- Angle

- Illumination

- In the cycle
- days seventeen to twenty-one
The light is going back out. This is the disseminating phase: the part of the cycle where an experience is turned into something you can say, teach or hand to someone else.
Nothing new needs to be built. What happened at the Full Moon needs to be understood, and the understanding tends to arrive in conversation rather than alone.
What it is good for
- Tell someone what you learned; that is the phase's actual function.
- Write it down while it is still fresh enough to be honest.
- Pay debts of thanks.
