often like I um I remember when I was first there my friend was pastoring the young adults to to be like yo get up get a give a testimony give a word of knowledge and I'd be like I'm ready let's go and then um the left and it felt like like I've had things where I've been like oh I feel like the Lord is on this and it it's like once every six months and I'm like can i do a testimony I don't really want to and it's been like nope
00:11:11
Speaker
um
00:11:14
Speaker
okay okay I feel like it could be the Lord and bless people when it gets kind done
Anna's Potential Pastoral Role
00:11:22
Speaker
um you might have more thoughts on this Margo or somebody else but like um in light of what you just shared I'm curious like then like yeah immediately the red lipstick really stood out to me and I just wondered if there was like something to do with like the Lord highlighting your voice because like red's a really like bold color exactly um like and when you know when a woman wears red lipstick it's like you notice like it specifically makes your lips like stand out see I'm not sure how that connects
00:11:57
Speaker
like I mean, I see there's a connection, but I don't know like action stuff, I guess. um'm I'm looking at the common dream symbols here on the website or on the Facebook page. And the first thing after read is redemption. And it's a thought and on your lips.
00:12:15
Speaker
and That's so good. I thought it was like, oh, redemption is on your lips. It's like, you know, you do what you do. What you what you is like, what you're sensing is is correct. What you're, you know, your heart, what you have to say is.
00:12:28
Speaker
Yes. Is covered. It's, you know, you you're speaking from the fire, you know, you're speaking from God's heart. um And so it's like whether or not people are receiving it or not, you know,
00:12:41
Speaker
yeah just I feel like it's like this confirmation to your
Connection to Personal Journey
00:12:44
Speaker
heart. Like you're, you, you got, you got the right things on your lips.
00:12:49
Speaker
I kept thinking about um communion actually, because we have the red with the lips and then the pasta um and it wasn't gluten-free. It was like the real thing no and that reminded me of the bread of life. And I,
00:13:05
Speaker
just felt like um it had something to do with communion with God, your unity, your union with him, right? That like, um it actually brought me to Song of Songs 1-2 and it says, let him kiss me with the kisses it his mouth for your love is better than wine.
00:13:26
Speaker
Your anointing oils are fragrant. Your name is oil poured out. um Just that this is actually what you carry. Like it's important for you to know, like you carry this intimacy with God your, yeah, your mouth is so powerful, but it's like, like a kiss from him, right? Because you've received and now you're releasing these kisses in the form of words.
00:13:52
Speaker
Yep. And I mean, the bread lipstick is definitely about the boldness of your words, the boldness of your speech, and how there's permission for that. I think Boaz is saying, yes, like you have found favor, own the boldness of the things that you have to say, regardless of what the church says, like you're actually called to serve in the church, in the restaurant.
00:14:19
Speaker
To receive the nourishment from the kitchen, kitchens are also often the heart. And I'm just thinking you're going to literally receive the word of god word from God's heart and serve and bring it to the people.
00:14:31
Speaker
like You are hearing from the heart of God and you are serving it to the people. And some of the things that you hear aren't meant for them. It's just for you to nourish you.
00:14:42
Speaker
And then some of what's coming is for you to to release into the body. I think this is a part of who you are. There is permission, there is favor, and it's it's actually who you are to have that bold speech.
00:14:56
Speaker
Now, what's happening in the church where you move forward and they're not necessarily giving your permission, i would just not even worry about that, but just continue in the favor that God has given you. And don't take that as a rejection because God in this dream is showing you, this is what I've called you to You have favor.
00:15:12
Speaker
You have permission. This is what I want you to do. And i'm I'm reminded of a testimony here. i remember an example of and in her old church, like she had a word, you know, this one, did you? Yeah.
00:15:24
Speaker
Five for like five years or something. She would get the word of the Lord in a service and she would go up and tell them, Pastor like hey I have a word and every time no no no they would never let her do it for five years and she felt super rejected and like God was speaking to her so clearly but God told her to just keep going and eventually they did end up letting her release a word isn't that how it went Kat?
00:15:45
Speaker
Yeah it like took a long time it was like pretty crushing but yeah like eventually they built trust and like allowed her to share. And it was about the perseverance between her and God and having to overcome this. Like, it's not about the yes or no of man, but it's the obedience and the and the favor of God that that calls you into that. And so, yeah, that feels very clear in this dream. Yeah, because at the end of the dream, it felt like there was like another branch of the restaurant that opened another store and I went and worked there at the end.
00:16:21
Speaker
There you go.
00:16:24
Speaker
Yep. It's now, but like, it was just a like ah and so i'm like, Oh, and then I work somewhere else. That might be very literal. Go ahead, Adam.
00:16:37
Speaker
Just to touch on the meal you had, just because if what you, what you have to say just because what you have to say is not received doesn't mean you can't partake in it.
00:16:52
Speaker
Like you can speak in the amount of, but you're like, okay, well, I take that word for myself then. And, and you know, like when all the people are trying to kind of build up their resumes, God's like, are like you're, you're living epistles by all men, let your life be, let your life be the resume in a sense, let your life be the,
00:17:13
Speaker
the yeah two goes But as it just says being living a living epistle. I always think of that as these words we get, we can receive them and eat them ourselves and become those words, become those those those prophecies and and and let them be and and bs And then you're you're living, breathing, walking, not realizing you're emulating these very words God's spoken to you to speak out. But it's kind of like God's like, hey, take this treasure to them. And then you go to take it to them and they're like, well, we don't want it you' like All right, I'll keep it.
00:17:42
Speaker
I don't know if this has anything to do with what you're asking, but I was just looking at pasta in the, the um dream symbol bart book and I couldn't find it.
00:17:55
Speaker
It's not in there, but i was, you know, just going through the list and pastor, but next and that was um but so whole stuff ah and but so yeah that accent it's like pastor if it's like hey can I pastor am I allowed I don't know if that's like a stroll is something that's like been really on your heart like it's your gift it's like you want to to bring to the body and um that's the the struggle like can I pastor here and do I have permission oh
00:18:28
Speaker
oh I feel a little bit emotional about that. Part of me has been thinking, not even about, like ah but I think secretly I've been like, could I pastor a church one day? I wonder if maybe I'd really like that.
00:18:44
Speaker
um And then as you were saying pastor, I was like, I guess it's kind of like pastor. like I mean, it actually sounds like how you say pastor. Go
00:18:57
Speaker
say go ahead and say pastor. Pastor. that's bla I think it's so interesting that you just said, want, I've been wondering if I could pastor a church one day because the end of your dream was what really stood out to me that at the end, there was a change of location for the restaurant and yeah, just kind of seems to line up.
00:19:22
Speaker
Sure it is.
00:19:26
Speaker
b And being that this, like he was saying, the living epistle, like this this season that you're in for now, however long it is, your faithfulness to go receive the nourishment from the heart of God and bring it to the people, regardless of if they receive it or not.
00:19:39
Speaker
Like that is your journey of faithfulness with the Lord, a preparation for what he does have have for you. And stewarding the boldness of those words in the face of misunderstanding or a fear of man.
00:19:53
Speaker
It's preparation. Wow.
00:19:57
Speaker
So that's my average dream. This is what I'm talking about. They seem so average and there's nothing average about that. It's a total destiny dream.
