[2]Ring Dream Interpretation
Like all round and closed figures, the ring symbolizes continuity and wholeness. Therefore, it serves as a symbol of marriage and also represents the bond to a particular affiliation, group, or society. It also provides confidence and power because of the support it symbolizes. The presence of a ring in your dreams portends engagement or a declaration of love, as well as the consolidation of an incorporation. Of course, whatever happens to the ring in dreams it could also apply to what it represents. In this way, a broken alliance foreshadows divorce or separation; losing a ring promises disputes with the person who gave it to you; to put it on someone else denotes the desire to exercise dominion over that person, etc. Rings, in addition to the above, show loyalty to your own principles and ideals. They can also refer to an oath or promise. Finally, by being the symbol of eternity, without beginning or end, the ring represents the true self.
The condition of the omen varies whether you receive or lose the ring. In the first case, the omens are good. In the latter, you will face some challenges. When you find the ring by chance, it means that you will soon have a new friend or a new lover. Finally, certain traditions assert that dreaming that you receive a ring means the breaking of promise.
[3]Ring Dream Interpretation
Symbol: The ring represents a bond or vow to share your destiny with another person or a community—a beginning without end.
Vision: In a woman’s dream, a ring on a finger or slipping a ring on a finger is a sign that she can’t let go of an old relationship. Dreaming about a ring that won’t come off: letting go of a relationship is even more difficult than you had anticipated. Finding a ring: things in your love relationship are going well.
A broken ring: a separation is unavoidable. Losing a ring: your lover or spouse is unfaithful or you are temporarily separated. Seeing two rings: either a budding love relationship or marriage. Pulling a ring off your finger: your affair will have nasty consequences.
Depth Psychology: The ring represents the relationship you have with the person who gave you the ring or to whom you gave the ring.

The ring, whether for an engagement or a wedding, is a symbol of commitment. It says, ‘We’re together and we’re in it for the long haul.’ In reality this could indicate you’re about to enter into an agreement with someone, either on a personal or professional level.
