Your question How much of this is mine to fix?

The spread

  1. The rim Door A plain yes, with a handle on your side. What to avoid: A door left open out of politeness.
  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 Heart An affection spoken out loud this week, or waiting to be. What to avoid: Feeling kept private past its usefulness.

The first shape is near the rim, meaning it is fresh: this is about the last few days, not the last few years.

The centre shape is Tree, which is a shape of movement, and it says the waiting is nearly finished.

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

What to do

Take the earlier train.

Timing

The month turns and takes the difficulty with it.

Take with you

The rest is part of the work.
