Your question What is the kindest accurate thing to say?

The spread

  1. The star behind you Centaurus Half human, half animal, and the negotiation between the two. What to avoid: Letting the instinct and the intellect work against each other.
  2. The star above Lyra Music, craft and the specific discipline of a small art. What to avoid: Practising instead of performing.
  3. The star ahead Lyra Music, craft and the specific discipline of a small art. What to avoid: Practising instead of performing.

The first star is named, and the naming is the message: some things you have to call by their real name before they move.

The central star is Lyra. Its light is old and steady, and it describes a loyalty in your life that has outlived its usefulness.

The final note is about light pollution, and about how much of your own sky you have stopped looking at.

Start with the smallest version of the thing.
