Your question Where does this path actually lead?

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 Door A plain yes, with a handle on your side. What to avoid: A door left open out of politeness.
  3. The bottom Snake A change of skin, and information arriving sideways. What to avoid: A warning read as a threat.

The cup is turned three times on a Saturday in autumn, and the first shape settles near the rim, which is where the recent things live.

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

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

Take the earlier train.
