Your question What should I protect this month?

The spread

  1. The rim Ring A promise, a repetition, or an arrangement becoming formal. What to avoid: Commitment made from momentum.
  2. The middle Tree Slow growth, deep roots, and a decision with a long horizon. What to avoid: Waiting for a tree to behave like a flower.
  3. The bottom Ladder Rungs, order, and a rise that requires one step at a time. What to avoid: Skipping a step and rebuilding it later.

This reading has no apparatus. Only a cup, a light, and the willingness to see shapes rather than stains.

The middle of the cup holds Tree. It sits exactly where your attention sits, and it describes something being carried rather than chosen.

Then the bottom of the cup contradicts the rim, which is the grounds' way of saying the first worry was not the real one.

What to do

Say no to one thing this week and mean it.
