Your question What am I pretending not to know?

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 Polaris The fixed point. Direction found by staying still rather than searching. What to avoid: Standing still so long the direction becomes an excuse.
  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.

Before the first position, a note: the stars are not fate. They are a very old map that still works.

Polaris holds the middle and points at a small inheritance: a habit, a phrase, a way of apologising that came from someone else.

The chart ends where navigation always ends: with one direction and a decision about when to start walking.

What to do

Repair one thing before starting a new one.
