Your question Which invitation should I accept?

The spread

  1. What is rooted Raidho The journey, and the correct order of its stages. What to avoid: Movement without a destination.
  2. What is rising Thurisaz A gate and a thorn. The obstacle that is also the way through. What to avoid: Reacting to provocation on reflex.
  3. What must be cut Tiwaz Justice, honour and the willingness to lose fairly. What to avoid: Principles held at the cost of relationships.

Before the first rune, a note: these are letters before they are symbols, and letters are meant to be read.

The heart of the cast is Thurisaz, which describes a negotiation you are treating as a conflict.

The last rune is unreadable from the outside, meaning the answer depends on a fact you have not looked up yet.
