This is how you described the room:

it's warm, it has fuzzy blankets that cover me. Next to me is my boyfriend kissing me.

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 depth of description tells us that the subject has strong memories of childhood (53.62%). This comfortable room suggests a childhood that was pleasant (93.54%).

You wanted to stay in the room.

The subject did not want to grow up.

This is how you described the forest:

Jungle trees. Tall. moss on them. The trail leads into the mountains.

The forest is growing up, and the trees are those adults with whom the subject interacted at that time. A semi-dark forest tells us that the subject felt somewhat oppressed by the attention the adults gave (58.41%). Tall trees imply that the adults had a strong influence on the subject (63.11%).

This is how you described the path:

path leads into mountains. Mountains are snowy.

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 (64.92%). Poor visibility of the path tells us the subject was often confused by the changes brought on by adolescence (63.66%). 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 (94.96%). That the path is free of obstructions indicates that the subject had no problems during adolescence (67.81%).

This is how you described the water:

it is amoving river. Green river.

The water is the subject’s sexuality. What interests us here is the clarity of the water (representing attitude) and its movement (representing libido). Murky, dirty, or otherwise unclear water suggests that the subject has significant issues regarding sex (61.39%). Fast-moving water indicates a strong, active sex drive (34.98%).

When you came to the water, you crossed it.

The subject is open to new sexual experiences.

This is how you described the cup:

it has a little vodka left. I bury it so the animals won't step on it.

The vessel, or specifically the practicality of the vessel, is how the subject approaches marriage or bonding. A container that is both decorative and practical indicates that the subject considers both romantic and pragmatic aspects of marriage (35.29%).

You left the cup behind.

The subject is not interested in marriage.

This is how you described the key:

the key unlocks a little cabin. The key is made of pure gold.

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). Keys that allow access to treasure or other valuable things indicate that the subject is fixated on gaining wealth through a career (46.43%). Decorative keys suggest that the subject wants an attention-grabbing, one-of-a-kind career (70.76%).

You avoided the bear.

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

When you came to the wall, you tried to go around it.

The wall represents death: by trying to walk around it, the subject shows an acknowledgment of death, but also a need for an alternative to its finality, such as an afterlife or reincarnation.
