Your question How do I stop carrying this?

The spread

  1. The figure who set it up Ares Conflict with a purpose, and the courage to be disliked. What to avoid: A fight continued past its reason.
  2. The figure in the room Demeter Nourishment, the harvest and grief that changes the world. What to avoid: Care that becomes control.
  3. The figure who leaves Hephaestus The maker, the workshop, and value created by repeated effort. What to avoid: Craft used to avoid being seen.

Before the figures, a note: myths are not moral instructions. They are patterns, and patterns can be stepped out of.

With Demeter in the middle, the reading names the figure you have been cast as without agreeing to it.

The last role is the returning one, which means the week ends with someone coming back into a room.

What to do
