Your question Who am I becoming, slowly, without deciding?

The spread

What the season gives Storm Front Pressure, then release. Decisions made in this weather tend to stick. What to avoid: Arguing with the weather instead of waiting.
What it takes First Frost A sharp, clarifying cold. Things become briefly obvious. What to avoid: A hard start read as a bad omen.
What it asks of you Long Rain Days of grey that soften a decision and slow a week. What to avoid: Weather used as a reason to postpone.

It is autumn in Washington, D.C., and the reading begins with the least mysterious fact available: the light is a particular length today.

The heart of the reading is First Frost, and it names the thing that only works in this weather.

Then the omen turns and the season takes something: a habit, an hour, an illusion about your capacity.

Say the compliment out loud instead of thinking it.

Wait until you have said it out loud once.

The boundary is kind even when the voice is nervous.
