20201031-Should my wife and I buy extra food now to get us through Winter?
One of the customers shopping in my store commented, “You had better get some extra groceries laid in soon—Did you see how a lot of the farmers plowed their crops under in the Spring? There are going to be shortages, you'll see....”
This too looks like a good question for Geomancy to address!
Question: “Should my wife and I buy extra food now to get us through the Winter?”
Casting in the usual way with intent to use the house chart brought up the following:

Notice that this chart has symmetry across the top of the shield-- V to VIII are inverted mirror images of I to IV. Querent and Quesited are Conjunctio, with Populus for the Judge.
I – Querent – Via – Transformation (Black Swan?)
V – Quesited – Fortuna Minor – Chance occurrence, protection by outside help, a temporary quick fix–
**And from our previous discussion, Via and Fortuna Minor in Querent and Quesited speak of a Black Swan Event (BSE). Shield Chart symmetry may mean this BSE applies to a great many folks.
So—Laying in groceries may indeed be a good idea for this Winter. Are there any clues to the nature of the BSE in the rest of the chart? It may or may not a BSE related to lost crops;
Q1 Via passes to VIII, so transformation in death? That's ominous....
Q2 Fortuna Minor does not pass.

Buying groceries now for Winter – a good idea, a quick fix that is not the long-term solution.
