Your question Should I speak first?

The spread

  1. The figure who set it up Persephone A descent and a return, and the strange authority gained between them. What to avoid: Staying in a lower place out of habit.
  2. The figure in the room Aphrodite Desire, beauty and the practical work of being wanted. What to avoid: Worth measured by attention received.
  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.

The first figure is the one who made the first move, and the reading is careful to note that intention and outcome are different gods.

At the centre, Aphrodite: the figure of the return, meaning something comes back and must be recognised rather than resisted.

The final role is the witness, and it is the least dramatic and most useful part you could take.

What to do

Let the answer be obvious and unimpressive.

Timing

The decision belongs to next week; the preparation belongs to this one.

Take with you

Progress is mostly unphotogenic.
