It just so happens that the image of an apple carries some ambiguity due to the association that sometimes arises with that forbidden fruit that our ancestors Adam and Eve once tasted. Nevertheless, most interpreters believe that buying apples in a dream is a good omen, promising the acquisition of wisdom and, as a result, achievement of success in various areas of life. Let's try to understand this paradox.
Buy apples from old ladies!
One of the ardent supporters of such dreams was the famous Bulgarian soothsayer Vanga. The dream book, compiled on the basis of her statements, gives a very typical example when the dreamer buys apples in a dream from an old woman selling at the market. In this simple scene she sees a sign that in reality life will bestow wisdom on this person.
Her conclusion is quite logical, because the image of old age present in the plot is directly related to the years lived, and if the dreamer receives certain fruits from them, then what is this if not life experience - the basis of wisdom. Developing her idea, Mrs. Vanga further wrote that an inquisitive mind will help this person acquire a lot of new knowledge, and they, in turn, will not only increase his self-esteem, but also strengthen his authority among work colleagues and superiors.
Why does a woman see apples in a dream?
For a more accurate answer to the dream, you should remember all the detailed nuances of your night dreams.
On the tree
So, for example, apples hanging on a tree are a pleasant omen, which, in combination with the above points, will be interpreted as a beginning. The onset of a new stage in life or its radical change.
On the ground
Fruits lying on the ground are more susceptible to rotting and infection by parasites, which gives the dream a negative connotation.
70% of such dreams are deception
The dream warns of deception and careless actions with negative consequences. Fate wants to protect the dreamer by sending her a warning. Weigh your actions and be careful with people you don’t know well.
On snow
When a woman dreams of fruits lying in the snow, she can relax and enjoy life. Now there are no threats to the dreamer’s family happiness.
In hand
Eating or holding an apple in a dream is considered a favorable sign, foreshadowing happy events and joy.
Advice for mature women and young girls
Readers are offered other, no less interesting interpretations of what it means for a woman to see apples in a dream, buy them, or simply eat them. For example, Mrs. Vanga, who gained worldwide fame for her ability to contemplate the hidden essence of things, said that if a certain lady feels herself in a night vision buying frozen fruits covered with a layer of frost, then this means that in real life she is depriving herself of pleasures that she could well would give in. By doing this, the dreamer will not harm herself or her loved ones. She simply lacks determination, but later she will bitterly regret missed opportunities.
Further, turning to unmarried girls who happened to see apples in a dream, she recommended being extremely attentive to everything that young people tell them (and especially whisper) in whom they see their potential suitors. As stated above, in the perception of the Bulgarian soothsayer, an apple is a symbol of wisdom, and seeing it in a dream, much less buying it, means acquiring it. Wisdom comes with experience, which, according to Pushkin, is “the son of difficult mistakes.” It is from these mistakes, which can turn into bitter, but, alas, belated tears for the girls, that Mrs. Vanga warns them.
According to Miller's dream book
- Buying apples in a night dream usually happens to those who have prospects ahead associated with increased financial independence.
- A particularly favorable dream is one in which, along with fruit, you found a lot of apple leaves: now your wealth will definitely not go anywhere.
However, beware of purchasing low quality fruits.
- The dream book does not recommend buying apples if they are rotten or undermined by the codling moth. The dream promises various squabbles and unpleasant events in the life of its owner (mistress).
Supporter of a business approach to dream interpretation
In his positive assessment of “apple dreams,” a prominent American religious figure, Pastor David Loff, completely agrees with the Bulgarian soothsayer. In his published work one can find a direct indication of what it means to buy apples. He considers seeing such a scene in a dream as a good omen. However, if the Bulgarian seer in her interpretation focuses on the acquisition of knowledge and natural joys, then Mr. Loff, as a true American, talks only about “despicable metal.” In his opinion, a person who buys apples in a dream will certainly become rich in reality, and money will fall on him immediately and in large quantities.
