The Eye of Ra (the most common Egyptian eye drawn today) symbolizes the all-seeing eye of the sun god Ra. It's like saying "He is always watching you; meaning both watching over you and watching what you do"

The Eye of Ra was used as a symbol of protection in many ancient cultures.

It sybolizes everything it would symbolize outside of a Dream. You want protection and are possibly feeling intimidated, scared. When we dream of distinct symbols it's usually the subconscious in our minds trying to tell us something. I would assume that you have read the meaning somewhere and you brain used knowledge that you had acquired at an earlier period in your life to send you a message. I would say be careful.

In ancient Egypt the eye was used as a funeral amulet as protection against evil and rebirth in the underworld, and for decorating mummies, coffins, and tombs. The Book of the Dead instructs that funerary eye amulets be made out of lapis lazuli or a stone called mak; some were gold-plated.

When worn as jewelry fashioned of gold, silver, lapis, wood, porcelain, or carnelian the eye served to ensure safety, protect health, and provide the wearer with wisdom and prosperity; it was called the "all-seeing Eye." Other attributes associated with it are terror and wrath; some myths tell that the eye seems to assume a personality of its own, swooping down from the sky to right wrongs. The latter attributes appear to come from the legend that after the eye was torn out by Seth, it was restored by Isis, and thence symbolized security of kingship, perfection and protection against the evil influence of Seth.
