Train

The train symbol in coffee fortune reading represents planned progress, important opportunity, delayed news. The train symbolizes a process that will move forward in a planned, orderly way along a defined route. An opportunity will appear "in its own time"; the symbol urges trust in timing rather than haste. Delayed news, an appointment, or a work process may be seen alongside the train.

The number of cars can hint at the length of the process; a long train speaks of a long but consistent journey. Near the rim, the train announces a near development; close to the handle, a decision or travel within the family; at the bottom, a long-awaited opportunity finally setting off. In relationships the train speaks of moving forward slowly but surely, a long-distance connection drawing closer, or the right moment being near.
