Your question What is costing me more than it is worth?

The spread

  1. The figure who set it up Demeter Nourishment, the harvest and grief that changes the world. What to avoid: Care that becomes control.
  2. The figure in the room Hephaestus The maker, the workshop, and value created by repeated effort. What to avoid: Craft used to avoid being seen.
  3. The figure who leaves Poseidon Deep feeling, unpredictable force, and moods with a tide. What to avoid: Emotion used as an argument.

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

With Hephaestus in the middle, the reading names the figure you have been cast as without agreeing to it.

The third figure is the one who leaves, and the myth is clear that leaving is a role, not a failure.
