Your question What is about to change without warning?

The spread

  1. The waning 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.
  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 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.

The lunar reading opens quietly, because the moon never shouts and is never wrong about the tide.

The middle position holds Waxing Gibbous. It says your body is running about four days ahead of your plans.

The last line warns about over-committing near the new moon, when enthusiasm outruns capacity.
