Your question What is the smallest honest step?

The spread

  1. What is rooted Isa Stillness, ice and the pause that preserves. What to avoid: Waiting as an avoidance strategy.
  2. What is rising Thurisaz A gate and a thorn. The obstacle that is also the way through. What to avoid: Reacting to provocation on reflex.
  3. What must be cut Thurisaz A gate and a thorn. The obstacle that is also the way through. What to avoid: Reacting to provocation on reflex.

The runes are cast onto a plain surface on a Sunday in autumn, and the first one lands face up, which is unusual and rarely flattering.

With Thurisaz at the centre, the reading names a grief you have filed under logistics.

The closing rune warns about a decision made in the first hour of the morning, when you are still generous.
