May I cast about someone who has not consented?
You may reflect on your own relationship with that person, but should not claim that a figure reveals their thoughts, health, fidelity, or future. When the core question concerns another person’s private state, interpretation easily outruns consent and evidence.
Reframe it around what you can responsibly do: “How should I communicate?” or “Given the known facts, what boundary should I set?” This keeps the reflective value without turning a symbol into a judgment of someone else.
