Your question Who am I becoming, slowly, without deciding?

The spread

  1. The figure who set it up Hephaestus The maker, the workshop, and value created by repeated effort. What to avoid: Craft used to avoid being seen.
  2. The figure in the room Persephone A descent and a return, and the strange authority gained between them. What to avoid: Staying in a lower place out of habit.
  3. The figure who leaves Athena Strategy, craft and the intelligence that arrives fully formed. What to avoid: Cleverness used to avoid feeling anything.

Under the sky over Washington, D.C., the myth begins with an old bargain, and the bargain is still being honoured by habit.

The heart of the reading is Persephone, the figure who negotiates, which is the role this week actually requires.

The twist is generational: the pattern being played out this week was written before you were born.
