Your question What does this silence mean?

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 Hephaestus The maker, the workshop, and value created by repeated effort. What to avoid: Craft used to avoid being seen.

The first figure is the one who made the first move, and the reading is careful to note that intention and outcome are different gods.

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

Then the reading names the exit, and notes that in most versions of this story it was available from the start.

Set a timer and work badly for twenty minutes.
