I figured the dream had a lot to do with my desires to declutter this place! I answered #1, and then realized, as I packed my purse for the Vegas Weekend, that I have an umbrella in my purse.

roflmao!!! LK, too funny! Well I have been caught in the rain ~ happened just the other day actually ~ so I went with what I did/do. However, I do not like the answer for one of them so...can I put it in small font like LK did! lol! My answers: #1 - Awning/tree; and #2 - run for it. I actually like walking in the rain AND I'm close to my destination/already wet anyway. I wouldn't say I shout ppl down but I guess I have been known to "hold my own." (closest emoticon to blushing) ~~ slinks out now...lol!

According to the SoulFuture Dream Dictionary, I was fairly close: garbage Interpretation: Aspects of self that need to be cleansed or released Cleaning up your life, ridding yourself of things that represent dead energy Relief or release of something unwanted, good riddance to bad rubbish Dismissing something, possibly without hearing it through first Being destructive, trashing or destroying something Something that is deemed to be worthless or useless

LOL I have an umbrella in my suitcase! (I heard there were t-storms in vegas!) These are pretty much right on! 3. Those who said the bird turns white are cool and decisive under pressure. You don't waste time on fretting and indecision, even when a crisis develops. If a situation gets too bad, you feel it's better to cut your losses and look for another route to your goal rather than getting bogged down in needless grief. This proactive approach means that things seem to just naturally go your way. 1. "Isn't that a beautiful picture?" Your friendly and positive nature creates a great first impression on almost everyone you meet. Your only concern should be that people may not take you seriously at first. 2. A pile of loose trash spills out onto the street. Those of you who said the can was full of loose trash may seem to be straightforward and forthright to others but actually have a pile of unexpressed feelings locked up within. You may notice these feelings only as a general sense of frustration, but when you think about it, aren't there places where you've been holding back from saying the things you really feel? 2. "I don't know how long it's going to keep raining, so I'd run to where I'm going as fast as I could." You don't care about the end result of a fight so much as getting to speak your mind. You're sure you're right, and there's no sense in arguing the point. The concept of give-and-take doesn't figure into your tactics. If they get angry, you get angrier. If they start to yell, you scream. This doesn't make you much fun to argue with, but at least it's easy to tell where you stand on an issue.

These are great! mine have been pretty much right on: White bird; Do you have the time? in the museum; empty garbage can; and duck under a tree or awning in the rain.

I picked White, isn't it beautiful, loose trash and run to where I am going. IF that makes me just like Zachsmom and Tess, then I am happy to accept it   In truthfulness, I would never run. I love the rain and , if it started to pour I would probably just continue to walk at the pace I was going. I suppose the analysis of my personality would still be the same though. I would hold my ground in a fight and not listen so much to the other side. That is a definite failing of mine.

Followed the link from Clubhouse tales and I LOVE this thread. Thanks Cindori. I'm reading from the beginning. Golden Bird - not too accurate, fearless I'm not Beautiful Picture - I'd like to think it's accurate Loose Trash #2- Right On Share or buy and Umbrella - Maybe more true than I would like to admit Looking forward to the next question.

