Your question Which habit is quietly running my life?

The spread

  1. The rim Ship A journey with cargo. Something is being transported, including a mood. What to avoid: Departure used as a solution to everything.
  2. The middle Crown Recognition, authority, and the attention that comes with both. What to avoid: A title held without the work.
  3. The bottom Door A plain yes, with a handle on your side. What to avoid: A door left open out of politeness.

The cup is turned three times on a Friday in autumn, and the first shape settles near the rim, which is where the recent things live.

Crown occupies the centre, and it points at a small object, a key, a document or a borrowed thing that needs returning.

Then the grounds show a shape of doors, which is the cup's most straightforward yes.

What to do

Take the smaller portion and the longer walk.

Timing

This is a two-attempt job; the first one is practice.

Take with you

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