Lean in — Let the right amount of thought reach the page.
Watch for — Pad or starve an idea against your better sense.

- George, Asteroid Goddesses (1986)Reads Lachesis by her myth, the Measurer among the three Fates who measures the thread of life and allots each their share, as a point of measure, proportion, timing, and the apportioning of what is given.
- Hand, Horoscope Symbols (1981)Treats the meeting of the Measurer and the thinking mind as an inner dynamic of proportion, timing, and apportioning.
- Tierney, Dynamics of Aspect Analysis (1983)Reads the semi-sextile as a minor growth aspect, a subtle nudge toward integrating two neighboring principles.
