For those of us living modern lives in the west, there’s not much of a reference point for The Hermit. Not a realistic one, anyway. Don’t worry, this card isn’t suggesting that you should go meditate on a mountaintop. It is about processing wisdom, taking what you’ve learned from the great thinkers of the ages and balancing that with what you’ve learned in your own experience. You can do that wherever you live – you don’t have to turn your back on society but you do have to find your stillness. This card is about trusting your own voice,writing your own metaphors, sharing your observations. Turn away from the external chaos and listen to what’s going on inside. Your wisdom, when shared, will be a light in the darkness for others.
