If an ability allows you to do something on or during “each of your turns”, that permission resets after your ending phase. For example, if you control Muldrotha, the Gravetide (“During each of your turns, you may play a land and cast a permanent spell of each permanent type from your graveyard”) and you cast a creature spell from your graveyard during your second main phase, you won’t be able to cast another creature spell from your graveyard with Muldrotha’s permission until after your next ending phase ends.

When the phase during which Runed Terror entered the battlefield ends, the next player in turn order will begin that same phase.
