Now that we have progressed to the parables which do not have interpretations, I follow trends in the parables which I do know the interpretations for to determine if the solution is likely correct.
1. All the parables are about the “Kingdom of God”
2. The principal characters in the parables are God, people who are going to heaven, people who are not going to heaven, and angles.
3. The principal storyline has to do with a person who makes it, or does not make it to heaven.

With the previous trends as guidance it is illogical to assume that the parable of the yeast is about bread or deep space. However I have no proof because instructions were not given for interpretations.

It is interesting that the parables were designed to be misinterpreter by those who would wish to do so.
Luke 8:10
By interpreting the parable to be about a personally preferred topic, the true intent of the parable which is instruction about entering heaven is lost.

A scary thought.
