Slow a spinning rune circle to a stop that lands on a tidy, matching pose

A magic circle that slows down and freezes at a random angle looks crooked, especially when its pattern repeats around it. Here is how to brake it with a steady, believable slowdown that finishes exactly on one of the neat angles, never going backwards.

Why this works

Our eyes forgive a slow stop but not a crooked finish. If the pattern repeats around the circle, many resting angles look identical, so aiming for the next one of those and adjusting the braking to match gives a calm stop that looks planned.

When not to use it

Skip it when the stopping place carries meaning, such as a wheel of fortune where each slice is a different prize and the result must be fair or chosen. There, pick the result first and plan the spin to land on it.
