Your question What do I need to hear today?

The spread

  1. The star behind you Cygnus The swan crossing the sky. A long movement, graceful from a distance. What to avoid: Appearing calm while paddling furiously.
  2. The star above Cassiopeia A queen upside down half the year. Dignity that survives rearrangement. What to avoid: Pride that will not accept a new position.
  3. The star ahead Sirius The brightest star, and the least subtle. Ambition with an audience. What to avoid: Visibility mistaken for achievement.

This reading is written for the hour when the street goes quiet and the sky becomes a real place again.

The central star is Cassiopeia. Its light is old and steady, and it describes a loyalty in your life that has outlived its usefulness.

The final note is about light pollution, and about how much of your own sky you have stopped looking at.
