Your question Which door is actually open?

The spread

  1. The rim Bridge A crossing, and a decision about which bank you end on. What to avoid: Standing in the middle indefinitely.
  2. The middle Snake A change of skin, and information arriving sideways. What to avoid: A warning read as a threat.
  3. The bottom Tree Slow growth, deep roots, and a decision with a long horizon. What to avoid: Waiting for a tree to behave like a flower.

Under the sky over Washington, D.C., the first shape is a curve, and curves mean a change of direction rather than an arrival.

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

The final shape is a line, and lines mean travel, usually the short kind that changes a mood.
