Creatures In My Wonderland

If you say so.

 

OP here, If you think about it even though I created them intentionally I wouldnt have thought of them in the first place if I didnt have the psychological negativity like the above states, if I was a happy camper like others I wouldve thought of something like butterflies or bunnies.

I decided to keep the rakes just to see how it things will turn out, Im curious

Kiahdaj, what Shui is purpoting is completely valid psychology, both intuitively and academically. One related example is a Rorschach, which requires so-called conscious interpretation, but ultimately reveals a veritable wealth of unconscious symbols, emotions, cognitive states, and so forth.

 

Suffice it to say that I agree with Shui -- your imagination can, snd does, impact other facets of your life. The paracosm you create, and the inhabitants with which you choose to populate it, can either represent a current state of mind or conjure a new one. It's a therapeutic exercise that helps you interface with your deeper psyche. I'd advise approaching it as such. Usually, though, it's a trial-and-error learning process only you can judge.

While that which you consciously conjure could represent some such inner qualm, it really is a bit of a stretch to automatically assume that that is the case here.

I also want to mention that I didn't say this kind of interpretation could not happen. I am aware of the purpose of Rorschach tests. My point was that this "revelation" does not change anything. Even if it did point to inner demons, all that means is that they're there. That doesn't mean OP should get rid of them, or that keeping them there would prevent the problem from being cured.
