<Note>
.......1) Those who haven't played but want to - you can skip the discussion and post your response, then read the explanation at your leisure.
.......2) Those who have played - the pages might get long, so you can press "Ctrl+F" and type your username to get to my responses quicker. And/or you can look up the explanation itself and post your self-analysis.

LET'S PLAY!
**There are no right answers, no wrong answers.**
Just you & your imagination.

Things can be whatever you want them to be. For instance, if I ask you to picture a pen - it could be a Bic, a Mont Blanc, a broken fountain pen, a quill, a pencil, a box full of pens.. you get the picture.

I will offer interpretations at the end, but it's open to interp and you're invited to chime in with your versions.

Also, please mention your "Big 3" - Sun/Moon/Asc. And maybe throw in Merc/Venus/Mars if you'd like. I'd love to tie interps with astrological placments.

Ready?
Oh, and the only rule is -- don't think. Write down the first thing that comes to your mind, exactly how you pictured it.

Now take a deep breath, and relax.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Imagine you're in a desert. Nothing but sand as far as the eye can see. In front of you, there is a cube.
Q1: Describe the cube. What does it look like? How large is it? What is it made of? Where exactly is it?

You squint at your cube, and the heat haze clears enough for you to see that there is also a ladder.
Q2: What's the ladder like? How is positioned, in relation to the cube?

Now imagine in this scene there's a horse. Yeah, a horse. Anything can happen, see.
Q3: What kind of horse do you see? What is it doing? Where, if anywhere, is it going?

The haze shifts a little more, revealing flowers before you.
Q4: How many flowers are there? What kind? Where, in relation to everything else, are they?

Lastly, in this desert, there's also..a storm.
Q5: What type of storm is it? Is it near, or far? Where's it headed? Does it affect anything in the scene?

Hope ya'll have fun!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

P.S. My friends & I used to construct games like this back in school, but some time ago I stumbled across this version and it's one of my favourites of this kind.

I did this a year or two ago, online. I'll try to join in when I'm more awake. I think my results were pretty accurate at the time.

Ooooooohhhhhhhhhhh I love games.

*excited*

Cap sun/asc/venus, aries moon, sag merc, taurus mars

Imagine you're in a desert. Nothing but sand as far as the eye can see. In front of you, there is a cube.

Q1: Describe the cube. What does it look like? How large is it? What is it made of? Where exactly is it?

I hold the cube in my hands. It is probably as big as my fist, made of clear glass. Feels solid. Sea-foam - greenish blue in colour. There's a bit of water in it. Very pretty.

You squint at your cube, and the heat haze clears enough for you to see that there is also a ladder.

Q2: What's the ladder like? How is positioned, in relation to the cube?

Pretty close. I stand at the foot of the ladder. It's made of dark brown wood, big and solid. It stretches far into the sky and I can't see the other end.

Now imagine in this scene there's a horse. Yeah, a horse. Anything can happen, see.

Q3: What kind of horse do you see? What is it doing? Where, if anywhere, is it going?

Black horse, standing near the horizon, looking over to me as though it's waiting for me.

The haze shifts a little more, revealing flowers before you.

Q4: How many flowers are there? What kind? Where, in relation to everything else, are they?

I'm standing in a flower field. There are all kinds of flowers. Bright beautiful colours. They also grow on the ladder.

Lastly, in this desert, there's also..a storm.

Q5: What type of storm is it? Is it near, or far? Where's it headed? Does it affect anything in the scene?

Rain storm. It's far and seems to be heading my way. It's going to water the flowers seeds and wet the ladder.

I go to the horse. We'll try to find shelter. If we can't find any shelter then we'll settle down n enjoy the rain when the storm comes lol. I bring the cube with me.

Q1.

I see a transparent cube, almost made of glass. Its floating just above the horizon in the distance. But I can never reach it...its just always in the distance.

Q2.

A simple wooded ladder located just underneath the cube extending to the ground.

Q3.

