What does it mean when you dream about a rock?

Rocks usually embody stability and permanence, as signified by the expression “solid as a rock.” A large rock or boulder in a dream may indicate the dreamer is making a commitment to a relationship or contemplating some change that will provide a more solid foundation.

Rocks

(dreams)

The connotation of this symbol as with all other dream symbols, depends on the details and the mood of the dream. The rock or rocks in your dream could represent a variety of different ideas, but it usually has something to do with matters of this physical world. Rocks generally do not represent emotional, psychological, or spiritual issues. Rather, they may represent earthiness, sturdiness, stability, and a solid foundation. On the other hand, they could represent physical obstacles or difficulties which the dreamer may need to overcome.