This one is a little different - I just want to see how well this type goes over, as they're a little more involved. A Desert Journey Your desktop is spilling over with unfinished paperwork; the rest of the office has already gone home for the night. you look up at the clock and it laughs back. You wonder, with a sinking feeling inside, if this job will ever be done. The professor drones on and on through a three-hour double lecture on the world's most boring subject. There's no space left for doodles in your notebook, and you're only thirty minutes into the class. You begin to think you've somehow been frozen in time. Waiting can be a special form of torture, worse than any momentary pain. The combination of frustration and boredom can send even the bravest heart into a state of panic. Our journey will bring us face-to-face with the infinite. Take a moment to prepare yourself, and enter the eternal desert . . . 1. You are riding a camel across the vast and empty expanse of a seemingly endless desert. You have ridden until you are near exhaustion. What words would you say to the camel that has carried you all the way? 2. Just at the point when you thought you'd die of thirst, a beautiful oasis appears. But someone has arrived before you. Who is this other traveler? (Use the name of a person you know.) 3. Time passes slowly in the desert, and it feels like an eternity before the lights of a town appear on the horizon. You have finally reached your destination. What are your feelings as you come to your journey's end? 4. The time has come to part with the camel you have ridden for so long. Just as you dismount, a new rider climbs into the saddle to take your place. Who is the new rider? (Name another person in your life.) What your answers mean . . . The desert and camel theme symbolizes the journey toward personal independence. Specifically, this scenario reveals your feelings about parting with a lover. Your answers show how you might react when the time comes to go your separate ways. 1. The words you spoke to the camel reveal what you might say to yourself when you realize love has been lost. Did you try words of encouragement like "We'll make it through somehow!" or "Don't worry, this can't go on forever"? Or was there a hint of despair - "We're lost . . . this is hopeless . . . I think we're going to die out here"? 2. In psychological terms, the oasis symbolizes the key to solving one's problems. The person you encountered here could be somehow who has helped or comforted you in the past or one you might turn to in times of need. 3. The town at journey's end stands for the order restored to your emotions once you've recovered from your broken heart. Your feelings upon reaching the town are your true feelings about finally getting over a lost love. 4. The new rider is a person toward whom you feel a secret rivalry, jealousy, or resentment. Is the person you named a rival in love or maybe someone who once broke your heart? Let me know what you guys think of this kind, ok?

1. my words were words of encouragement (and I did say them in the true life situation!) 2. the person I pictured in the oasis is my best friend so that fits. 3. I thought "thank God". So I guess that fits. 4. The new rider was my Mom and this doesn't fit at all. I more pictured her as another person just trying to ride through the quagmires of life. at least I don't think it fits but who ever knows with Mother/ Daughter relationships!

These are fun Cindori. I had to play catch up since I somehow missed this thread. Here is my answers: 2. The bird turns back to its original blue. 2. "What do you think of this painting?" 2. A pile of loose trash spills out onto the street. 2. "I don't know how long it's going to keep raining, so I'd run to where I'm going as fast as I could." That's kinda strange...all my answers are 2. Camel: 1. I thanked the camel for carrying me cause I know I couldn't have made it without him. 2. I thought of the oasis as heavenly and pictured my Dad. 3. Relief that the journey was over and I had arrived. 4. I named my son. That doesn't fit. I named him because I was thinking even though the journey was hard, it was worth it once you got there.

I have found this little corner pretty enjoyable, too, Cindori. My answers exactly match Kady's on 1-4. I had an interesting experience with the camel... I even shed tears! I told the camel that he was a dear and faithful friend and that I could not have gone this far without him. It was so unusual that I tested it on my sister who had the same reaction right down to the crying...must be a family thing. Anyway, she suggests that since we are dealing with a beloved pet who is coming to the end of life, we are transferring our feelings about said pet to that dang camel. Phew! I was happy for an explanation. Crying over a camel was just too much!!

I'm really glad you guys are enjoying this! Vee, I'm very sorry about your pet. {{Vee}} This one is a touch more risque: A Night at the Symphony There's something magical about a night at the symphony - a sense of expectation and pure pleasure. Imagine being able to take a place on that stage to perform among the other musicians, a one-in-a-lifetime chance to perform at your very best. If you could join the orchestra, what instrument do you see yourself playing? 1. Violin 2. String Bass 3. Trumpet 4. Flute What your answers mean: Musical instruments are symbolic of members of the opposite sex. The pairing of you and your instrument shows how you perceive yourself in making the music of love. The instrument you chose gives insight into what you think of as your strongest lovemaking technique. 1. Violin The violin demands sensitive fingerwork and a delicate touch with the bow to draw forth music from the taut strings. You see yourself as having the same awareness and skill in locating and playing upon your partners' most sensitive points. There's a sense of adventure in the way your hands can create such beautiful music by running over the same familiar notes. 2. String Bass There's a feeling of power gotten from taking position behind an enormous bass and making it call out in a tremendous moan. In love, your skill rests in the ability to bend your partners to your will, taking complete control, and driving them onward to pleasures they never imagined they could experience. You never ask permission, but that dominating character is what makes you so irresistible. 3. Trumpet There's no getting around it - your mouth is the strongest weapon in your arsenal. Whether it's whispering love talk in your partner's ear or exploring them with your lips, you have all the characteristics of the oral personality. 4. Flute The flute demands incredible patience from those who want to master it. You show that same patience in the way you wear down partners with your persistence, determination, and stamina. Your lovers are often taken off guard when what they thought would be a brief recital quickly develops into a full concerto in six movements.

