Your question What is the kindest accurate thing to say?

The spread

  1. The rim Anchor Stability chosen deliberately. A place to stop drifting. What to avoid: An anchor that has become a weight.
  2. The middle Anchor Stability chosen deliberately. A place to stop drifting. What to avoid: An anchor that has become a weight.
  3. The bottom Eye Being seen, or finally seeing. Clarity with a witness. What to avoid: Watching instead of participating.

This reading has no apparatus. Only a cup, a light, and the willingness to see shapes rather than stains.

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

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

What to do

Walk for twenty minutes without headphones.

Take with you

Attention is the most expensive thing you own; spend it well.
