Gemini: Curiosity opens options; naming them can make a choice clearer. "The Tower" sets the scene; "Queen · Pentacles" raises the challenge. Its Air element, Mercury rulership and traditional link to "The Lovers" provide symbolic context for the sign, not a claim about today's planetary transits.

Reading summary
Reading summary
The sequence begins with "The Tower", moves through "Ace · Wands", and ends with "3 · Cups". For a question about General, the move from Context to Closure suggests a symbolic development, not a certain outcome.
Several Major Arcana cards put more weight on the underlying issue than on its immediate details.
Wands is the dominant suit; consider how its theme runs through the whole spread.
Repeated Ace cards connect separate stages of the spread; consider whether the same concern returns in a new role.
Compare this reading with actual events and conversations before making a decision.
