The spread

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.
The figure in the room Hestia The hearth, the centre of a house, and the stability nobody thanks. What to avoid: Staying so centred that nothing moves.
The figure who leaves Hades Reduction, patience, and wealth that is invisible from above. What to avoid: A withdrawal mistaken for a loss.

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

The core of the reading is Hestia, the figure of the underworld, which is the mythic way of saying a period of reduction.

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

Clear one surface and the rest follows.

The right moment arrives with the returning light.

Slow is a strategy, not a failure.
