This is how you described the room:
the room is small dim and slightly messy. there are flowery warm loving pictures on the wall. The room is very comfortably warm and inviting.
The initial room is the subject’s childhood. What interests us here is the general atmosphere of the room, in addition to the level of furnishings described by the subject. This comfortable room suggests a childhood that was pleasant. The depth of description tells us that the subject has strong memories of childhood.

This is how you described the forest:
There are thick bushy pine trees loosely spaced and there are glimmers of light dancing through the branches. The area is well lighted but is shaded and cool.
The forest is growing up, and the trees are those adults with whom the subject interacted at that time. Average lighting tells us that the subject received enough attention from the adults to be guided but not oppressed. Tall trees imply that the adults had a strong influence on the subject.
This is how you described the path:
The path is narrow with slow bending curves that accend gradually into the hills but clear and easily manageable
Adolescence is represented by the path through the forest. That the path is free of obstructions indicates that the subject had no problems during adolescence. The visibility of the path tells us that the subject had a good idea of what to expect from adolescence. A narrow path suggests that the subject had limited options for emotional growth at this time.
This is how you described the water:
It is a small secluded cool stream, the water is moving swiftly almost dancing over the rocks at the bottom. the water in crystal clear and cool with slight whitecaps as the water passes.
The water is the subject’s sexuality. What interests us here is the clarity of the water (representing attitude) and its movement (representing libido). Clear water tells us that the subject has no issues regarding sex. Fast-moving water indicates a strong, active sex drive.

This is how you described the cup:
it is a small redwood bucket with a polished glimmering brass handle inside the bucket is a clean yet antique looking dipper to drink from.
The vessel, or specifically the practicality of the vessel, is how the subject approaches marriage or bonding. A practical container indicates that the subject is pragmatic when it comes to questions of marriage.
You took the cup and filled it.
The subject is interested in marriage, and sex will be a significant part of that relationship.
This is how you described the key:
it is an old style skeleton key but is still clean as though it is still being used, and filled with many memories. I believe that it goes to a beautiful white two story home with the white picket fence, children playing on the swing out back and the dog at the gate to meet you.
The key is the ideal career for the subject. What interests us here is how the key appears (representing how others view the career) and what it may open (representing the subject’s goals for the career). Old-fashioned keys suggest that the subject desires a traditional career. Having the key open a house, car, or other commonplace use tells us that the subject has no extraordinary expectations about a career.
You avoided the bear.
In a crisis, the subject prefers the indirect, non-confrontational approach.
When you came to the wall, you jumped over it.
