Your question What would I do if nobody were watching?

The spread

  1. The star behind you Cassiopeia A queen upside down half the year. Dignity that survives rearrangement. What to avoid: Pride that will not accept a new position.
  2. The star above Sirius The brightest star, and the least subtle. Ambition with an audience. What to avoid: Visibility mistaken for achievement.
  3. The star ahead Sirius The brightest star, and the least subtle. Ambition with an audience. What to avoid: Visibility mistaken for achievement.

Under Pisces and Overcast, the chart is drawn slowly, the way a navigator would draw it.

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

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

What to do

Say the short sentence rather than the long explanation.

Timing

The earliest good moment is the one you keep postponing.

Take with you

The uncomfortable hour is doing useful work.
