Some of the participants have asked me how from a few clues, one can build an edifice of interpretations. Well, all great symphonies start with one single note. A journey of thousand miles not only starts with a small step, but is also made of small steps. So it is with our actions and choices. These are based on meanings we have given to things from our experience. Some meanings are culturally determined. For instance, the colours acquire a particular meaning when we participate in social and cultural events that are based on the use of those colours.
Our bedroom is our very private space that holds the promise of intimacy. The colours we choose there reflect our meanings of intimacy and associated feelings and expectations. It is possible to look at the range of meanings and based on my experience, I pick up those that suggest themselves easily to me. This is the basic building block of my reading of the answers. It is not exactly an interpretation, because what I do is highly subjective reading. If it helps you in starting on a journey of reflection that leads to a better direction of your life, I think my purpose is served.
