Scythe and Fish in Lenormand
Scythe is cut; Fish is money. Read in that order, the pair says: sudden cut to income.
Reading Scythe + Fish
The Scythe brings an abrupt cut or sharp decision, while the Fish places it in the realm of money, business, and flowing resources. The change is quick rather than a slow decline. In practical money matters, an income stream, client arrangement, or spending habit may stop suddenly, forcing a swift review of the budget; at work, a business deal can be severed with little warning.
How the order works
Scythe comes first and supplies the subject: a sharp cut. Fish comes second and modifies it: flowing with money. Together: A sharp cut flowing with money.
Swap them and the sentence changes. Fish + Scythe begins with money and flow and ends with cut off suddenly — A sudden cut to the budget
