How to read it

The central card is read first and sets the whole spread: this is the person as they are, not as they seem in messages. Card two explains what drew you, and usually says more about you than about them. Card three names their interest, which does not have to match yours; seeing it clearly is what matters. Compare two with three: if they look in different directions, hurry slowly. Card four shows the ceiling of this connection, and card five what to rely on and what not to lose sight of.

Positions

  1. Who they really are

    The essence of this person, as they are away from messages and first impressions.

  2. What drew you

    What hooked you in them and which need of yours it promises to answer.

  3. What they want

    Their interest in this acquaintance: serious, light, self-serving, or not yet formed.

  4. What it grows into

    The ceiling of this connection given how both of you are disposed right now.

  5. What to keep in mind

    The risk or the support in this acquaintance: what not to forget in the first months.
