hi,
the apple tree,
this remindes me of the one in the the garden of eden story,
perhaps you are tempted by "forbidden fruits",
as tony has said,between the two choices you see yourself confronted with,the father figure,who would represent the knowing aspect within yourself,is telling you the correct action to take,
if your real father gave you advice,is it something you could trust,if the answer is yes,than I would listen to it,
as this is why the dream has used the symbol of your father to convey the instructions,
it is possible that the dream just reflects the state you find yourself in with regard to some decision you must make,
only you will know what it is,when you transfer & reflect the action & images to something going on in your life ,
keep us posted .
