Gold goes on the good part

Navy and gold are near-opposites, so they never blur together. Here the gold is on Personal: the evenings and weekends are the bright spots of the week, and work sits quietly in blue around them. The protected time colour is a pale gold too, so the hours you keep for yourself glow a little.

The harvest moon is the full moon nearest the autumn equinox. It was the light farmers finished the harvest by, which makes it a good name for a palette about ending the day well.

Your week in harvest moon

A week in Anser in the harvest moon palette, in the Hand-drawn style, with its six hex codes
The week in the picture uses Anser’s Hand-drawn style (Settings › Appearance › Style), which draws each event as a pale marker wash of its colour inside an ink line. The palette works in every style.

An evening worth protecting

  • Pick a time the day ends, and write it down. Six is a fine choice.
  • Go outside once after dark. Ten minutes is enough to see the moon.
  • Eat without a screen at least one night this week.
  • Leave one evening empty. No plans is a plan.
