There may also be an allusion to your diet in waking life you may not be getting enough fiber, cereals and vegetables. In dreams, vegetables can symbolize the most basic human emotions. But vegetables are not always good news because we often refer to people who are slow, lazy, sluggish or inactive as ’vegetables’ or ’cabbages’ or ’couch potatoes’, a dream image of vegetables may be referring to your own inability to think, function or get active in waking life. This is why in dreamland they symbolize experiences that are good for us, providing basic emotional nourishment. Vegetables, like fruits, provide nourishment and nutrients but unlike fruits they are seldom regarded as delicious or sweet treats. The number, shape, color, taste and type of vegetable or fruit and the overall content and feeling of your dream also need be considered. You may be projecting a need to feed your body or soul, or reflecting on a dull and not very satisfying part of life. Interpreting the symbolism of fruits and vegetables in your dream depends on how you feel about them in daily life whether you like them for their taste and nutritional value, or find them dull and boring. For Jungians, vegetables are symbols of personal growth indicating the need for spiritual nourishment. According to Freud, dreams that feature vegetables and fruits may be of a sexual nature, depending on the shape of the vegetable and your feelings in the dream. You are thought to be concerned with nourishment, fullness or abundance if you dream of vegetables or feel you are lacking these things if the vegetables are spoiled or of poor quality.
However, if you dream of fruit that is past its ripeness, it is said to represent a missed opportunity or a loss of fertility. To see fruit in your dream may therefore signify a period of growth, abundance, sweet reward and financial gain. In general, fertility and readiness are associated with ripe and succulent fruit. Vegetables and fruit are a vital source of nourishment in the real world, and in dreamland their reference is usually to feeding the emotions rather than nourishing the body.
