Your question Why do I keep hesitating?

The spread

  1. The star behind you Sirius The brightest star, and the least subtle. Ambition with an audience. What to avoid: Visibility mistaken for achievement.
  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 Centaurus Half human, half animal, and the negotiation between the two. What to avoid: Letting the instinct and the intellect work against each other.

The chart opens with the sky over Washington, D.C. and the feeling that you have been navigating by a smaller star than necessary.

The middle position is Sirius, a star of separation. Something is drifting, and drift is not the same as collapse.

The last line points at the sky over a city you have not visited yet.

What to do

Answer the email you have been avoiding.

Timing

Wait for the second thought, then move quickly.
