Dragon's Tail Sub-Period
A short closing window makes unfinished business easier to resolve. Delayed deliveries and obsolete arrangements come due first, so finish one old task and cancel one commitment that no longer serves a purpose.
In detail
This form begins when the Dragon's Tail takes over as the sub-period lord and ends when the next sub-period lord succeeds it. The major ruler supplies the broader agenda, while the Tail brings reduction, separation, and completion into immediate matters. Unlike a Dragon's Tail major period, it does not define the whole chapter; it closes specific loops within the chapter already in progress.
FAQ
- When does a Dragon's Tail sub-period end?
- It ends when the next sub-period ruler takes over. Because it occupies only part of a major period, it does not define the whole long-term chapter, although it can bring delayed work and obsolete arrangements to a head; check the current sub-period boundaries before scheduling closures.
- What should I handle during a Dragon's Tail sub-period?
- Handle matters that are nearly complete or no longer useful. At the sub-period level, the Tail concentrates reduction and closure in a limited area, and an arrangement may occasionally expire abruptly without signaling a total life change; clear old tasks and cancel hollow commitments first.
