Onyx in a dream

Biblical meaning from Hearing God's Voice in Dreams by Apostle Nicholas V. Mbanjwa

Also: Flesh pink gemstone

What it means

Represents the tribe of Joseph — flesh pink, a type of Christ's loving nature, revealing the true nature of the Father.

The name Joseph means 'May He give Another'.

✦ When it is positive

  • Christ's loving nature
  • Revealing the true nature of the Father

How to tell the difference

Breastplate stone tied to the tribe of Joseph. Note: The raw Exodus 28:15-21 text quoted in the book lists the fourth-row stone as 'gray quartz' (a translation/terminology variation). The author's own interpretive framework, developed in detail immediately after that quote, explicitly identifies and defines this stone as Onyx with a flesh-pink color, tied to Joseph and to Christ's loving nature. The authorial definition is the standing one for dream interpretation purposes — the verse variation reflects a difference in translation source, not a contradiction of the framework.
