Rockslide

To dream of a rockslide represents insensitive difficulties that overwhelm you or tough situations that catch you off guard. A lot of hard feelings, harsh intentions, difficulties at once that don't go away easily. A rockslide may also reflect a sudden or unexpected escalation of very difficult problems. Everything that can go wrong all happening at once. A surprise worst case scenario in your life. A sudden tragedy or crisis.

Rodeo

To dream of the rodeo represents an exhibition or competition of skills. You or someone else that is trying to do something better than everyone else for as long as they can. Trying prove to others that you are the best at something.

Alternatively, a rodeo may reflect risks that are being taken to show off.

Failure at a rodeo may mirror waking life failure or embarrassment while attempting to prove that you are the best at something.
