Your question Where is the exit I keep walking past?

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 Aquila The eagle, carrying the thunderbolt. A task assigned by someone larger. What to avoid: Carrying a weight that was never yours.
  3. The star ahead Aquila The eagle, carrying the thunderbolt. A task assigned by someone larger. What to avoid: Carrying a weight that was never yours.

This reading is written for the hour when the street goes quiet and the sky becomes a real place again.

Aquila in the middle is a star of return: a place, a project or a person that comes back around this autumn.

The last star is unremarkable, and that is the point. Most of a good life is unremarkable and correctly aimed.
