Activation-Synthesis Model of Dreaming

Here's an article I found at the back of my psychology notebook. Back in UP Diliman, I was so fond of staying in the General Reference Section of the library (on the first floor) to study for some exam, but most of the time I find myself jotting down some trivial information on things that capture my attention. That time I chanced upon this book on dreams and started reading.

Upside Down Cup

Last night, I dreamt about a cup. My cousin was asking for her cup which I cannot understand why because I saw in my dream that it was exactly where the cup was supposed to be.

The dream changed into something that I was so nervous about being late for some sort of appointment (which for some reason I felt was regarding a test/exam or interview). Due to time constraint, I wore my clothes clumsily and that's how my father told me to "improve" (this was the exact word he used) myself.

I dreamt of an "apple on a tree"

Depending on the context of the dream, an Apple can signify love (if the apple is fresh and given to someone), guilt (only if one associates eating an apple with the biblical reference to the garden of Eden). In prophetic dreams the apple is considered to be a very good omen, but the interpretation depends primarily on what the details are. If the apples are ripe there is a promise of financial rewards but if the apples were green, bitter, or tainted in some way then you are in danger of losing something through mistake or foolishness that you would have otherwise gained.
