Your question Which promise should I renegotiate?

The spread

  1. The star behind you Ursa Major The great bear and the plough. Old, protective, domestic strength. What to avoid: Protection that has become management.
  2. The star above Aquila The eagle, carrying the thunderbolt. A task assigned by someone larger. What to avoid: Carrying a weight that was never yours.
  3. The star ahead Orion The hunter, still walking. A pursuit that has outlasted its original reason. What to avoid: Chasing something because the chase is familiar.

On a Sunday in autumn, with First Quarter overhead, the reading takes its scale from the sky and its detail from your week.

Aquila holds the centre and describes a person you have not spoken to in a while and still measure decisions against.

The closing position is a caution about borrowed goals, the kind that sound impressive in conversation.

What to do

Say no to one thing this week and mean it.
