Symbols / An apple
A reading for meaning, not prophecy
An apple is read as fruit, temptation, and health — in the East a ripe reward and sweetness earned (果), in the West knowledge, temptation, and wholeness, in Ibn Sirin's tradition a good deed, provision, or the fruit of one's effort.
Three readings
周公解梦 reads the apple as 果 — ripe fruit and the sweet reward of effort; a fresh, red apple marks health, love, and a fortune come to fruition, a rotten one a reward spoiled or an effort gone to waste. The harvest made sweet.
Jung would read the apple as knowledge, temptation, and wholeness at once — Eden's fruit and the round symbol of the complete Self. To take it is to reach for knowing or desire; its state shows whether that reaching nourishes or costs you.
Ibn Sirin read fruit such as the apple as provision, a good deed, or the fruit of one's effort and striving — sweet, sound fruit a wholesome gain, spoiled fruit a benefit turned. Framed as meaning: what is coming to fruition, and is it sound?
