Your question Where am I being generous for the wrong reason?

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 Centaurus Half human, half animal, and the negotiation between the two. What to avoid: Letting the instinct and the intellect work against each other.

Under Cancer and Clear sky, the chart is drawn slowly, the way a navigator would draw it.

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

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

What to do

Give the first hour of the day to the important thing.

Timing

The decision belongs to next week; the preparation belongs to this one.

Take with you

Progress is mostly unphotogenic.
