Your question What is the smallest honest step?

The spread

  1. The rim Coin Money in a specific, countable amount, usually smaller than feared. What to avoid: An arithmetic problem left unfaced.
  2. The middle Mountain A large obstacle with a known route. Slow, survivable, worthwhile. What to avoid: Treating a hill as a mountain.
  3. The bottom Bridge A crossing, and a decision about which bank you end on. What to avoid: Standing in the middle indefinitely.

The reading opens on the rim, where the questions you asked out loud have left their mark.

Mountain occupies the centre, and it points at a small object, a key, a document or a borrowed thing that needs returning.

The twist is at the bottom: a shape of two, and a suggestion that the week is decided by someone else's choice.
