Your question What does my restlessness want?

The spread

  1. The figure who set it up Demeter Nourishment, the harvest and grief that changes the world. What to avoid: Care that becomes control.
  2. The figure in the room Zeus Authority, decision and the loneliness of the last word. What to avoid: Power used because it is available.
  3. The figure who leaves Hestia The hearth, the centre of a house, and the stability nobody thanks. What to avoid: Staying so centred that nothing moves.

The first role is the messenger, which is the oldest way of saying that a conversation is the whole plot.

Zeus in the middle is the figure of the hunt, describing a pursuit that has become more enjoyable than the catch.

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