Lot 44: A Heart's Door Left Ajar

Readings by situation

Single

The door of your heart is only half closed, and someone in the yard waits, lost in thought: someone may be waiting for an answer from you. Being stuck in between leaves both of you adrift. Being clear, whether yes or no, is itself a kindness.

Advice: If someone is waiting for your answer, reply to them honestly this week.

In a relationship

There is something you are holding inside and have not said, which keeps the door between you half closed. Over time this in-between state will wear you both out. Opening up gently will make everything feel easier.

Advice: Choose a quiet moment to say what you have been holding in, starting with your own feelings.

Secret crush

You are standing in the yard, lost before that person's half-closed door. The lot advises you not to wait forever in between; make your intentions clear so you know whether the door opens or closes. Any answer is better than drifting on and on.

Advice: Gently ask that person directly what they think of you, and be prepared to accept any answer.

About an ex

Your relationship with your ex is half closed: not fully back together, not fully let go. The lot says plainly that this limbo is exhausting you both. Opening or closing is fine, as long as you decide clearly and feel at peace with your choice.

Advice: Set yourself a deadline to make a firm decision, then tell your ex clearly what you have chosen.

Marriage plans

Wedding plans are in limbo, perhaps because one of you has not made your intentions clear. A half-closed door leaves you both unsure whether to prepare or wait. The lot advises speaking plainly so you know where you stand.

Advice: Ask your partner seriously whether they want to move toward marriage, and within what timeframe.

AdviceOpen or close the door, either is fine, just don't leave anyone waiting in the yard forever.
