Four ways to read it
Each reading below comes from a named tradition and a cited source, so you can see where it came from and decide what fits your dream.
Freud
Freud would read a small stone as a slight but solid token, something modest that the mind has chosen to hold. Its smallness may stand for a minor worry given more weight than its size warrants, or a small thing oddly treasured.
After Freud, The Interpretation of Dreams (Brill trans., 1913), public domain.Jung
Jung might see the pebble as a humble piece of the enduring earth, worn round by long handling of time and water. A single small stone can carry meaning out of all proportion to its size when the self fixes on it.
Jungian concept (our summary).Modern
The continuity view ties a pebble to waking notice of small details, keepsakes, or little matters underfoot. Whether it feels precious or merely in the way usually names the concern behind it.
Continuity hypothesis (our summary).Mythological
Stones gathered meaning in folk custom as markers of memory and tokens of the dead, a pebble laid on a grave or a cairn built one stone at a time. The plain small stone was treated as a vessel of remembrance.
