Your question What am I pretending not to know?

The spread

  1. The rim Crown Recognition, authority, and the attention that comes with both. What to avoid: A title held without the work.
  2. The middle Ship A journey with cargo. Something is being transported, including a mood. What to avoid: Departure used as a solution to everything.
  3. The bottom Crown Recognition, authority, and the attention that comes with both. What to avoid: A title held without the work.

With First Quarter in the sky and Clear sky in the window, the reading starts at the edge, where wishes and worries always sit.

Ship holds the middle and points at a relationship running on shared history rather than current pleasure.

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

Ask for the thing plainly, once.

Timing

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

Take with you

Small and consistent beats impressive and brief.
