Lot 56: Tuning the Strings

Fortune poem

The strings are tuned on an old guitar,
Low notes, high notes, the sound grows full;
Two people learn to sing in whispers,
Off-key a bit, then hands they pull.

Meaning of the lot

An instrument must be tuned to sound good, and two people must practice to sing in harmony. Love sometimes falls out of rhythm, but gentle adjustment brings harmony.

If you are single

Don't expect perfection from the start, the right person is one who is willing to adjust with you. Give each other a few more dates.

If you are in a relationship

A few small disagreements are normal, just retune the strings. After every off-key moment, take each other's hand and start again.

Readings by situation

Single

A newly tuned instrument gradually fills with low and high notes: the right person for you may not be perfect from the start. The lot advises you not to rule someone out after one slightly off-key date. The right person is someone willing to fine-tune things with you.

Advice: Give someone new two or three more dates before deciding whether you are a match.

In a relationship

You are like two people learning to sing together, sometimes off-key but taking each other's hand to try again. A few small disagreements are completely normal. Harmony takes practice, and every retuning makes the music sound better.

Advice: After each disagreement, each name one thing you learned so you can harmonize better next time.

Secret crush

You and that person may not be fully in rhythm yet; conversations still feel a bit awkward at times. The lot shows this can change if you spend more time together. Just as an instrument needs tuning, familiarity needs practice.

Advice: Learn more about that person's interests so your next conversations feel more natural.

About an ex

An instrument that once went out of tune can be retuned to sound lovely, if both people want to practice again. The lot shows getting back with your ex is possible if you are both willing to adjust. If only one of you is trying, letting go in peace is also how each of you can find your own melody.

Advice: Ask your ex whether they are willing to change specific things together with you before deciding.

Marriage plans

Wedding plans may hit a few off notes, such as different opinions on the celebration or family matters. The lot shows these are normal adjustments before the two of you blend into one song. Tune patiently, and your wedding will ring out beautifully.

Advice: When you disagree about the wedding, first find the points you both agree on, then discuss the differences.

AdviceHarmony takes practice, and so does love.
