Analysis for Mary Joseph, 27 March 2008

This is how you described the room:

the room is very warm adn ifeel really comfortable in it. It has a huge window and a forest outside. It's a living room with a 42 inch plasma tv. The floor is covered with black carpet. The walls are coated with white paint.

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 (83.31%). This comfortable room suggests a childhood that was pleasant (98.38%).

You wanted to stay in the room.

The subject did not want to grow up.

This is how you described the forest:

It's very dark but green. There are tall pine trees all over with threee coconuts hanging form each one of them.

The forest is growing up, and the trees are those adults with whom the subject interacted at that time. A very dark forest tells us that the subject felt considerably oppressed by the attentions of the adults (62.11%). Tall trees imply that the adults had a strong influence on the subject (97.58%).

This is how you described the path:

It is easily navigated. Its wide and abandoned but clearly marked.

Adolescence is represented by the path through the forest. A wide path indicates that the subject had numerous options for emotional growth at this time (89.66%). The visibility of the path tells us that the subject had a good idea of what to expect from adolescence (99.89%). The lack of evidence of fellow travelers suggests strong feelings of isolation at that time (52.34%). That the path is free of obstructions indicates that the subject had no problems during adolescence (99.44%).

This is how you described the water:

its a narrow stream. Water is blue, shiny and crystal clear. Also its swimmable.

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 (99.89%). The movement of the water suggests a normal, average if somewhat playful sex drive (61.24%).

When you came to the water, you went around it.

The subject is not interested in new sexual experiences.

This is how you described the cup:

its a white cup with an abstract design.

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 (84.62%).

You left the cup behind.

The subject is not interested in marriage.

This is how you described the key:

the key is ancient but silver colored. its to unlock ancient treasure.

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 (91.42%). Decorative keys suggest that the subject wants an attention-grabbing, one-of-a-kind career (52.11%).

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.

The wall represents death: by jumping over it, the subject not only acknowledges death but has come to accept its finality.
