Your question What would the bravest version of me do today?

The spread

The figure who set it up Ares Conflict with a purpose, and the courage to be disliked. What to avoid: A fight continued past its reason.
The figure in the room Hera Partnership, terms, and the negotiation inside a long arrangement. What to avoid: Dignity defended at the cost of honesty.
The figure who leaves Zeus Authority, decision and the loneliness of the last word. What to avoid: Power used because it is available.

The reading opens with the figure who set the situation up, and in the old stories that figure is almost never you.

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

Let the answer be obvious and unimpressive.

Ask again after the full moon.

You are permitted to want the simpler life.
