Eating mushrooms — dubious ventures or acquaintances with unclear consequences. A poisonous mushroom — a dangerous influence or surroundings that could cause harm. Good, edible mushrooms — unexpected but real profit.

Dried mushrooms — accumulated wisdom from the past that will prove useful in the future.

Freud saw in the mushroom a phallic symbol and interpreted it as a sign of sexual energy and creative power. A large mushroom — self-confidence and sexual attractiveness.

For Hasse, mushrooms are a sign of hidden resources and unexpected finds. Finding a full basket of mushrooms — unexpected gain or the discovery of something valuable. A small mushroom — a beginning that is inconspicuous but capable of growing into something significant. Mushrooms in the house — something has quietly taken root in your life; whether good or bad depends on the feeling in the dream.
