Mice and Garden in Lenormand
Mice is loss; Garden is community. Read in that order, the pair says: stress circulating through your social circle.
Reading Mice + Garden
Mice bring a slow leak of energy, worry and small losses, and here that drain runs through the Garden's public and social sphere. What would otherwise be a lively group, event or network becomes tiring, costly or subtly corrosive. In ordinary work life this can look like too many meetings, favours or social obligations that leave you depleted and behind on your own tasks. Keep an eye on where your resources and goodwill are trickling away.
How the order works
Mice comes first and supplies the subject: loss and stress. Garden comes second and modifies it: out in the open. Together: Loss and stress out in the open.
Swap them and the sentence changes. Garden + Mice begins with the public and community and ends with eroding away — Worries gnawing at social life