I see a black stallion, the horse is tied down. Looks at me
and "winks". Its almost saying get on me and go!!!.

Q4.
I see two boxed flowerpots of red roses, there are approx 2 roses in each box.
They are located left and right of the ladder.

Q5.

I see an incoming sandstorm. Its approaching in my direction..and I'm caught in the open.

I drop to the ground, zip up and take cover as it passes over me.

These tests make me uneasy because I don't know what I'm revealing about myself.

Oh wellll

1. Transparent cube about fifteen feet in front on me, seems to be my height, shimmers different colors in the sunshine. Made of thin but sturdy, iridescent plastic. An alien must've put it there.

2. Ladder extends out from the cube, dark heavy wood...defies the laws of physics as it leans against an edge. Can't see the top, I think the top is invisible.

3. Horse on top of a dune running towards me and changing colors as it runs. Or maybe I just can't see because of the heat waves rising off the sand.

4. Wherever I set my gaze there are flowers responding to my preferences. I look down here, periwinkles. Over there, geraniums. Straight ahead at a little above eye level, a sunflower. To my waist there are wildflowers whenever I think of them.

5. Beautiful heavy purple clouds crackling with lightning in the distance, sending wind and drizzle. I don't know what happens next, I just watch and listen.

Imagine you're in a desert. Nothing but sand as far as the eye can see. In front of you, there is a cube.
Q1: Describe the cube. What does it look like? How large is it? What is it made of? Where exactly is it?
It's an enormously giant Rubik's cube with the colors shuffled around. It's made of plastic just like a Rubik's cube is made of lol and it's in front of me in the distance. It's just in the middle of the desert.

You squint at your cube, and the heat haze clears enough for you to see that there is also a ladder.
Q2: What's the ladder like? How is positioned, in relation to the cube?
It's a wooden ladder and it's positioned against the rubix cube on the right.

Now imagine in this scene there's a horse. Yeah, a horse. Anything can happen, see.
Q3: What kind of horse do you see? What is it doing? Where, if anywhere, is it going?
I see a beautiful white horse with a flowing mane and it's galloping towards me.

The haze shifts a little more, revealing flowers before you.
Q4: How many flowers are there? What kind? Where, in relation to everything else, are they?
There's 6 white lilies scattered all over the ground, like they were a bouquet of lilies but it's scattered as if someone threw them in the air. So the stems are still intact is what I'm trying to describe lol

Lastly, in this desert, there's also..a storm.
Q5: What type of storm is it? Is it near, or far? Where's it headed? Does it affect anything in the scene?
There's a rainstorm far off in the distance and it's headed away from me. It doesn't affect anything in the scene.


Whew! Kinda interested to see what this says about me because it's so random and doesn't make sense lol but at the same time, I don't want to know

Pisces Sun, Leo Asc, Virgo Moon.

1. The cube is made of sand or stone, like the pyramids. It is the size of a medium sized packing box, or slightly bigger. It sits upon a hill. The hill is also sand, but solid and more of a large mound, like burial mounds that you find in the UK, but smaller and with nothing bordering it. I don't think it's a burial mound, but it resembles one. It's about 10-15 feet away from me, and I'm standing in front of it.

2. The ladder is red (painted bright red, made of wood), and leads up to the cube up the middle, possibly to a doorway into the cube. The ladder is not large, looks like an older ladder with grayish wood, and the cherry red paint is peeling just slightly in some places. It's at an angle to the cube, so that one might climb up it to get into the possible doorway (I don't see the doorway, but suspect one is there, and that's where the ladder leads).

3. The horse is a brown and white appalachia, and is facing towards the sea, which is to my left. He is standing in front of me and to my left, not directly in front of the mound, but somewhat in between myself and the mound. He doesn't seem to be going anywhere, just standing with the wind blowing his mane, looking towards the ocean.

