Your question What is the real question under this one?

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 Artemis Independence, the forest and a life that does not need an audience. What to avoid: Solitude defended past the point of need.
  3. The figure who leaves Demeter Nourishment, the harvest and grief that changes the world. What to avoid: Care that becomes control.

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

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

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