Your question Which version of the story is true?

The spread

  1. The waning Full Moon Everything visible, including what you hoped was not. Sleep suffers. What to avoid: Acting on a feeling that peaks and drops within a day.
  2. The present night Dark Moon The quiet before the cycle resets. Nothing is owed today. What to avoid: Filling the silence with a decision.
  3. The returning light Waxing Gibbous Refinement. Nearly there, and tempted to hurry the last part. What to avoid: Perfection applied to a finished thing.

The first line of this reading is about water, and about everything in you that behaves like water.

At the centre, Dark Moon: an instruction to protect the hours before midnight, which are currently doing most of your thinking for you.

The twist is temporal. In about four days, this will all feel obvious, and you will wonder why it took a calendar.
