Core interpretation
In a warm old library, a black cat sits halfway up wooden stairs between tall bookshelves and looks down calmly. It neither blocks nor invites you.
The symbols
The library offers stored knowledge; the stairs suggest gradual movement. The cat’s dark coat stands out, but it is not evidence of luck or danger.
Your feelings
Curiosity may make the scene feel welcoming. Hesitation may reflect uncertainty about what to learn next or whether you belong in the space.
A constructive reading
What question deserves slow research rather than an immediate answer? Identify one shelf, source, or person that could guide the next step. Did you climb past the cat, sit with it, or return downstairs? Was the upper floor lit?
