Your question Where is the exit I keep walking past?

The spread

  1. What the season gives High Sun Peak light and peak exposure. Good for work, hard for rest. What to avoid: Doing the most in the least sustainable month.
  2. What it takes Long Rain Days of grey that soften a decision and slow a week. What to avoid: Weather used as a reason to postpone.
  3. What it asks of you Quiet Fog Reduced visibility and the usefulness of going slower. What to avoid: Pretending to see clearly in the fog.

This reading is written for the Sunday mood of autumn, when everything feels either late or exactly on time.

Long Rain in the middle is a seasonal instruction: open the window, close the laptop, and let the hour change.

The twist is about temperature: the season is doing something to your sleep that you are blaming on yourself.
