Rotten – Dreaming that something is rotten
Dreaming that something is rotten or rotting can suggest that you waste your time on things that don’t really matter. You need to get back to work and face your problems if you want to become successful instead of letting yourself rot away.
Rouge
Using rouge in your dream suggests that you are acting sneaky to get what you want, or that you will act this way to get what you want. If you are taking the rouge off of your face, then this suggests that you will be embarrassed by your own actions when someone else catches onto what you are doing. You are likely to lose friends when this happens.
If someone else is wearing rouge, then this may imply that they are deceiving you in your waking life. It is best to watch out for these people.
Roulette
Playing roulette in your dream suggests that now is a good time to take a risk. If you are going to do this, make sure that you know your actions’ consequences.

Seeing a roundabout in your dream can suggest that you are having a hard time advancing in your waking life. You will need to work harder and pay more attention if you want to succeed in your work or love life.
Rowboat
Dreaming that other people are in the boat with you suggests that friends will surround you in your waking life. These friends are sure to make your life more enjoyable. If no one is in the boat with you, then this can suggest that you are feeling lonely. Try spending more time with your friends.
If you win a race in your boat, then this suggests that you will overcome your rivals and become successful in your workplace or your love life. If you lose the race, then this predicts the opposite.
If your boat starts to sink, then this implies that you are too easily distracted. If you do not stay focused on the task at hand, then you are sure to fall behind.
See Boat* and the body of water that the rowboat was on for further dream symbolism.
Rowing
Rowing can represent a difficult journey, often an emotional journey, that you are going through or that you will go through shortly. If you are good at rowing, then you are likely to overcome your obstacles with ease. If rowing is difficult, then this can suggest the opposite.
Royalty
Royalty represents grace, power, and strength. This dream could suggest that you need to gain these traits to become a more successful person.
This dream can alternatively suggest that you want to be as powerful as a royal member when you get older.
Looking up a specific royal member term, like King or Queen* can also provide you with further dream symbolism.
Rub
Rubbing something in your dream suggests that you need something or someone to comfort you in your waking life. You may want someone else to help you with a complicated decision that you need to make.
This dream could less symbolically suggest that you want to be touched more often. This could be a romantic, sexual, or just comforting type of touch.
Rubber
Seeing items made out of rubber is a sign that you need to be more secretive about certain aspects of your life, most likely your social life. Your friends are sure to understand your secrecy if they know that you are still loyal to them.
Wearing clothes made out of rubber suggests that you will be honored by others around you because of your balanced lifestyle. The bad influences cannot get to you. However, if these rubber clothes are ruined in any way, this suggests that people are trying to ruin your reputation, whether or not you are actually doing anything wrong.
Looking up the rubber object or piece of clothing can also provide you with further dream symbolism.
Rubber Band
Using rubber bands in your dream suggests that you need to learn how to communicate with others better. You need to become more flexible in your relationships if you want them to flow better in the future.
If the rubber band breaks, then this can suggest that you are stretching yourself too thinly. If possible, try to lessen your responsibilities so that you can ease some of the burdens in your waking life.
Rubber Duck
Seeing a rubber duck in your dream can suggest that you have been acting childishly in your waking life. You need to learn how to act more maturely if you want to fit in with people in your own age group. You need to learn how to express yourself in a more adult way if you want people to respect you more. Until you change, others are likely to see you as being immature and shallow.
See Toy* for further dream symbolism.

Seeing rubbish in your dream implies that you are losing control of your lifestyle. Try to organize your life before it completely falls apart.
Rubble
Seeing rubble in your dream suggests that you are trying to get rid of parts of your personality that you don’t like. This could be caused by self-destructive behavior, which is no good. Try to improve yourself in other ways.
Ruby

