Please help me find the meaning of "Regua Por Nosotros"
My late husband wore a charm, one side has a figure standing on what looks like a scale or a boat with people on it. The other side says "Regua Por Nosotros" Any help would be greatly appreciated. Does anyone know what the figure represents? I am sure it is religous but he never told me what it means. Thank you so much.

Are you sure that you spelled it correctly? see this link concerning Ruega por nosotros
Spanish has the verb Rogar that can mean to beg, to ask, to pray for
Using your spelling all that I could find were Portuguese references
The image of the scale could possible refer to Judgment if it's indeed religious. If it has anything to do with Rosa Mystica here is a link that might interest you.
Ruega also means pray, from the verb rogar.
It might be,"reza por nosotros" it means pray for us. I dont know the meaning of the picture.
Undoubtedly a reference to the Hail Mary in Spanish which ends with the words:
Santa María, Madre de Dios, ruega por nosotros, pecadores, ahora y en la hora de nuestra muerte.
