Damson
A damson tree heavy with rich purple fruit often touches the promise of plenty exceeding your present means — abundance hanging within reach. The dream may ask where you sense riches gathering above your current estate, yet whether tasting the fruit too soon, or in the wrong way, might turn sweetness into grief.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for damson, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
This is a peculiarly good dream if one is so fortunate as to see these trees lifting their branches loaded with rich purple fruit and dainty foliage; one may expect riches compared with his present estate.
To dream of eating them at any time, forebodes grief.