Rue
Rue represents the memory, grief, and forgiveness. This could be a sign that you are feeling guilty about something. Try to the right the wrong you have made, or else you are likely to continue to feel this way.
Rug
Seeing a rug in your dream can be a pun on the phrase, “brush it under the rug,” suggesting that you are trying to hide something from someone. Eventually, you will not be able to hide this any longer, so you should figure out what to do with this secret before it is too late.
Seeing a dirty rug can suggest that you feel like you are being stepped on and used by others. It would help if you stood up for yourself because it is not likely that others will.
Rugby
Playing or watching rugby suggests that you have pent up competitive energy that you need to get out. You should get this out in a healthy way, like playing sports instead of doing something aggressive.
See Sport* for further dream symbolism.
Ruins
Seeing ruins in your dream is a bad sign. This can suggest that things in your life seem to be falling apart, even if they have been studying for a while. This most often predicts bad luck in love, health, and business.
This dream can alternatively predict that you will go on a long trip. While the trip itself will be enjoyable, you are likely to be sad at times as you miss the people who you left at home.
Ruler
Using a ruler in your dream can suggest that you have low self-confidence. You may feel like you do not measure up to your peers. This dream suggests that you are judging yourself too hard. Try to ease up on yourself.
Rules
Dreaming that you are making the rules can suggest that you need to find more balance in your life, but you will need to become more disciplined to do this. You cannot rely on anyone to do this for you. You will need to learn how to do it for yourself.
Dreaming that you are following the rules suggests that you are proud that you can follow your own moral codes. You know how to stand up for what you believe in. This is a good trait to have.
Trying to argue the rules but not actually breaking them suggests that you have an internal struggle in your mind. It would help if you learned how to resolve this problem with yourself before externalizing your negative emotions.
Breaking the rules outright implies that you feel frustrated about something that is going on in your waking life. You may feel like someone else is not treating you the way that you deserve to be treated. This can be a sign that now is a good time to stand up for yourself and show everyone how you really feel.
Rum
Drinking rum in your dream predicts good luck in wealth but bad luck in your social life. This bad luck does not have to happen, but if you do not change your attitude, it will likely happen. Keep your morals in check, or else you will likely lose friends.
See Alcohol* for further dream symbolism.
Rumor
Spreading rumors in your dream can be a sign that you are feeling insecure about yourself. You may be trying to compensate for this by making others out to seem worse than they actually are.
Hearing a rumor can suggest that you need to listen to your gut more often. Do not take everything at face value; you can’t always believe the person telling you something. Make sure that you know all of the information before you form an opinion about something.
Run
Running in your dream can represent your feelings of wanting to run away from a situation in your waking life. Since you cannot actually run away from your problems, this dream is a visualization of your need to get out.
If you fall while you are running, then this predicts that you are losing energy. This will give way to your enemies being able to target your reputation more easily. Please do what you can to make sure that they cannot do this.
Running alone can imply that you feel like you are either much farther ahead or behind your friends in the way that you are developing, learning, or working. This could also represent your current social life, namely being that you don’t have much of one. Slow down or speed up to make room for your friends in your waking life.
If you are running away from something and manage to get away, this suggests that you can change your situation that you are trying to run away from. All you have to do is make the first move.
If you are running in a race for fun, this can predict that some entertaining event will come shortly. You are sure to have fun and spend time with your friends at this event.
If you see other people running, then this can suggest that you feel like your friends are taking advantage of getting too far ahead of you in your waking life. You may be worried that you will lose them. The best way to combat this is to hang out with them more often.
If you are trying to run, but your feet will not obey you for whatever reason, this dream could be a sign of low self-confidence or low motivation levels. You want to do something, but you can’t actually seem to be able to start.
Runaway
Dreaming that you are a runaway can suggest that you feel like you don’t belong to any certain group. You may feel like an outsider.
This dream could alternatively suggest that you are not letting yourself feel like you belong. You have the potential to fit in, but you are not letting yourself.
Rune Stones
Seeing or using rune stones in your dream can suggest that you need to find a way to become more spiritual in your waking life. This could involve becoming more involved in your current religion or by doing something meditative instead.

Rupture
Dreaming that some part of your ruptures suggests that you are ill or injured, and you need to do something about it quickly. If you are not ill or injured, this can suggest that your personality is becoming foul. Doing something about this won’t change your health, but it will make your social life better.
Seeing someone else rupture is a sign that your social life is suffering. Avoid arguments shortly, as one could end a friendship.
Rush
Rushing to do something in your dream suggests that you need to learn how to manage your time in your waking life better.
This dream can alternatively suggest that you are putting too much pressure on yourself to speed up. You may feel like you are falling behind your peers, making you feel like you need to rush to advance. Know that everyone advances at their own pace, so you do not need to feel bad about this problem.
Rust
Seeing rust on something suggests that you are having trouble growing in your current environment. You need to change something about your surroundings or something about yourself if you wish to advance.
This can also be a sign of bad luck in your social life, health, and wealth.
Looking up, what was rusted can also provide you with further dream symbolism.
RV
Seeing an RV in your dream suggests that you need to get out more. Do things that will make your life feel fuller. Travel, spending time with loved ones, and just doing the things you love are all things that can help. The more of these things you do, the better you are likely to feel.
