Your question What should I protect this month?

The spread

  1. What the season gives Short Dusk A compressed evening and the pressure to make it count. What to avoid: Evenings scheduled to the point of exhaustion.
  2. What it takes Golden Hour A short window of excellent light. Use it for the thing you like. What to avoid: Spending the best hour on email.
  3. What it asks of you First Frost A sharp, clarifying cold. Things become briefly obvious. What to avoid: A hard start read as a bad omen.

The omen begins with the sky and ends with a decision, which is the correct order.

The centre omen is Golden Hour, a description of autumn light and what it does to your patience.

The last position is a small, specific joy: the kind autumn gives away for free and you have not collected.