The Pastor Without Prejudice
Perhaps the reason for this will be luck in gambling. Note that Pastor Loff does not dissuade his readers from such a sinful activity, but only advises them not to lose their heads and, having hit the jackpot, to stop in time. Such advice from a priest is, to put it mildly, surprising. However, as if apologizing to his readers, this “devoid of prejudices” shepherd writes that the reason for success may turn out to be completely innocent - for example, an inheritance received from a rich relative or a generous bonus.
About the futile struggle against temptations
Another unprejudiced dream interpreter was the famous Austrian psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud, who in the first half of the 20th century convinced humanity that all human aspirations are guided by the sexual instinct. Being consistent in his reasoning, he wrote that buying apples in a dream means a person’s struggle with the desire for forbidden (extramarital, of course) pleasures, which he forces himself to give up for fear of getting into trouble. In this case, the number of fruits acquired by him as a result of bargaining is important. The pattern is simple: the more there are, the more numerous the temptations that surround him in real life.
Next, the author discusses what the plot of the night vision means, in which a person has to buy red apples. A dream of such content, in his opinion, may be evidence for him of unsuccessful attempts to cope with his lust. There is a very high probability that, having become convinced of his own powerlessness before the “call of nature,” he will give up on the possible consequences and go to great lengths. He will look for self-justification in the banal phrase: “This is where everyone ends anyway.”
According to the dream book of Dmitry and Nadezhda Zima
- A good dream is one in which the dreamer (the dreamer) acquires strong and ripe apples without wormholes or bruises. Such a night vision promises the fulfillment of planned undertakings and the implementation of cherished plans.
- Did you buy apples and cut the fruits into slices? The situation that has arisen in your life is very controversial. Now it is important to act carefully so as not to provoke failure in an important enterprise.
- If you bought green apples, be patient, now is not the time to fulfill your plans.

Be smart and beware of rotten fruit
However, one should not accept the opinion of the Austrian interpreter as the ultimate truth. The same plot of the dream - the purchase of apples and their careful selection - is interpreted by the compilers of the Wanderer's Dream Book in a completely different way. They do not see any connection with a person’s intimate life. The authors simply recommend that dreamers be careful when spending money and compare it with real income. Everything is extremely simple - transfer your prudence from a dream to the real world, and it will protect you from troubles.
Another interesting remark by the same authors is the interpretation in which a person buys good and carefully selected apples in a dream, and when he comes home he suddenly discovers that one of them is rotten and eaten away by wormholes. In their opinion, such a plot twist indicates that in real life someone from the dreamer’s inner circle harbors vile plans in their souls. Perhaps this secret enemy dreams of bypassing him on the career ladder by any means, or perhaps he is jealous of family well-being and is looking for a way to disrupt it. In any case, having seen such a dream, you should take a closer look at the people around you in reality.
Choose only red apples!
The compilers of a dream book named after Nostradamus, the famous French astrologer and mystic of the 16th century, give a very positive answer to the question of what it means to buy red apples in a dream. Referring to the connection between their work and the authentic statements of the famous master, they argue that the image of a ruddy ripe apple purchased at the market or in a store is a harbinger of some discovery that the dreamer will make in real life. Perhaps it will not be large-scale and will not affect global progress, but among close people it will certainly be noticed.
According to the compilers of the dream book, you need to buy apples in a store or at the market very carefully and, when choosing fruits, make sure that there are no rotten or wormy ones among them. In this case, all the work expended in real life will be in vain, and after time, you can again find yourself at the starting point, but with diminished strength and without the desire to continue the search.
According to Aesop's dream book
- Did you buy an overpriced apple and roll it around on a plate in a night dream, like a famous lady from an equally famous fairy tale? With this scenario, the universe says that someone’s secret will be revealed to you. This will happen completely by accident.
- If you just put your expensive apple on a plate and admire it, without any idea what to do next, in real life you will have to take part in interesting incidents.
- At the market, these fruits were so praised that you could not help but buy them - in reality, there is a high probability of you being involved in unpleasant, risky business.
The opinion of another overseas interpreter
American psychologist Gustav Miller is considered one of the most authoritative dream interpreters. In the 20s of the last century, he published his famous dream book overseas, which gained wide popularity among readers. Like his compatriot Mr. Loff, discussed above, he approached the interpretation of dreams from the position of a businessman and explained to readers in which cases they promise profit and in which they portend losses. In the same vein, he examined the question of what it means to buy apples in a dream.
