Your question What is the one thing that would change everything?

The spread

  1. The rim Mountain A large obstacle with a known route. Slow, survivable, worthwhile. What to avoid: Treating a hill as a mountain.
  2. The middle Bridge A crossing, and a decision about which bank you end on. What to avoid: Standing in the middle indefinitely.
  3. The bottom Key Access: a permission, a password, a person who can open something. What to avoid: Holding a key to a door that changed.

The first shape sits high, which means the week's tension is in the part of life you talk about most.

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

The last shape is a small cross, which is the grounds' gentlest caution: not a disaster, a delay.
