When we do things with faith, hope and love and in obedience to the Lord then we are building with gold, silver and precious stones.

To dream of owning diamonds is a very propitious dream, signifying great honor and recognition from high places.

For a young woman to dream of her lover presenting her with diamonds, foreshows that she will make a great and honorable marriage, which will fill her people with honest pride; but to lose diamonds, and not find them again, is the most unlucky of dreams, foretelling disgrace, want and death.

For a sporting woman to dream of diamonds, foretells for her many prosperous days and magnificent presents.

For a speculator, it denotes prosperous transactions.

To dream of owning diamonds, portends the same for sporting men or women. Diamonds are omens of good luck, unless stolen from the bodies of dead persons, when they foretell that your own unfaithfulness will be discovered by your friends.

Vision: Sad to say, seeing such a brilliant treasure in a dream does not bode well. Wearing a diamond is usually a sign of an overly developed ego, or strong feelings of inferiority. Losing a diamond ring: separation from a loved one. Wearing a diamond ring/bracelet/ necklace: you are covering up a lack of self-worth with external “things” (sometimes also with bragging). Someone else wearing a diamond: watch out for false friends. Receiving a diamond as a gift: you will soon celebrate a happy event, an engagement or the like, and it might mean an improvement in your social status.

Depth Psychology: Dreaming about a diamond is a warning: don’t be arrogant. Bragging is only a compensation for feelings of inferiority.
