Your question How do I stop carrying this?

The spread

  1. The rim Key Access: a permission, a password, a person who can open something. What to avoid: Holding a key to a door that changed.
  2. The middle Tree Slow growth, deep roots, and a decision with a long horizon. What to avoid: Waiting for a tree to behave like a flower.
  3. The bottom Heart An affection spoken out loud this week, or waiting to be. What to avoid: Feeling kept private past its usefulness.

The cup is turned three times on a Sunday in autumn, and the first shape settles near the rim, which is where the recent things live.

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

Then the grounds show a shape of doors, which is the cup's most straightforward yes.

What to do

Set the boundary before you need it.

Timing

The decision belongs to next week; the preparation belongs to this one.

Take with you

You can be calm and still be moving.
