Your question Why do I keep hesitating?

The spread

  1. The figure who set it up Artemis Independence, the forest and a life that does not need an audience. What to avoid: Solitude defended past the point of need.
  2. The figure in the room Persephone A descent and a return, and the strange authority gained between them. What to avoid: Staying in a lower place out of habit.
  3. The figure who leaves Hermes Messages, negotiations, and the trade that benefits both sides. What to avoid: Charm as a substitute for commitment.

The first figure arrives with Clear sky outside, and it is the one who benefits from the current arrangement.

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

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