To dream that you are climbing a tree signifies achievement of your career goals and attainment of higher positions in life. The speed at which you climb the tree will parallel the speed of your achievement of these goals
To see or eat figs in your dream represent a positive turn of events. Figs are also often associated with sex, conception and eroticism.
as for lions
To see a lion in your dream symbolizes great strength, courage, aggression and power. You will overcome some of your emotional difficulties. As king of the jungle, the lion also represents dignity, royalty, leadership, pride and domination. You have much influence over others. You also need to exercise some restraint in your own personal and social life.
To dream that you are attacked by a lion suggests that a force may be driving you to self-destruction. You need overcome these challenges and obstacles.
To see a black lion in your dream represents a negative force. You are using your position of power for evil
Hey Riddler, this sounds FUN
Achievement of career goals - yep, I retired at the top of my profession in a (very narrow) technical field. Even 10 years after retirement from mainstream I get calls to do consultancy work (often in relatively exotic lands).
I was not eating the figs - I was picking them and throwing them to someone down below. I do like figs though (stewed gently in water and natural cane sugar until it goes all syrupy). I like the link to eroticism and sex but at may age and benefit of the surgeon the conception bit is out!
The lions (always natural sand colour, not black) are not unfriendly at all, almost the opposite in fact. They are always very close by.
In days of travelling (S.Africa) I have been close up to lions ie me in an open Landy while the lions were just lounging in the sun 25 ft away. On the decent game reserves this is quite safe. The lions there are all 'locals' and the wardens know them all by name (and what they had for dinner and when). The lions have been brought up knowing the big green noisy "animals" ie the open Land Rovers, represent no threat at all so they totally ignore them.
