Your question What is the kindest accurate thing to say?

The spread

  1. The waning First Quarter Friction, decision, and the need to pick a side of yourself. What to avoid: Treating a normal obstacle as a sign to stop.
  2. The present night Waxing Gibbous Refinement. Nearly there, and tempted to hurry the last part. What to avoid: Perfection applied to a finished thing.
  3. The returning light Waning Crescent Rest, low social appetite, and useful dreams. What to avoid: Reading exhaustion as a personal failure.

This reading is written for Washington, D.C. on a Friday night, with Overcast overhead.

With Waxing Gibbous in the middle, the message is about appetite, restraint and the difference between the two.

The final position turns practical: the lunar month ends soon, and whatever you want to begin should be small enough to survive the dark.

What to do

Start with the smallest version of the thing.

Timing

The month turns and takes the difficulty with it.

Take with you

You have survived a version of this already.
