To dream of radio receiving sets indicates that you are a clairaudient channel. Clairaudience is a gift where you literally hear messages from the spirit world. Mostly the messages are heard as lines from songs popping into your head. The segment of the song will repeat over and over making you wonder why you can’t get it out of your head. Once you accept it is a message, it immediately changes to a line from another song or stops if it is the end of the message. It can also work through hearing lines from movies.

Rain, like any symbol of water, represents life or your spiritual nature. Getting caught in the rain is very positive as it means letting life in. Sheltering from rain is about avoiding life or some specific aspect that you need to include in your life. For example, rain falling onto a car engine asks you to let life into your heart. Rushing out to close the bonnet / hood when the rain starts would mean that you do not want to let that happen.

A rat can also symbolize betrayal as in being ratted on.

While rear can be about the past (what is behind you), it is also a pun on rearing. This can either be about your childhood and events back then or about you raising children. Other symbols in the dream will be specific about the issues.

Red symbolizes joy, sexuality, aggression, animal passion and fun. It is the color associated with your base chakra which is responsible for keeping you grounded.

Red in dreams often indicates passion and joy. In a negative context it symbolizes anger. For example, to dream of your fiancé in a dress with a red border would indicate that your passion is border line in the relationship.

Red is an energizing color and is often used in dreams to give you the energy to be passionate about life. This is especially true when dreaming of red and white. For example, to dream of your deceased son greeting you wearing a red and white shirt attempts to restore your lost joy and hope in life after his death. It is common after such dreams to wake up feeling like you can once again get on with your life.

Red and black indicates anger. For example, to dream of following a woman wearing a black and red dress would indicate that you copied (followed) your mother’s anger (black and red). The dream is identifying the source of your anger so you can do something to eliminate it.

Dark red, maroon and auburn can indicate frigidity – fear linked to sexuality.

Restrooms have to do with elimination. The elimination being asked for can be a negative trait, the effects of a trauma or the negative influence of someone in your life.

 When dreams focus on the physical toilet it is about your physical elimination system. For example, if the toilet is blocked with milk cartons it means your body cannot eliminate milk or dairy products properly so you need to cut down on dairy products or cut them out of your diet.

A toilet bowl symbolizes your bowel.

To dream of a river is a request to develop a natural flow to whatever spiritual aspect is the subject of the dream. It means this because water represents spirituality and rivers carve their own course to the sea. Spirituality is expression of your soul and in dreams is not connected with religion. The specific aspect is given by other symbols in the dream; however, you may already know what it is. If you are already practicing the aspect in question, it may be that you are blindly following someone else’s instruction when you need to put your unique stamp on it.

A dirty or polluted river is about your blood stream. Most likely something you are eating is causing toxins to get into your blood stream. Look for food symbols in the same dream. Dreams often show the color of the food rather than the food itself. For example, brown could indicate chocolate and white could indicate milk or dairy products. Recall what you have eaten in the last few days and look for something in common each time you have a similar dream.

A river bank is about your heart if the bank is green. This is for two reasons. The first is that banks represent the heart and circulatory system and the second is that the color green is associated with the heart chakra.

More often the river bank is muddy in dreams and this is about your colon. If the river is also polluted the dream is making a direct link between your colon / digestive system and your blood stream. If you are looking at something in the water such as baby crabs it is a warning of cancer of the colon. In these dreams it is more important to determine the trigger food and eliminate it or cut it down in your diet. Dreams of cancer are only serious if you have them consistently night after night.

A road can symbolize where you are currently going in life. This does not necessarily tie in with where you think you are going!

Driving along a road indicates striving toward ideals / goals – getting closer to where you need to be. It can also symbolize moving forward mentally or spiritually.

A road alongside a river or the shore line is about your spiritual path. It is common in these dreams for the road to flood in places. In this way the dream is encouraging you to get even deeper into your spiritual quest.

A dirt road symbolizes your colon – the dirt road in your body.

A main arterial road symbolizes your heart and circulatory system.

A dark road means you cannot see where you are going. This invariably means that you are unaware of the direction your actions are taking you. Other symbols in the dream will show why this is the case.

An endless road normally indicates the karmic path and more particularly being caught on a karmic cycle. Spiritually, this is where you live a life with the intention of repaying all your karmic debts. However, something does not work out right for you and when you review your life on your return to the spirit world, you discover that you either have not paid all your debts or that you have incurred others. The result is that you plan another life to repay your new debts! Your dream shows this happened to you at least once. The big question is how many times? The purpose of pointing this out is so you ensure you do not make similar mistakes this time.

Road junctions in dreams symbolize choices or conflict ahead.

A T-junction means you face a difficult choice that requires you to change the direction you are currently taking with regard to the subject matter of the dream.

A Y-Junction also indicates change but does not require you to change direction as much. The new direction will only be subtly different from your current course.

A crossroads indicates difficulty ahead on your path. You have to take care at a crossroads to ensure your movements do not collide with others.

Playing Russian roulette with your friends in a dream could indicate engaging in promiscuous sexual activity without a condom. In such cases you are not only having sex with your partner, but each of the partners he / she has slept with before you. Just like the Russian roulette in the dream, the more people that go before you, the greater the risk to your life when it is your turn.

Rust indicates a progressive illness, such as cancer. Where the rust is warns of where the threat could manifest. For example, rust on the fridge warns of cancer of the stomach.
