[MENTION=5639]JocktheMotie[/MENTION] i would like to see you do this test.

I'm predicting that your horse would be big strong masculine and male because you are a bodybuilder.

I'm not a bodybuilder and doesn't the horse describe my ideal mate?

The cube is black, small, floating in the center of the desert. I can reach out and observe it floating in my hands. It is about the size of a rubik's cube. I see the cube three dimensionally, from an isometric vantage point. It is made of a black, reflectionless material, not unlike the monoliths from Space Odyssey.

The ladder is tall, and far away from the cube. I have to turn around to see the ladder, and there are many rungs. The ladder is steel, grey.

The horse is a black stallion, wild, close to the cube. It even tried to eat the cube. It is not tethered, just grazes, always close.

The storm is large and violent but far away, and not moving. It looms.

Room-I imagined a small empty warehouse, and I'm from small town Maine
Cube-I imagined your average size box pretty much, so on the smaller side. I put it in the corner, and yes, I am a shy person! My cube wasn't floating and was solid color. Yeah, I'm pretty chill and don't show a ton of feelings.
Ladder: It was silver, leaning against my cube and was fairly short. My goals do mean a lot to me, but since it's short I don't have a ton.
Horse: The horse was on top of my cube :newwink: . I can be pretty clingy. He was free and had a reddish brown body and a black mane.
Flowers: Well, I imagined a boquet farther from the cube than the rest of the objects. But I also imagined a yellow boquet with a bunch of tiny flowers, and yeah, I don't want 20 kids.
Storm: I imagined a storm inside the warehouse with purple skies with lightning, rain, and cold winds. Eh, I have been pretty stressed lately.

Small room

Small cube, perfectly center, floating in symmetry to the walls. I am lower than the cube, staring directly at the corner of the cube.

The cube is opaque, very pure white. It reminds me of some sci-fi films.

Ladder is on the wall of the room. Away from the cube. The ladder is embedded into the wall. Normal, functional. It seems pointless.

A horse? Near the cube, near a different wall from the ladder. Its roaming. It has reigns but no saddle. Its a chocolate red and white color. Reminds me of my dog. Im not fond of horses.

A storm exists outside, lightning and rain. It seems distant and beautiful.

PS: I just remembered I did this test before a LONG time ago. My answer was VERY different this time. I originally imagined a giant rusty metal cube in no room, with the ladder embedded into the cube. Inside of a sandstorm. I think its the result of different prompts.

1) My room is large. Close to medium size. Maybe the size of the living room of a house.
2)My cube is semi opaque and is cyan blue. It rests on the floor, to the left side of the room. It is medium sized (not as tall as an adult- adults can look over it). It has rounded corners.
3)The ladder is to the opposite side of my cube (to the farthest right corner). It is beautifully made, with a shiny red stain, and it makes me happy. It leads to a room built inside the walls like a den and it contains a library.
4) I didn't imagine flowers, but I did imagine a tree. It is at the opposite side of my cube, on the right side of the wall, closer to the viewer).
5) The horse is a painting above my cube (but a little to the back of it). It is a beautiful free horse, galloping at top speed, and it is purple.
6) The storm is dark and heavy and all encompassing.There's a certain beauty to it, as it contains within its many shades of grey some violet and blues as well. Beautiful but overbearing and dreadful. But it is outside, and I am safe and happy in my room.
