Birds in a reading

Birds is talk: messages, nerves and gatherings. Its tone is mixed, and its timing is brief, chattering. When the question asks for a plain yes or no, this card counts as mixed.

Love

Conversation and dating.

Work

Meetings, calls, presentations.

Money

Negotiations.

Health

Anxiety, a restless mind. This is not medical advice.

Shadow

Gossip, idle worry, too many words.

By age

child	Chatter and nerves.
young	Dating and messages.
adult	Meetings and negotiations.
mature	Worries talked over.
elder	News and conversation.

As a house

Birds is also the 12th house: talk and messages. Its question is What is being said, and what is only noise?. Wherever it falls in the tableau, that area of life is being described.