4. There are many flowers, small-ish, like miniature petunia size, mostly purple, yellow, and a light fuchsia. They are in front of the hill that the cube sits on. I would say that the flowers ARE small petunias, or small wildflowers, or a mixture of both, very bright and cheerful colors. They are all in front of the mound, gathered around it, but not bordering the entire mound.

5. The storm is far off in the distance, and does not affect much in the scene. Mostly just light greyish clouds, far out behind the hill that the cube sits on. Whatever storm is there, it's not readily apparent, and does not appear harmful. There could be darker clouds beyond the light grey ones, but I'm not concerning myself with them. They are out past the mound, somewhat over the sea and desert. They will probably not come my direction, so I'm deliberately choosing not to pay much mind. The wind is light and warm, a warm slightly humid breeze. Yes, even in the desert.

Don't you dare quote!

I wan to try this!

Q1: I see a small cube mostly blue and green, it looks like a rubiks cube basically.

Q2: Next to the cube but the ladder is normal size pointing up

Q3: White horse, big one, really beautiful, standing there as in its waiting for someone to ride it.

Q4: Yellow flowers, like mexican marigold, I can see a few around 5, but can't see anything else.

Q5: weirdly enough in a desert I can only think in like a hurricane type of storm, like when you look at them from above kinda far but the clouds moving so fast.

Pisces Sun, Gemini Moon, Scorpio Ascendant, Pisces Mercury, Pisces Venus, Aquarius Mars

Q 1 : I see a cream-colored cube infront of me, it is opaque. It is quite big, its height is around 7 feet maybe. The sun rays falling on it is making it look even more brighter. I can't touch it yet. It might be around 20 meters ahead of me. A little bit of its lower part seems to be buried in the sand. Beyond the cube I can seen desert, more desert and the blue sky. A mild wind is blowing, covering the top of the cube with sand at times and blowing them away again. The sun is bright, high up in the sky, it is probably noon.

Q 2 : Yeah I can see the ladder. I can only see the top part of it. It is situated right behind the cube. It seems to be leaning on the cube, on 70-80 degree angle maybe. It is brown in color, slightly black at some parts. I can only view few top steps of it as the rest of it is completely blocked by the cube.

Q 3 : I can see the horse now, I can see its brown head, with a white spot in its forehead. I can see its front legs, which are black in color and there are white spots on its knees too. It too is right behind the cube. It is raising one of its legs and is looking at me. It is coming out from behind the cube, seems to be coming towards me. I can see almost all of its upper body now. Its light brown mane is blowing beautifully in the wind.

Q 4 : I can see the flowers, now. It is on top of the cube. It is light yellow in color. It seems to be planted on small brown pot. I can see its light green stems, I cant see any leaves from here. I can see around 3-4 flowers, but there might be more.

Q 5 : Storm! bloody hell! I love storms! A sand storm is heading my way and I'm all excited, goosebumps! I love the wheeee~~ sound it is making, engulfing everything in its path. I look at it in pure awe. I can feel the fear and adrenaline rush. It is still far away from me, but it will reach here soon, bring it on! I am raising both of my hands and jumping around with excitement. The pace of the wind is increasing a lot now, I can feel my clothes and hair being blown at high speed, it might blow me away, let's see what happens.

Ok I play

Q1 : A cube of average size (size house), 4 full color sand surfaces whose material similar to that used for the Egyptian pyramids. There is a door not visible from a distance and the sky side face can ouvir. It is close to the sand dunes.

Q2 : The scale is in wood, ten bars, it is attached to the north face of the cube.

Q3 : The horse is an Arab horse chestnut, black color. he waits in front of the cube. He made back and forth between the cube and the nearest town.

Q4 : The flowers grow in a patio located south side of the cube. There are of all colors and all kinds (exotic, small annuals, roses and camellias) and of all colors.

Q5 : It's a sandstorm. It is not very far, but not disturbing. If it passes near the house the horse can spot under the patio, the cube is sufficiently solid and flowers protected under the patio. At worst, it will remain the traces of the storm passing on the floor of the patio. Time will ballayer of the remaining sand.

