Your question What am I pretending not to know?

The spread

The rim Bird News arriving in a small, quick form. A message, not a letter. What to avoid: Gossip mistaken for information.
The middle Bird News arriving in a small, quick form. A message, not a letter. What to avoid: Gossip mistaken for information.
The bottom Heart An affection spoken out loud this week, or waiting to be. What to avoid: Feeling kept private past its usefulness.

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

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

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

Let the answer be obvious and unimpressive.

The first frost changes the arithmetic.

The right people will not need the long version.
