The answer
Not until you've sat with it alone. Ask again once you've stopped consulting other people about it.
What argues for it
You have thought about it alone and at length, which is worth more than any second opinion.
Reversed
You know your own mind here, though you have kept it too much to yourself to test it.
When it moves
A period of withdrawal first, then movement — do not skip the solitude to get to the answer faster.
What to do about it
Go quiet before you decide. The clarity you're looking for is not going to arrive in a crowded room or a fast conversation — it needs the kind of solitude you've probably been avoiding.
Reversed
Come back down the mountain. Whatever you learned alone is meant to be brought back and shared, not kept as a private possession.
