Your question What is the one thing that would change everything?

The spread

  1. What the season gives Quiet Fog Reduced visibility and the usefulness of going slower. What to avoid: Pretending to see clearly in the fog.
  2. What it takes First Frost A sharp, clarifying cold. Things become briefly obvious. What to avoid: A hard start read as a bad omen.
  3. What it asks of you High Sun Peak light and peak exposure. Good for work, hard for rest. What to avoid: Doing the most in the least sustainable month.

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.

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