Your question What would I do if nobody were watching?

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 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 Coin Money in a specific, countable amount, usually smaller than feared. What to avoid: An arithmetic problem left unfaced.

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

The heart of the cup is Tree, describing a habit that costs you about an hour a day and is entirely fixable.

The last shape is faint, which means the answer is already there and simply not yet legible.
