I've got a "sign of the snake" run. I've lost it, and now I'm stuck with it. I've tried to start a new run and lose it many times, it's always under that sign, and thus unplayable. How do I make it go away?

It's locked on my screen. Can someone please explain to me like I'm an idiot how to unlock it?

Can't play the game, it keeps crashing when I start it with a message "Unity 2019.2.9f1_ebce4d76e6e8" How to fix?

Three arrow cats, followed by three hoplite dogs, followed by four baby minotaurs. I have two thunder cards and an axe. If I kill the dogs with the thunder I get killed by the arrow cats, if I kill the cats I get killed by the dogs, how am I meant to survive this and kill everything? https://imgur.com/a/Q6ILGbx...

So I got myself into this puzzle, and I can't find a solution. I've been sitting over this for half an hour and when I looked it up, well, even the wiki doesn't have a solution lol (https://irisandthegiant.fandom.com/wiki/Path_of_the_Mind for your convenience, the last puzzle on the list there). I was just wondering if it even has a solution... I even tried stealing Amphorae and stuff like that, I just don't seem to get it. If someone has a solution, I would be glad if you posted it here, I already gave up...