Wow, Cindori, wish you would have bent my arm and sent me here sooner. I LOVE THIS THREAD!! Bore you with the old, and then the new: 1. White 2. What do you think of this painting? 3. Chicken bones and such. Am I the only one who is on a diet around here?????? 4. Run as fast as I can, but like Jan, I would actually walk. (I like the rain, too. And running could lead to falling, so I'd just get wet and walk.) Camel/Desert 1. I actually formed these words, "C'mon Squeaky (named it), we can make it!" 2. Autumn (here on the Board) Amazing, cuz she did help me tremendously recently. Plus I think of her as a spiritual person. 3. Contented 4. Someone here on the Board I'd rather not name. Symphony Orchestra Violin More, more, Cindori!!! Love it!!

Herc, I'm glad you came in! Here's another one: On Your Birthday . . . Your birthday is the one day a year when you're justified in expecting things to be just a little nicer than usual. Well wishes and congratulations, presents and cards, maybe even a party or a romantic dinner for two. It's your birthday today, and when you check your mailbox you see you've gotten a card from someone you would have never suspected. Who is the sender? You have also received a number of gifts from family and friends. Of that group, who sent you the biggest package? (Give the names of people in your life when answering this scenario.) What your answers mean . . . The responses you gave signify your true feelings about people in your life, feelings you might not even be aware of yourself. The person who unexpectedly sent you a card is actually someone you would like to care more about you or give you more attention. In short, the person you named as the sender is someone you worship from afar. Is it someone you barely know, someone you've been hesitant to approach, or just a friend you haven't heard from in awhile? Maybe it's time you made the first move toward bridging that gap. On the surface, you might associate the biggest package you received with good feelings about the sender. But from a psychological perspective, the person you named as the sender is actually someone whose affections you take for granted. This doesn't necessarily signify a lack of respect, but you definitely feel confident of their feelings for you. Be careful not to get overconfident. What feels like security to you may look like plain selfishness to others.

Oh what timing! My birthday is my favourite day of the year so this question should be interesting. (haven't read it yet so hope I won't be eating my words! lmao!) Cin, I love these and have told others about them ~ we've all been having a great time with them ~ at the accuracy in most cases. I'd never even heard of Kokology before so this is such a treat. (((HP))) You do something most cannot ~ you render me speechless. You are such a gift, I pray you know that.

Forgot to add: ((((Vee)))) I'm so sorry about your pet hun, I know how they touch our lives. Also: I too called the camel "friend." My 'twin' (Sherrie) thought that was funny! lol! Glad to see I'm not alone in this. My answers: 1. Thank-you friend. (so many of us said thank-you, I think that's beautiful.) 2. K. 3. Elation 4. I couldn't come up with anyone for #4 ~ maybe cuz the camel should really have a rest after such a journey.

Autumn, I happen to think you're a RL angel!! Birthday: 1. My sister (not completely estranged, but not close at all) 2. My daughter (she always makes a huge fuss over me; I do feel confident of her love and hope I don't take her for granted.)

Cindori, this is really fun and so interesting! All the answers I chose fit me pretty well, except for one. I couldn't think of an answer at all, so I just made one up. Maybe that's why it didn't fit. 1. Gold 2. Beautiful painting 3. Empty and neatly closed trash bag, equally. 4. Awning Camel: a. encouraged, thanked and felt very grateful and emotionally connected while imagining the camel b. my hubby! c. thankful to camel and God d. couldn't picture anyone, didn't want camel to have to do that again right away, chose my oldest daughter because I didn't know if I could leave it blank, and that probably says something about me too, lol. This is the answer that didn't fit. Birthday card: can't think of anyone for this Birthday present: my hubby again, and I know I've been guilty of taking him for granted at times. I do feel very secure and confident in his affection. Musical instrument: Flute, woohoooo!! Vee, so sorry to hear about your dear pet.
