Upright: a starting interpretation
Reflect on mutual respect, clear communication and balanced connection. The keywords reciprocity, connection describe a theme to examine in your present situation. Compare that theme with something you have actually noticed; it need not explain every part of your question.
Reversed: a question to explore
An apparent connection may need a clearer conversation about mutual expectations.
A reversal can suggest an inward, blocked or overemphasized theme. It does not automatically mean the opposite of the upright card. Decide whether it fits the question and the position you chose.
A question for your journal

Bring it into a spread
Ask what each person needs rather than guessing their intention.
Choose your positions before drawing. Use Situation / Obstacle / Next step to keep the meaning connected to your question. Your own observations can differ from these notes.
