    This exercise was so cool. I have had o omens in the past and it was astounding.

    Today I asked how I should move forward.
    I saw a cup, in the cup was a mountain
    and four-leaf clover in the cup on bottom.
    The second time I did it wanted to know is he the one. (relationship)
    I saw a heart with three strands.
    I don’t know what strands mean?
    But heart was confirmation
