An oyster is a marine mollusk or shellfish with a rough shell and produces pearls like clams and mussels. Oysters inhabit shallow places and are easy to find.

Positive: Dreaming of an oyster may show that a person is seeking the treasures or wisdom of God. It could represent that one is holding treasure or gifts within them but have a rough exterior that needs to be broken to get to the gift.

Negative: To dream of an oyster could symbolize that one is lacking depth in God. It could also represent a person’s passive character. Oysters could also represent that one is being preyed upon.
