Provisional Analysis for Anonymous, 14 January 2010

This is how you described the room:

the room is cold, it almost seems barren. I'm laying on a couch in the corner, all around me are miscellanious furnishings. The walls are concrete

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 (41.81%). The depth of description tells us that the subject has strong memories of childhood (27.67%).

You wanted to leave the room.

The subject wanted to become an adult.

This is how you described the forest:

The forest is thick, almost impassable. The trees are very tall. I can barely find my way.

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 (28.16%). Tall trees imply that the adults had a strong influence on the subject (53.49%).

This is how you described the path:

The trail is narrow and obsructed. It makes many detours and i have to track it to find my way

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 (60.66%). The lack of evidence of fellow travelers suggests strong feelings of isolation at that time (58.09%). The visibility of the path tells us that the subject had a good idea of what to expect from adolescence (53.70%). A narrow path suggests that the subject had limited options for emotional growth at this time (66.03%).

This is how you described the water:

it's a deep and strong river, abundant with life. The waters are clear and cold

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 (89.17%). The movement of the water suggests a normal, average if somewhat playful sex drive (32.12%).

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's a wooden cup with a few strange markings. Stained with blood.

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 (63.04%).

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:

The key is small, but intricate and slightly ornate. It most likely unlocks something of sentmental value to someone else

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 (46.65%). Having the key open a house, car, or other commonplace use tells us that the subject has no extraordinary expectations about a career (55.10%).

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.
