Islamic Interpretation
In a dream, plums seen in their proper season signify health, well-being, and comfort, while plums seen out of season point to hardship, anxiety, and difficulty. Nevertheless, seeing a plum tree brings benefit in all cases. Eating a sweet, ripe plum indicates indulging one’s desires, pleasures, and passions, whereas tasting a sour plum reflects fear or apprehension. A plum tree also represents a wealthy person, or a reckless yet bold individual who faces trials bravely, may gain riches early in life, but could die young. Eating plums out of season signifies severe illness. Picking a plum from its tree means taking money from someone who is near death. Plums may also bring glad tidings of recovering what was lost when they are good, or serve as a warning against repeating harmful actions. A plum further represents a righteous brother or a handsome and honorable companion. The same meaning applies to all kinds of berries. (Also see Tree)
