Your question What does this silence mean?

The spread

  1. The rim Heart An affection spoken out loud this week, or waiting to be. What to avoid: Feeling kept private past its usefulness.
  2. The middle Key Access: a permission, a password, a person who can open something. What to avoid: Holding a key to a door that changed.
  3. The bottom Coin Money in a specific, countable amount, usually smaller than feared. What to avoid: An arithmetic problem left unfaced.

The grounds are read the old way, from rim to bottom, which means the reading gets more honest as it goes.

At the centre, Key: a shape of two halves, which means a decision with a person, not about a person.

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

What to do

Say the compliment out loud instead of thinking it.
