Your question Is this a beginning or an ending in disguise?

The spread

  1. The figure who set it up Athena Strategy, craft and the intelligence that arrives fully formed. What to avoid: Cleverness used to avoid feeling anything.
  2. The figure in the room Hades Reduction, patience, and wealth that is invisible from above. What to avoid: A withdrawal mistaken for a loss.
  3. The figure who leaves Demeter Nourishment, the harvest and grief that changes the world. What to avoid: Care that becomes control.

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

The centre figure is Hades, and it names the part of the situation that is about craft rather than feeling.

The closing note is a caution about the figure of the trickster, and about information you have taken on trust.
