Analysis

The Forest & the Path
The Cup = Wealth
The Water = Sex
The Bear = Stress & Problems: How you deal with them
The Beach = How you relate to people

The Forest & the Path

The Forest is your 'life' & how you see it. If you selected a forest in daylight this would strongly suggest you are generally very happy. The more light your see in the forest the more content you're likely to be with your life. If you selected a forest at night, it suggests there are some major things in your life that you'd like to change or are dissatisfied with and that you're likely to be under stress for some reason. If you selected a forest at dusk or dawn this would suggest something in between, that there are one or two things in your life that you'd like to change.

If you saw a path in the forest you're not yet settled into your life as it is. Younger people usually see a path. Why is this? The path is symbolic of where you're going. People still finding their way in life are more likely to see a path. Those more settled in their direction or place in life (usually older people) are less likely to see a path.

The Cup = Wealth

The cup is symbolic of 'Wealth" and your approach to it. The question gave you the chance to see any sort of cup. A tea cup, a sporting trophy, a tin cup, even a steaming cup of coffee! This question gave you the opportunity to reward yourself. If said you saw a cup that appeared valuable then you rewarded yourself with something of value to you. If you didn't see a valuable cup then you didn't give yourself a reward when the opportunity arose.

If you left the cup alone you were given the chance to take a reward but left it behind you. Either wealth has no real value to you or 'Wealth' is something you think you've got to work for.

If you picked the cup up and then put it down again you were given the chance to take a reward and then you found an immediate use for the cup and used it there & then. Many people see a cup of tea or coffee & drink it. Did you do something similar? You left the chance for reward behind you & found a practical use for the cup. You took a 'here & now' approach to the reward.

If you used the cup but then left it behind it means that you were given the chance to take a reward, you were curious enough to pick the cup up, but left it behind you. Either wealth has no real value to you or 'Wealth' is something you think you've got to work for.

If you took the cup with you then you probably saw a cup that was in some way valuable to you. You saw the chance to quickly reward yourself with easy pickings & you took it.

The Water = Sex

This is the one you've been waiting for. Water is symbolic of SEX for everyone, even more so for women. The depth and speed of the water you see is indicative of your attitude, appetite & approach to SEX.

The speed at which you see water moving is an indicator of you appetite for sex. But, not necessarily your need. The slower the water, the lower your appetite. The faster the water, the greater your appetite.

The depth of the water is an indicator of how you see & what you want from sex. If you saw shallow water then you are able to reach fulfillment from deep & intense lovemaking. But you enjoy a 'quickie' just as much. In fact it's probably a preference. If you saw fast moving water too, 'little & often' is for you.

If you saw deep waters then your love for the 'deep & intense' doesn't mean you cannot enjoy the 'quickie', it's just not a preference. You get true fulfillment from deeper & more intense lovemaking. For you, still waters run deep.

The ease with which you cross the water is an indicator of your attitude & approach to sex. The more easily you crossed the water, the more comfortable or liberal you're likely to be in your approach to sex.

The Bear = Stress & Problems: How you deal with them

The bear is symbolic of problems & how you deal with them. The question gave you the chance to see a problem. If you saw a Teddy-Bear or Winnie-the-Pooh then in relative terms your life is stress free & when given a problem you don't see one. You're pretty happy with life too.

If you saw a real bear you were given the chance to see a problem. People under routine-stress will see large & very dangerous bears.

Equally a bear you're ignoring or was ignoring you, is indicative of how you see stress & problems when they're presented to you.

If the bear hasn't see you or has seen you but is doing cute 'bear type' things then you don't have many real problems in your life. You're not under everyday stress or worry. Given the chance to see a problem, you didn't see one. No bad thing.

If the bear has seen you but is minding his own business then whilst you have the usual problems in your life, you're not under unhealthy levels of stress or worry.

If the bear has seen you and is looking threatening you need a holiday! You're under high levels of stress or worry. This could be unhealthy.

How you get round the bear is indicative of how you deal with problems & how you resolve them. If you answered that you were considering adoption then your approach is very different to other people's. Unfortunately for them, most people are under much more stress than you.

The Beach = How you relate to people

The beach is symbolic of how you relate to people around you. How many people you pictured on the beach relates directly to the number of people you want around you. A truly socially gregarious person is most comfortable in the company of a large number of people, and seeks the audience (this personality type sees a beach packed with people). At the opposite end of the scale, those people that see a deserted beach are happy with their own company. They're very happy to spend long periods on their own where others would feel lonely.

If you saw hundreds then you're quite a social animal, a person that's very comfortable in a crowded pub, club or bar. You may even seek them out. You may like an audience. Where're you going toni or two people then you're a person who wouldn't want to spend a whole lot of time in crowded pubs, clubs or bars. You prefer talking to one or two people rather than a group. You can be a social animal, but you're often content with your own company. The vast majority of people see a beach with one or two people on it.

If you didn't see any people then you're a person least comfortable in a crowded pub, club or bar. You may even avoid them. You've the potential to be a social animal, but you wouldn't get lonely stranded on a desert island. You're content for long periods of time with your own company.Where you see people on the beach is symbolic of how you relate to people around you. If you saw people close enough to talk to then this suggests you want contact with other people most of the time.

If you saw people that weren't close enough to talk to then this suggests you don't need contact with other people all of the time, but like to know that someone is there for you.

If you saw people in the distance then you don't need contact with other people all of the time. You're happy with you own company.
