Your question Is this a beginning or an ending in disguise?

The spread

  1. The rim Coin Money in a specific, countable amount, usually smaller than feared. What to avoid: An arithmetic problem left unfaced.
  2. The middle Snake A change of skin, and information arriving sideways. What to avoid: A warning read as a threat.
  3. The bottom Tree Slow growth, deep roots, and a decision with a long horizon. What to avoid: Waiting for a tree to behave like a flower.

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

With Snake at the centre, the reading points at a favour you have been counting as a friendship.

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

What to do

Take the earlier train.

Timing

Soon, but not today.

Take with you

Slow is a strategy, not a failure.
