Your question What am I building without noticing?

The spread

  1. The waning Waning Gibbous Sharing and digestion. Say the thing while you still mean it. What to avoid: Over-explaining to people who already understood.
  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 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.

This reading is written for Washington, D.C. on a Thursday night, with Clear sky overhead.
