Your question Where is the exit I keep walking past?

The spread

  1. The waning Wandering Moon A night that will not settle. Useful for writing, useless for deciding. What to avoid: Making a promise at three in the morning.
  2. The present night Wandering Moon A night that will not settle. Useful for writing, useless for deciding. What to avoid: Making a promise at three in the morning.
  3. The returning light New Moon A blank page and a low battery at the same time. Begin small. What to avoid: Starting five things because everything looks possible.

The first line of this reading is about water, and about everything in you that behaves like water.

The centre card is Wandering Moon, describing the strange clarity that shows up at 36% illumination and disappears by morning. Write it down.

The twist is temporal. In about four days, this will all feel obvious, and you will wonder why it took a calendar.
