Your question Which door is actually open?

The spread

  1. The waning Harvest Moon Collect what you planted, in the order it ripens. What to avoid: Harvesting before it is ready because the light is good.
  2. The present night Dark Moon The quiet before the cycle resets. Nothing is owed today. What to avoid: Filling the silence with a decision.
  3. The returning light 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.

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

Dark Moon holds the middle and points at a decision about space: a room, a desk, a boundary.

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

What to do

Sleep before deciding anything large.

Timing

Give it one long walk to settle.
