Your question Which door is actually open?

  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 Aphrodite Desire, beauty and the practical work of being wanted. What to avoid: Worth measured by attention received.
  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.

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

Aphrodite holds the middle and points at the figure of the threshold: the one who decides what crosses.

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