Is a general reading less useful than a focused one?

Different, not lesser. General readings have a way of pulling up the thing you actually came to ask about, which isn't always the thing you thought you came to ask about.

The Practice

General Guidance readings

For when you don't have a specific question and want to see what surfaces.

General readings are open. You arrive without a fixed question and the reader pulls a spread that reflects whatever is most live in your field right now. These can be a really useful check-in at the start of a season, after a big transition, or when you can tell something is asking for your attention and you haven't been able to name what. They often surface things you didn't think you were going to talk about.
