The spread

  1. What you carry Strength Gentleness applied to something wild, including your own temper. What to avoid: Endurance mistaken for patience.

  3. Where the road bends The Lovers A choice made with another person, and therefore a choice about yourself. What to avoid: Choosing to be liked rather than to be known.