Thus, Mr. Miller wrote that a person who bought apples in night visions will in reality expect some large-scale acquisitions, which will be preceded by an expansion of business partnerships and, as a consequence, an increase in profits. At the same time, he specifically indicated how the dreamer’s future benefits depend on the color of the purchased apples.
According to the Jewish dream book
- Buying large, but hard and completely inedible apples in a night dream - for the dreamer (or dreamer) foreshadows betrayal in reality. Your spouse has succumbed to temptation on the side.
- Buy small apples (paradise) - you will receive a job offer, which will result in decent earnings.
- The purchase turned out to be very pleasant to the taste, very sweet and juicy - luck will visit you much faster than you might imagine.
- To acquire a golden apple, very beautiful, but, alas, inedible - your dreams have no future, and for this reason, it would be foolish to expect their fulfillment.
It's all about the color of the apples
Without a shadow of a doubt, he argued that yellow fruits are harbingers of new business acquaintances. A very pleasant dream. Buying green apples that are the same color as dollar bills means making a good deal and successfully getting rich. Even if dry fruits were purchased, you should not be upset - according to Mr. Miller, they are a sign of financial stability and strengthening the dreamer’s authority. In conclusion, apparently condescending to human weaknesses, the venerable master added that red apples promise their buyer success in intimate life.
According to Tsvetkov’s dream book
The color of the purchased fruit taken away in a dream is also of great importance.
- Green is the color of friendship, warmth, kindness, honesty and sincerity. Therefore, seeing ripe, beautiful and green apples in a dream means that sincere and warm relationships with loved ones await you. If there was a conflict, then this indicates its resolution, an apology, or the acquisition of a new friend. If a new acquaintance has recently appeared, his intentions are pure and you can completely trust him.
- With yellow, everything is much more complicated. It means toughness, assertiveness, survival, strength. A man dreamed of a yellow apple - to fruitful work, success in business relationships, victory.
- Red color is passion, energy, strength, aggression. Seeing large and red fruits in a dream is a sign of fruitful cooperation, friendship, or passion, love, or conceiving a child. In addition, red is a symbol of temptation, seduction and sensuality.
Disagreements between the compilers of dream books
Most compilers of dream books pay special attention to predictions addressed to women. Did you buy apples in a dream? This vision is a reflection of your actual affairs, since you are the one who has to run the household. Nevertheless, observations show that, having become the subject of night vision, this habitual activity can carry a hidden meaning.
Let us immediately note that interpreters do not have a common opinion on this matter, and they sometimes contradict each other. For example, according to a number of dream book compilers, buying apples for women means entering a period of quiet and serene life, while other authors consider this plot a harbinger of imminent pregnancy, childbirth and all the worries and troubles that accompany them. What kind of silence and serenity can we talk about in this case?
Once again about the color of apples!
It is interesting to note that the compilers of dream books recommend that young and inexperienced girls pay special attention to the color of apples in their dreams, on which their interpretation largely depends. In particular, if they were green, then such a dream does not promise them anything other than new friendship. It is possible that this person will have all conceivable and inconceivable virtues, but things will not go beyond mutual respect.
Dreams in which a girl bought, ate, or simply saw a red apple are interpreted in a completely different way. This fruit, which once played a cruel joke on our foremother Eve, may well help the dreamer realize some secret dreams that she shares only with her closest friend.
True, it is possible that the crazy passion that overwhelmed both partners at first will turn out to be short-lived and will soon give way to bitter disappointment. But it is also possible that the flared romance will end with a marriage proposal. At least, this is what I would like to wish for a romantic dreamer.
And finally, yellow apples, which can also be included in the plot of women's dreams. They, according to most interpreters, do not promise either strong friendship or fiery love, but they foretell successful advancement up the career ladder, which is also important, especially for a modern emancipated woman, accustomed to relying on herself in everything. There is reason to hope that her superiors will see in her an employee who is valuable in all respects and will open the door to career growth.
