Your question Where am I being generous for the wrong reason?

The spread

  1. The figure who set it up Athena Strategy, craft and the intelligence that arrives fully formed. What to avoid: Cleverness used to avoid feeling anything.
  2. The figure in the room Demeter Nourishment, the harvest and grief that changes the world. What to avoid: Care that becomes control.
  3. The figure who leaves Ares Conflict with a purpose, and the courage to be disliked. What to avoid: A fight continued past its reason.

The reading opens in the middle of a story that has been running for longer than this week.

The centre figure is Demeter, and it names the part of the situation that is about craft rather than feeling.

Then the story turns and the first figure reappears in the third position, meaning the situation resolves the way it began.

What to do

Close one tab permanently.
