Scorpio: Looking at what has been avoided may reveal where change is needed. "Temperance" sets the scene; "6 · Cups" raises the challenge. Its Water element, Mars rulership and traditional link to "Death" provide symbolic context for the sign, not a claim about today's planetary transits.

Reading summary
Reading summary
The sequence begins with "Temperance", moves through "Knight · Cups", and ends with "Knight · Swords". 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.
Cups is the dominant suit; consider how its theme runs through the whole spread.
Several reversed cards add friction or delay; their positions show where the process may need attention.
Several court cards put different ways of acting and relating in focus; they do not establish anyone’s age or gender.
Repeated Knight 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.
