Your question What will I regret not trying?

The spread

  1. The waning Waning Gibbous Sharing and digestion. Say the thing while you still mean it. What to avoid: Over-explaining to people who already understood.
  2. The present night Waxing Gibbous Refinement. Nearly there, and tempted to hurry the last part. What to avoid: Perfection applied to a finished thing.
  3. The returning light First Quarter Friction, decision, and the need to pick a side of yourself. What to avoid: Treating a normal obstacle as a sign to stop.

The reading opens with Waxing Crescent because the moon is the only clock that cares how you actually feel.

The centre of this reading is Waxing Gibbous. It describes a phase, not a personality: something in you is currently half-lit and pretending to be finished.

The last position is a caution about nostalgia, which is strongest when the moon is fullest and least accurate.
