How to read it
Do not read straight through; read by tiers. The top tier is the sky: ideal, hope, illusion, fear and the truth of your feeling; compare three with five, since the gap between them sets the tone for everything. The second tier gives the two of you, three cards each: feeling, action, hidden part; match six with nine, seven with ten, eight with eleven. The third tier is the field between you, where attraction and distance work at the same time. The bottom tier reads as a course: season, obstacle, help, choice, and the star the road leads to.
Positions
Your ideal
How you picture real love, and what you inevitably measure this relationship against.
Hope
What keeps you alive in this bond and what you expect from it each morning.
Illusion
What you mistake for love when it is habit, pity, fear, or gratitude.
Fear
The fear that looks down at you from this sky and governs your decisions.
Truth of the feeling
What you actually feel once ideal, hope and fear are taken out of the picture.
What you feel
Your living feeling toward your partner these weeks, with no judgement or explanation.
What you do
How your actions look from outside and what message they send your partner.
What you hide
What you keep to yourself: plans, doubts, resentment, or another person.
What they feel
Your partner's genuine feeling toward you now, however inconvenient it turns out.
What they do
What your partner actually does for the relationship and what they do against it.
What they hide
What your partner conceals from you and why they consider that silence justified.
Attraction
What pulls you toward each other most strongly, even after quarrels and pauses.
Distance
What keeps you apart: circumstances, pride, other people, or different rhythms of life.
The strongest tie
The sturdiest thread between you, which neither quarrels nor separation manage to break.
The slow erosion
What erodes the bond unnoticed, drop by drop, and is usually seen far too late.
The unsaid
The conversation that never happened between you and on which a great deal depends.
The coming season
The overall tone of your relationship through the next two or three months.
The obstacle
What stands in the way during this period and demands a decision from you both.
The help
Where support comes from: a person, a circumstance, or a resource of yours you forgot.
The choice
The decision you will have to take and cannot leave to circumstance to settle.
The star of the road
Where this road leads in the end and what makes walking it worthwhile.
