Giving a Gift

In a dream, receiving or giving a gift is generally interpreted as auspicious. To see oneself giving a gift to someone in a dream is auspicious for both the giver and the recipient. Both of them attain their desires. If the gift given is something evil, both the recipient and the giver will suffer harm.

Whoever sees in a dream that a gift has been given to him will marry someone he loves. To see oneself being given a gift by an elderly man or woman signifies good.

To see oneself giving someone a gift, while that person refuses and does not accept it, is a sign that one will hear an evil word. According to Salimi, a gift is interpreted as gossip.

If in your dream you see that you have received a gift from someone, but do not know what is inside the gift package, this signifies that you will hear an insinuating remark from someone, but will not understand why that remark was made. To see oneself giving a gift to someone is a sign that you do not approve of that person’s conduct toward you.

To see your spouse buying you a gift, or to see yourself giving your spouse a gift, is evidence that some estrangement will arise between you over nothing. That one of your children buys you a gift is evidence that you do not concern yourself with his or her future. That an elder sends you a gift is a sign that you will leave your employment.

It can be read as a sign of easing, receiving support, gaining morale, or a fruitful development.

Underestimating opportunities, succumbing to comfort, or being late may reduce the positive effect.

In the interpretation, the themes of work and responsibility, success and reputation, the emotional tone in the dream, and how the symbol concludes in the dream should be evaluated together.
