Your question What do I need to hear today?

The spread

  1. The rim Ladder Rungs, order, and a rise that requires one step at a time. What to avoid: Skipping a step and rebuilding it later.
  2. The middle Bridge A crossing, and a decision about which bank you end on. What to avoid: Standing in the middle indefinitely.
  3. The bottom Ladder Rungs, order, and a rise that requires one step at a time. What to avoid: Skipping a step and rebuilding it later.

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

The reading's core is Bridge, naming the thing that gets better the moment it is written down.

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

Make the list shorter, not the day longer.
