Living without your family can suggest that you have distanced yourself from your basic nature. Those psychological aspects of yourself that make you who you are seem missing and thus perhaps unused. You are using ideas that are very worldly in nature which you see as working in your favour. (4 friends)
Your self image appears to have taken the form of a lion cub with wings. This can suggest that you see yourself as having the right to judge, complain or criticize. (a lion is king of the jungle) The wings could imply also having a nature that is spiritually courageous. {There are many references to a lion with wings if you care to Google them.] The aspects of the Self all appear to be winged animals (pigeons, Pegasus) and all convey spiritual connotations. The problem here seems to be that your self image is a very emotionally conceived one. (You and your friends are all in animal form) As an animal – no matter how “spiritual” the form – you have demeaned your own rational nature. (the human form) As a lion cub with wings you have also associated yourself with myth more than with reality. The cub form implies that this aspect of your feelings could be innocent but should not be intensely felt.
Living at the top of a hill would imply having solved a problem. But, it also suggests that you are seeing a situation as more of a problem than it really is. (“making a mountain out of a molehill” – note your words, not big enough to be a mountain) The camp implies a temporary lodging, one not as confining as when under the protection of parents. The grassy camp indicates the grounds of reasoning for being here are justified by worldly thinking, yet these grounds are not “on the level” – not honest or legitimate – and could leave you living “depressed” (in a canyon-like depression)
Bridges appear to have been built reflecting the idea of bridging a gap, joining two sides, and built of hard truths which you can look up to with respect yet in your mind these possible paths of making connections would not really get you anywhere.(stone bridges above us leading to no where) The horse would refer to an another emotional aspect of yourself which looms very large and important – one relating to feelings of self respect and self esteem. Here this feeling does not appear to function naturally. (crazed horse) Drawing a carriage can imply that where self respect is involved, “putting the horse before the cart”, i.e. putting first things first, may be important but perhaps as would be done in older times. The horse and carriage can also refer to “getting hitched – married. The obstacles you put before the feeling of self respect/self esteem seem laughable to this aspect of your nature. There is something to be said for this feeling but it does not get through to you (He said something, but I can never make out what) although it is trying very hard to get your attention. (he was practically yelling at me)
The nest can refer to the idea of setting up a home. As the nest is a home for birds, it could imply that your seemingly highly intelligent (way up) idea regarding setting up a home is actually “for the birds” – a bit ridiculous. The spiritual aspects of yourself are never brought into or made part of this idea. (my mind never lets me bring my friends into the nest) Their place or function perhaps is to make you feel on edge or nervous about setting up a home. (they just sit on the edge of the nest) Emotionally there may some “ties” to the nest. Note that being tied to the nest can suggest not being able to fly away from it. This might refer to not being able to leave the parent’s home. The vines refer to a divine idea, one you renounce (wave it) and drop or forgo. When having a disagreement with the more spiritual aspect of self respect (argue with Pegasus) you experience a failing in relation to the idea of setting up a home (fall through the nest) The idea of “nesting” falls through – cannot be carried out. Note how Pegasus has no ties or attachments to the nesting idea.
