Your question Is this distance growing or healing?

The spread

  1. The star behind you Orion The hunter, still walking. A pursuit that has outlasted its original reason. What to avoid: Chasing something because the chase is familiar.
  2. The star above Ursa Major The great bear and the plough. Old, protective, domestic strength. What to avoid: Protection that has become management.
  3. The star ahead Sirius The brightest star, and the least subtle. Ambition with an audience. What to avoid: Visibility mistaken for achievement.

On a Thursday in autumn, with Waxing Crescent overhead, the reading takes its scale from the sky and its detail from your week.

The centre is Ursa Major: a star of thresholds, visible only from where you are standing right now.

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