Have you ever had a dream that you were eating fruits such as cherries, apples, strawberries, or perhaps pineapples?
Dreams about eating as such are highly symbolic. When you eat foods or things, you put something into your body that either benefits or harms you. For example, eating glass in a dream indicates bad habits or believing lies. On the contrary, eating something healthy, such as cereal or fruit, indicates both good health and a good future or positive news.
Still, to say that a dream about eating fruit means good health is quite superficial because dreams have an individual meaning for each of us. Additionally, the meaning of your dream may vary slightly depending on the fruit you ate or whether someone fed or forced you to eat it.
Eating Fruit In A Dream – Spiritual Meaning
Spiritually, dreams about eating fruit mean surprises, good news, “sweet moments,” and healing. According to an old dream dictionary I inherited from my grandmother, a dream about eating fruit serves as a pretty good indicator of pregnancy.
Old interpretations go so far as to say that eating cherries can predict the birth of a boy. On the other hand, if the woman is dreaming about eating peaches, mangoes, or watermelon, she will give birth to a girl.
A dream of eating fruit further symbolizes physical and mental healing and receiving something you have been waiting for for a long time. Just like fruit doesn’t grow on a tree or bush overnight, everything you desire takes time. This dream informs you that your wishes will soon come true or you will achieve your long-term goals.
Eating fruit in dreams is often seen as “harvesting what you have planted.” In other words, all your wishes and dreams will come true in no time. Fruits are mostly sweet, which could be a metaphor for sweet and carefree moments. For example, dreams of eating fruit are common in people who are traveling on vacation or planning something exciting.
Someone Forcing You To Eat Fruits
Dreaming about someone forcing you to eat fruit is seen as a negative sign. This dream indicates that there is someone who “rubs honey around your mouth,” while in reality, they are lying or “feeding you lies.”
Eating Cherries In A Dream
Cherries are most often depicted as two berries connected by a twig, and dreaming of eating cherries represents your desire for a relationship or togetherness. It could also indicate a twin flame reunion or meeting someone new with whom you will feel an instant connection.
Cherries can be both sweet and sour, which could indicate your insecurity. Maybe you want to enter a new relationship, but it’s hard for you to accept that you won’t be so free anymore. You may be in love with someone but find it difficult to accept the fact that you live apart from each other.
Eating Apple In A Dream
An apple is often seen as a highly spiritual symbol in dreams, probably because of the biblical story of Adam and Eve. A dream about eating an apple encourages you not to judge a book by its cover, or rather, an apple by its skin.
On the outside, an apple may look ugly, with signs of rot, but inside, there is sweet juice and healthy flesh. When you dream of eating an apple, your subconscious is encouraging you not to be so hard on yourself and not to look for faults or flaws in yourself that don’t exist.
The apple is one of the most common fruits found on every continent, suggesting you should realize that, at the end of the day, you are a human being just like any other and that finding fault in us or others is the last thing you should ever do.
Eating Fruits In A Dream Biblical Meaning
In the Bible, fruits are often associated with the fruits of the Spirit (love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, faithfulness, or gentleness.) Eating fruits in a dream could therefore be interpreted as a symbol of growing in these virtues. It could also indicate that you are growing closer to God.
