Your question Where does this path actually lead?

The spread

  1. The waning Waxing Gibbous Refinement. Nearly there, and tempted to hurry the last part. What to avoid: Perfection applied to a finished thing.
  2. The present night Waxing Crescent Momentum that is real and easily broken. Protect it with routine. What to avoid: Telling everyone before the habit exists.
  3. The returning light Full Moon Everything visible, including what you hoped was not. Sleep suffers. What to avoid: Acting on a feeling that peaks and drops within a day.

The moon stands at Waxing Crescent, and the whole reading takes its rhythm from that fact rather than from your mood.

At the centre, Waxing Crescent: an instruction to protect the hours before midnight, which are currently doing most of your thinking for you.

The reading ends on the returning light: not comfort, but evidence that the dark has a schedule.
