Your question Is this the right moment to say yes?

The spread

  1. The rim Coin Money in a specific, countable amount, usually smaller than feared. What to avoid: An arithmetic problem left unfaced.
  2. The middle Eye Being seen, or finally seeing. Clarity with a witness. What to avoid: Watching instead of participating.
  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.

With First Quarter in the sky and Overcast in the window, the reading starts at the edge, where wishes and worries always sit.

At the centre, Eye, which describes a plan that is solid in outline and empty in detail.

Then the bottom of the cup contradicts the rim, which is the grounds' way of saying the first worry was not the real one.

What to do

Ask what this costs you monthly, in hours.

Timing

The first frost changes the arithmetic.

Take with you

The hard part is not a personality flaw.
