Dreaming of jewelry: meaning in Korea

In Korean tradition, jewels in a dream are talent and honor: recognition, precious gifts and one of the loveliest taemong.

What they say in Korea 보석꿈

In kkumhaemong, jewels stand for something precious that shines: a talent, a special person or an honor. Finding or receiving precious stones is said to announce recognition, an important gift or the discovery of a skill of your own. A large pearl, a diamond or jade is considered especially favorable. Jade, by the way, has deep meaning in Korea: it symbolizes purity and nobility, and it appears on ancient royal crowns. Jewels are also one of the loveliest taemong (태몽): they announce a precious, talented child. If the jewels get lost or break, the reading suggests taking better care of what you value.
