Lemon in a dream: meaning

What dream books say

The lemon is read as sharpness, cleansing and a bitter truth. Dream books link it to disappointment or sour feelings, and also to freshness and a clear head. Squeezing a lemon is usually read as making the best of a hard situation. Eating one is linked to accepting something unpleasant, while a lemon tree in bloom points to hope and renewal. Lemonade stands for turning sourness into something good. It can help to ask what has felt sour lately and what might refresh it.
