Castle
Ambition, defense, achievement
Snow
Purity, stillness, emotional coldness
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.
Snow
Snow represents purity, stillness, and the covering or concealment of what lies beneath. Fresh snow suggests new beginnings and a clean slate. Melting snow indicates the thawing of emotions or the revelation of hidden truths. Being trapped in snow reflects emotional numbness or isolation. Snowfall can be peaceful (gentle transformation) or threatening (blizzard, burial).
