Your question Why do I keep hesitating?

The spread

  1. The rim Door A plain yes, with a handle on your side. What to avoid: A door left open out of politeness.
  2. The middle Tree Slow growth, deep roots, and a decision with a long horizon. What to avoid: Waiting for a tree to behave like a flower.
  3. The bottom Mountain A large obstacle with a known route. Slow, survivable, worthwhile. What to avoid: Treating a hill as a mountain.

The grounds are read the old way, from rim to bottom, which means the reading gets more honest as it goes.

Tree in the middle is a shape of enclosure: a room, a role, or an arrangement you have outgrown quietly.

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

Take the earlier train.

Timing

The evening is more honest than the afternoon.
