Your question What would the bravest version of me do today?

The spread

  1. The rim Tree Slow growth, deep roots, and a decision with a long horizon. What to avoid: Waiting for a tree to behave like a flower.
  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 Crown Recognition, authority, and the attention that comes with both. What to avoid: A title held without the work.

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

With Ladder at the centre, the reading points at a favour you have been counting as a friendship.

The twist is at the bottom: a shape of two, and a suggestion that the week is decided by someone else's choice.

What to do

Ask for the thing plainly, once.

Timing

Do not decide before the morning, and do not wait past the month.

Take with you

The rest is part of the work.
