SYMBOL DICTIONARY · A KNOT

A Knot in your coffee grounds

A tie that holds — a bond secured, or a tangle about to be worked gently loose.

A knot binds two readings, both hopeful. As a tie, it marks a bond made secure — a partnership, a promise, a commitment that will not slip. As a tangle, it marks a complication the cup assures you is workable: knots come undone when met with patience rather than force.

Note which it is. A firm knot near the rim celebrates a bond sealed this week; a loose one asks only for calm hands and a little time, and it will fall open in them.
