Discover the dream symbol interpretation and spiritual meaning
Confections are symbolic of gossip, Prov. 18:8
We generally dream of dessert items when acceptance is an issue. The dream is showing our desire to find gratification in being accepted for who we are. Unlike other food items that can show our desire for greater fulfillment - the sweets are delicious but not a substantial meal. If you often dream of sweets or desserts, you may need to make greater strides toward self love. This will lead to the fulfillment you attempt to get through the acceptance of others. See also Food.
Seeing or eating sweets in a dream indicates one’s sincerity in his religious attendance, release of a prisoner, arrival of a traveller, recovery of a sick person, marriage of an unwed person, guidance, repentance, learning the Qur’an, buying new clothing for one’s children, having a loyal servant, or earning blessed monies. Seasonal sweets in a dream represent witnessing an annual festival, or the reinstatement of a just ruler. To feel saturated with sweets in a dream means self-conceit, lies, or it could mean extollment, or speaking nice words. Eating sweets in a dream also means suffering from cold symptoms. Though, eating fermented sweets or preserves in a dream may represent a cure. If a sweet is made from the basic four ingredients (i.e., honey, sugar, flour and manna or dates, or other fillings) in a dream, it means happiness, longevity, or escaping from the consequences of a dangerous busi¬ ness one ventures in with greed. As for a believer, eating sweets in a dream means tasting the blessings of one’s faith, though for a disbeliever, it means indulging in the pleasures of this world.
