Your question Is this the right moment to say yes?

The spread

  1. 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.
  2. The figure in the room Athena Strategy, craft and the intelligence that arrives fully formed. What to avoid: Cleverness used to avoid feeling anything.
  3. The figure who leaves Hera Partnership, terms, and the negotiation inside a long arrangement. What to avoid: Dignity defended at the cost of honesty.

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

The centre figure is Athena, describing the inventor, and the specific loneliness of building something nobody asked for.

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