One looks at oaks since Germanic times as holy trees, itself were associated with natural wisdom, philosophy, optimism and prophecy. Under the oak one met to direct, but also in order to exchange himself and to be sociably together. A strong male energy is inherent in the oak and she symbolises down-to-earthness. Symbolically the oak is also connected Germany where there are typically many places with the name 'German oak'. Oak symbolises success, then strength, power, influence and stable health, - one stands firmly on the ground of the facts, roots in the origins of own existence. However, partly the need for protection and help is also expressed in it. Symbol of a übertonten masculinity, but also the willpower which looks overpowering. Some psychoanalysts state, oaks in the dream of women could indicate at certain being dissatisfied. The oak can point as a life tree to the maturity of our soul which causes a firmness of own position in the awake life. If one associates the oak, however, with him 'at home', so with own family, the dream to one could ask to remember of the background and to rest on him. He advises maybe, on the love and confirmation which one got in the youth, to be based and to give more attention to the advice of the parents.