The cube is made of clay. Ladder is made of old wood and positioned on a horizontal angle making it easy to climb it. Horse is brown without any white markings. Coat is shiny. Mane and tail are black. It's standing by cube; patiently waiting. Flowers are purple tulips and they are on top of cube.

As I climb the ladder and mount the horse, I pick up tulips and smell them. With a smile I give the horse orders to gallop away from the black and blue storm building strength at the horizon.

I did this before, but forgot what it all meant, so doing it again.


magine you're in a desert. Nothing but sand as far as the eye can see. In front of you, there is a cube.
Q1: Describe the cube. What does it look like? How large is it? What is it made of? Where exactly is it?

the cube is rather large, not skyscraper large, but larger than a person. Maybe 5 metres in height?
It`s made of a material that is transparent or semitransparent, I suppose it`s glass, or actually more crystalllike. It has different changing kind of colours, mostly in the purple/pink/blue/silver/white way.

Well it`s in the desert, and pretty much in the centre.

"Q2: What's the ladder like? How is positioned, in relation to the cube?"
It`s a simple ladder, rather large and wide, too, but seems to be made not of metal, but of wood, black wood?
It leans against the cube, so I can climb on top of the cube by using the ladder.


"Q3: What kind of horse do you see? What is it doing? Where, if anywhere, is it going?"
A tall black stallion (interestingly sometimes seems brown though, too). It`s standing in a bit of a distance, but not too far away, ears moving and looking curiously over at me, then it neighs and approaches me, though seems exhibiting a bit of nervous energy, quite temperemental and curious horse btw.
When it stops a few steps before me, I take the last steps towards it and pat its neck, and the horse neighs again. I think it likes it. lol


"Q4: How many flowers are there? What kind? Where, in relation to everything else, are they?"
Ah yes, I see them. they are right beside me as I stand in between the cube and the horse. Wildflowers, very colourful, red, blue, purple, pink, white. I see the horse looking over at the flowers, and when it stubs my shoulder, I bend down and pluch a few flowers, offering to them. He eats them, and then nudges my shoulder with his head. He`s quite a playful horse. lol

"Q5: What type of storm is it? Is it near, or far? Where's it headed? Does it affect anything in the scene?"


Hmm, yes you`re right there is a storm. A mix of sandstorm and darkish hurricane, but it`s moving away and hardly to see anymore. Actually the horse had been nearer to it before it came over to me. And the storm was moving the opposite direction.

So, what you would reveal in the most intimate circumstances is the same as what you'd reveal in the most public circumstances?

My 8H moon finds this foreign and intriguing.

Hi folks! Thanks for responding.. Very interesting answers.

@Violets,
Oh no.. I was just gonna say I'll wait to post the interpretations until people are done..
But I guess now is as good a time as any. Will just include a disclaimer.

Muahahahaa. Astrology says you must accept these things as par for the course when the transiting Sun is (was) illuminating an 8th house Scorp Merc/Mars.

Jk.
It's not all that revealing, really. Just a little. An ice breaker and a fun way to get the feel of a person, somewhat. In person, it's even more interesting - 'coz you get to see *how* they respond, along with *what* they respond.
Thanks for playing along.

Virgo Ascendant (now at least)
Aquarius Sun in 5th
Gemini Moon in 10th

The cube is a 4󫶘 blocked cube with the sides resembling that of the windows of a large, tall building in the city. Inside the cube sits a regular, old silver ladder that looks like one you would use to climb to the rooftop of a house, all surrounded in a blue sky with fast moving clouds.

The horse is a white horse with patches of gray, facing the right and galloping across an orange desert land as it soon runs into a large field of buttercups.

Then, the desert has a dark blue sky with water flowing about in a typhoon as lightning shoots down from the sky and causes chaos.

Pretty radical descriptions if you ask me. It's probably why my dreams are horrendously strange
