Your question Which version of the story is true?

The spread

  1. The rim Mountain A large obstacle with a known route. Slow, survivable, worthwhile. What to avoid: Treating a hill as a mountain.
  2. The middle Bird News arriving in a small, quick form. A message, not a letter. What to avoid: Gossip mistaken for information.
  3. The bottom Ring A promise, a repetition, or an arrangement becoming formal. What to avoid: Commitment made from momentum.

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

What to do

Let the answer be obvious and unimpressive.

Timing

Give it three weeks before judging the result.
