Your question Who deserves more of my time?

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 Vega A calibration star. Used to measure everything except itself. What to avoid: Being the reference point for others and lost to yourself.
  3. The star ahead Aquila The eagle, carrying the thunderbolt. A task assigned by someone larger. What to avoid: Carrying a weight that was never yours.

The chart opens with the sky over Washington, D.C. and the feeling that you have been navigating by a smaller star than necessary.

The chart's core is Vega, and it names a skill you underestimate because it comes easily to you.

The closing position warns about a plan that only works if everyone behaves. They will not.
