Your question What have I outgrown and not admitted?

The spread

  1. The rim Bird News arriving in a small, quick form. A message, not a letter. What to avoid: Gossip mistaken for information.
  2. The middle Ladder Rungs, order, and a rise that requires one step at a time. What to avoid: Skipping a step and rebuilding it later.
  3. The bottom Ring A promise, a repetition, or an arrangement becoming formal. What to avoid: Commitment made from momentum.

The grounds are read the old way, from rim to bottom, which means the reading gets more honest as it goes.

The heart of the cup is Ladder, describing a habit that costs you about an hour a day and is entirely fixable.

The last shape is faint, which means the answer is already there and simply not yet legible.

What to do

Write it down before you decide.

Timing

The evening is more honest than the afternoon.

Take with you

The hard part is not a personality flaw.
