Reading it well

Read 1 against 4 and 2 against 5: how each person shows up versus what each actually needs.

The connection card

Position 3 describes the space between two people, not either of them. It is the card to ask questions of.

An example reading

“Where is this relationship heading?”

  2. 2 · ThemKnight of Wands
  3. 3 · ConnectionTemperance
  4. 4 · Your needsFour of Wands
  5. 5 · Their needsEight of Wands
  6. 6 · OutcomeTwo of Pentacles

You arrive as the Queen of Cups, feeling everything and holding it with care; they arrive as the Knight of Wands, all speed and heat. Temperance between you says the mix can work if both of you adjust. You want the Four of Wands, a home and a celebration; they want the Eight, movement and momentum. The Two of Pentacles as the outcome is a relationship that juggles those needs, and keeps juggling.
