Your question What is the kindest accurate thing to say?

The spread

  1. What the season gives First Frost A sharp, clarifying cold. Things become briefly obvious. What to avoid: A hard start read as a bad omen.
  2. What it takes Short Dusk A compressed evening and the pressure to make it count. What to avoid: Evenings scheduled to the point of exhaustion.
  3. What it asks of you Short Dusk A compressed evening and the pressure to make it count. What to avoid: Evenings scheduled to the point of exhaustion.

The omen begins with the sky and ends with a decision, which is the correct order.

The centre omen is Short Dusk, a description of autumn light and what it does to your patience.

The reading ends where the season ends: with a change of light and a decision about what to keep.
