Your question What do I need to hear today?

The spread

  1. What the season gives Golden Hour A short window of excellent light. Use it for the thing you like. What to avoid: Spending the best hour on email.
  2. What it takes High Sun Peak light and peak exposure. Good for work, hard for rest. What to avoid: Doing the most in the least sustainable month.
  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.

The reading opens with the weather over Washington, D.C., because weather is the only honest small talk and the only honest omen.

The reading's core is High Sun, naming the thing this month is unusually good at.

The final omen is about the first cold morning, which arrives like an instruction rather than an event.
