Your question Where does this path actually lead?

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 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.
  3. The returning light Waxing Crescent Momentum that is real and easily broken. Protect it with routine. What to avoid: Telling everyone before the habit exists.

It is a Sunday in autumn, and the sky is 36% lit, which is exactly the kind of half-tone this reading works in.

The core of the reading is New Moon, and it names the thing you are ready to stop explaining to people.

Then the reading reverses itself, which is what the moon does: what felt like a loss of energy is a redistribution of it.

What to do

Repair one thing before starting a new one.

Timing

The decision belongs to next week; the preparation belongs to this one.
