Should I Start This Business?

“Do I actually begin this?”

The 5-card layout

1. The idea as it stands
2. What you bring to it
3. What it will demand of you
4. The risk you are rounding down
5. Begin, or wait

Hold your question in mind, then shuffle.

Turning the deck is why cards come out reversed. A reversed card is not a bad card - it is the same card at a lower ebb, blocked, or on its way out.

A go or wait reading in five cards: the idea as it stands, what you bring, what it will demand of you, the risk you are rounding down, and the honest answer.

  • 5 cards
  • One person
  • Upright & reversed

What each position asks

These meanings belong to this spread. A card is read for the place it lands in, so the same card says something different in position 1 than it does in position 5.
