Upright Meanings
You're in the build phase. The plan is set. Now the work shows whether it holds. Bring in the people who know the parts you don't. Listen to the ones with their hands on the actual work. Don't try to do it alone if it doesn't need to be alone.
Reversed Meanings
The team isn't aligned. Either everyone wants to be the smartest in the room, or you're the only one carrying weight. Or the design itself is off and nobody wants to say it. Stop building until the plan and the people match.
