Analysis for Sofia, 29 January 2006

This is how you described the room:

its kinda dark but there is some light coming through there are a lot of dark wood furniture its kinda craped and the outside seems warmer than the inside

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. The items in the room are average, which tells us that the subject has the normal memories of childhood (94.42%). This comfortable room suggests a childhood that was pleasant (81.73%).

You wanted to leave the room.

The subject wanted to become an adult.

This is how you described the forest:

in the forest there is a lot of loght the trees are tall and green...the path on which im walking on is dirt but all around me there is greenness

The forest is growing up, and the trees are those adults with whom the subject interacted at that time. A well-lit forest tells us that the subject had considerable freedom at this time (39.19%). Tall trees imply that the adults had a strong influence on the subject (87.63%).

This is how you described the path:

the pathis kinda narrow but not that narrow its well traveled its clearly marked..

Adolescence is represented by the path through the forest. A narrow path suggests that the subject had limited options for emotional growth at this time (99.86%). The visibility of the path tells us that the subject had a good idea of what to expect from adolescence (99.54%). The strong evidence of fellow travelers tells us that the subject received a lot of support from friends and family during that potentially troubling time (74.59%). That the path is free of obstructions indicates that the subject had no problems during adolescence (99.34%).

This is how you described the water:

its a little river its eally nice and the sand at the borrom is glittering its really peacefull and running pretty slow

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 (95.82%). Slow, gently moving water suggests a passive, restrained, calm sex drive (76.42%).

When you came to the water, you crossed it.

The subject is open to new sexual experiences.

This is how you described the cup:

its an antique metal cup like a kings cup

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 (76.19%).

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:

its a metal key it unlocks a house, on the woods an old little house

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). Having the key open a house, car, or other commonplace use tells us that the subject has no extraordinary expectations about a career (93.06%). An ordinary-looking key suggests that the subject desires a nondescript career (54.80%).

You avoided the bear.

In a crisis, the subject prefers the indirect, non-confrontational approach.

When you came to the wall, you turned around and walked back along the path.

The wall represents death: by avoiding it altogether, the subject shows complete denial about the possibility of death.
