Figs
Figs often touch ripe sweetness and the health or sickness hidden in indulgence — joy when sound, marred pleasure when spoiled. The dream may ask what rich, soft fruit you're reaching for, whether it nourishes or unsettles you, and where a prosperity growing on the branch differs from a pleasure already gone soft.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for figs, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
Figs, signifies a malarious condition of the system, if you are eating them, but usually favorable to health and profit if you see them growing.
For a young woman to see figs growing, signifies that she will soon wed a wealthy and prominent man.
Fontaine, 1862
To dream of eating good figs, signifies joy and happiness; if the figs are mouldy or defective, your pleasure will be marred by some disagreeable event.
