Your question Should I speak first?

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 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 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 reading's core is Long Rain, naming the thing this month is unusually good at.

The last line warns about the middle of autumn, when everything feels either too early or too late.

Drink water before coffee.
