Dreaming of fruit trees can mean several things. When you happen to dream about them, you must first write down all the details of the dream immediately after waking up. Then, use those details to determine the meaning of the dream. Remember, however, that dreams are subjective and closely related to your life situation. Consequently, symbols can have a different meaning depending on the person dreaming - it is best to take the symbolism associated with dreams with due caution.
Steps
Part 1 of 2: Preparing for Interpretation
Step 1. Keep a diary by the bed
Keep a pen and paper handy on the nightstand. So everything will be ready to immediately write down the details of any particularly clear dream.
Step 2. Write immediately after waking up
If you wait even just to go to the bathroom, you risk forgetting much of the dream content! Give yourself time to write down your impressions as soon as the dream ends.
Step 3. Start with the most important details
As you write down the dream, take note of the most important details. What was going on? Why were you looking at the trees? Where were they? Who was there with you? Try to grasp the crucial elements of the dream.
For example, you may have dreamed of an apple tree that was in your grandmother's garden. Maybe there was even a baby asleep in the branches
Step 4. Write down the emotions you were feeling
The emotions and feelings you experience in dreams are like those in real life. When you wake up, try to write them down. You are scared? Happy? Enthusiastic? Sad? Write down your mood.
For example, when you wake up you may have experienced a feeling of fulfillment
Step 5. Write down all the details
Now that you have grasped the core of the dream, you can begin to add more details that you may remember as you go. What season were we in? Was it day or night? What was the light like? These additional details can serve to make the interpretation more precise.
Perhaps in the dream it was spring at dawn, with the sun beginning to rise in the distance behind the branches of the tree
Step 6. Make a drawing
Sometimes it can be easier to draw a dream than to describe it. It doesn't need to be technically perfect. You are just trying to capture the atmosphere of the dream: graphic expertise is not important.
Part 2 of 2: Interpreting Your Dream on a Fruit Tree
Step 1. What kind of fruit tree was it?
The tree species can lead to differences in interpretation. Different types of fruit and fruit trees mean different things.
- For example, an apple tree can mean joy and fun, while clustered fruit can mean brotherly companionship and unity.
- If the apple tree that was in your grandmother's garden brings good memories to you, the baby asleep in the branches could allude to the contentment you feel at your recent decision to have children. Remember that everything you dream of is in close connection with your life, therefore, to interpret it, you must always start from your thoughts and memories.
- Dreaming of a grapefruit may mean that you are feeling high lately, while kiwi may mean that you need to cheer yourself up.
Step 2. Know that the meaning can be positive
Dreaming of fruit trees can indicate that something good is upon us. Some think it is a sign of impending prosperity. If you own your own business, you may notice an increase in sales after such a dream.
- In some cultures, dreams are believed to provide a key to the future. For example, a dream where an apple tree appears may indicate that you will soon have a baby.
- If you work as an employee, you might get a promotion.
Step 3. Understand the meaning of the season in which the dream is set
The season in which the dream is set affects the interpretation. For example, dreaming of a tree in full bloom, in the summer, means joy and happiness, while a bare tree in the winter, as well as some withered fruit, can indicate that you are experiencing a period of suffering.
- Likewise, if the fruits are still unripe, it can mean you need to put in more effort if you want to make your dreams come true.
- In the dream where the child appears, the fact that it is spring can symbolize a new life.
Step 4. Notice the connotations
Since fruit is associated with spring, it can mean that there are turning points on the horizon. Spring represents awakening and rebirth, so it could mean it's the right time to start a new experience.
The flowers that appear in the dream, in addition to being a symbol of your family, can mean that something is about to bloom in your life - such as the birth of a baby
Step 5. Consider the emotions you felt in the dream
If in the dream there were withered fruits, but the sight of them filled you with joy, it could mean that you are happy at the idea of the end of a project, idea or relationship. Similarly, if ripe fruits appeared in the dream, but at the sight of them you felt a feeling of sadness, it could mean, for example, that you have achieved your wellness goals, but at a high price.
The sense of fulfillment you felt in the dream your grandmother appeared in may mean that she, if she were still alive, would be happy with the decision you just made
Step 6. Link the details of the dream together
Fruit trees probably weren't the only protagonists of your dream. For the interpretation he uses all the details of the dream: a symbol, even a small one, can have a great influence on the meaning, in one way or another.
Remember the details: the grandmother's apple tree, the child, the sun … the sun can be a symbol of the dawn of a new phase in your life
Step 7. Understand any meaning related to your children
Another possible meaning concerns upcoming positive news for your children. In Chinese culture, dreaming of fruit on a tree means that your children will have luck.
