Your question Which door is actually open?

The spread

  1. The rim Ship A journey with cargo. Something is being transported, including a mood. What to avoid: Departure used as a solution to everything.
  2. The middle Snake A change of skin, and information arriving sideways. What to avoid: A warning read as a threat.
  3. The bottom Coin Money in a specific, countable amount, usually smaller than feared. What to avoid: An arithmetic problem left unfaced.

The cup is read slowly because the grounds are always read slowly; hurry turns every shape into a bird.

Snake in the middle is a shape of enclosure: a room, a role, or an arrangement you have outgrown quietly.

The last shape is a small cross, which is the grounds' gentlest caution: not a disaster, a delay.

What to do

Take the earlier train.

Timing

Ask again after the full moon.

Take with you

You can be calm and still be moving.
