Your question Where am I being generous for the wrong reason?

The spread

  1. The figure who set it up Hestia The hearth, the centre of a house, and the stability nobody thanks. What to avoid: Staying so centred that nothing moves.
  2. 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.
  3. The figure who leaves Hephaestus The maker, the workshop, and value created by repeated effort. What to avoid: Craft used to avoid being seen.

Before the figures, a note: myths are not moral instructions. They are patterns, and patterns can be stepped out of.

At the centre, Hera, the figure of war conducted badly: a conflict continued past its purpose.

The closing figure warns about a bargain that looks generous and has a term attached.
