Pear in a dream
In folk belief, a pear in a dream stands for patience: the fruit that falls on its own when its time comes.
Old dream books read the pear through the well-known saying that a ripe one falls by itself. So a dream of a pear is believed to speak of things that should not be shaken or hurried, only waited for. A juicy yellow pear is read as a kind word from your elders and advice worth hearing, and an old pear tree as the family hearth and roots. People say this is a calm dream, with no sudden turns, just like the tree itself.
