The year that refuses to be rushed. People who only respect speed will call it a failure.

Traditional interpretations say 2 is partnership, delay, the slow stitch. It is a terrible year to force a 1-style debut, and a decent year to let a relationship or a skill become real. Waiting is not the same as stalling. Name which one you are doing.
If you are in Year 2 and furious about it, you may be worshipping velocity. CapSage is not. Some work happens underground. Some diplomacy cannot be tweeted. The takeaway is unfashionable: do not torch a slow year because it will not perform.
Cooperation includes cooperating with time.
