This is how you described the room:

Bright Random Stickers, fruit giant furniture, and kiwi rugs mushroom tables.

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 significant detail in the description of the room tells us that the subject has rich, lasting memories of childhood (49.70%). This comfortable room suggests a childhood that was pleasant (61.85%).

You wanted to leave the room.

The subject wanted to become an adult.

This is how you described the forest:

Trees with Red Yellow and orange leaves. Early dusk,with a setting sun. Smells like camp fire.

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 (58.27%). Average-sized trees imply the normal influence adults have on a child: neither insignificant nor impressive (98.69%).

This is how you described the path:

Ground is covered in crunchy leaves but clear over all. Some branches, wide enough for two, well traveled in the past.

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 (90.62%). The visibility of the path tells us that the subject had a good idea of what to expect from adolescence (99.06%). 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 (89.09%). That the path is free of obstructions indicates that the subject had no problems during adolescence (91.39%).

This is how you described the water:

A big creek twenty feet across, clear, with some rocks around it. Clean and moving really fast.

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 (99.97%). Fast-moving water indicates a strong, active sex drive (64.47%).

When you came to the water, you crossed it.

The subject is open to new sexual experiences.

This is how you described the cup:

Plastic Bottle red, damaged, smells.

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 (47.68%).

You took the cup but left it empty.

The subject is interested in marriage, but sex won’t be a significant part of that relationship.

This is how you described the key:

Large cow prints, it would open a large wooden door, attached to a cave, about 10yards from the path.

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 (95.63%). Old-fashioned keys suggest that the subject desires a traditional career (76.06%).

You confronted the bear.

In a crisis, the subject prefers the direct, no-nonsense 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.
