Your question What would make this week lighter?

The spread

  1. The rim Bridge A crossing, and a decision about which bank you end on. What to avoid: Standing in the middle indefinitely.
  2. The middle Snake A change of skin, and information arriving sideways. What to avoid: A warning read as a threat.
  3. The bottom Anchor Stability chosen deliberately. A place to stop drifting. What to avoid: An anchor that has become a weight.

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

Snake holds the middle and points at a relationship running on shared history rather than current pleasure.

The final shape is a circle, and circles in the grounds mean a conversation returning to its starting point until someone changes a line.
