Your question What do I need to hear today?

The spread

  1. The rim Key Access: a permission, a password, a person who can open something. What to avoid: Holding a key to a door that changed.
  2. The middle Ladder Rungs, order, and a rise that requires one step at a time. What to avoid: Skipping a step and rebuilding it later.
  3. The bottom Bridge A crossing, and a decision about which bank you end on. What to avoid: Standing in the middle indefinitely.

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

Ladder sits in the middle and names the thing you keep re-reading: a message, a contract, a message about a contract.

The bottom of the cup warns about a plan that depends on perfect timing and forgiving traffic.

What to do

Take the smaller portion and the longer walk.

Timing

The timing improves when the temperature changes.

Take with you

Doing it badly still counts as doing it.
