Love & Relationships

Reversed At present, it reads as a flow where communication is not smooth or mutual rhythms are somewhat out of sync. It is interpreted as a situation where it is slightly difficult to find a compromise, as each person is putting forward their own opinion rather than considering the perspective of the other.
