Castle
Ambition, defense, achievement
Garden
Growth, cultivation, inner peace
Castle
Castles represent grand ambitions, defense mechanisms, and the fortified self. A magnificent castle may symbolize aspirations for greatness, while a castle under siege reflects feeling attacked or defensive. Exploring a castle suggests discovering the many rooms of your psyche. A castle on a hill represents elevated goals and the effort required to reach them. A crumbling castle suggests that defenses are no longer serving you.
Garden
Gardens represent the cultivated aspects of your psyche — the parts you've consciously nurtured and grown. A beautiful garden suggests inner peace, creativity, and personal growth. A neglected garden may indicate aspects of yourself you've been ignoring. Planting seeds represents new intentions, while harvesting represents reaping the rewards of your efforts.
