Your question Which invitation should I accept?

The spread

  1. The rim Eye Being seen, or finally seeing. Clarity with a witness. What to avoid: Watching instead of participating.
  2. The middle Bridge A crossing, and a decision about which bank you end on. What to avoid: Standing in the middle indefinitely.
  3. The bottom Key Access: a permission, a password, a person who can open something. What to avoid: Holding a key to a door that changed.

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

With Bridge at the centre, the reading points at a favour you have been counting as a friendship.

The final shape is a circle, and circles in the grounds mean a conversation returning to its starting point until someone changes a line.

What to do

Take the smaller portion and the longer walk.

Timing

Do not decide before the morning, and do not wait past the month.

Take with you

The right people will not need the long version.
