POEM- THE HERMIT

The Hermit.
The ninth card of the major arcana.
The grey card of the tarot.

Solitude,searching,guidance, introspection.

The hermit holds his lantern
looking pensively to the ground.

His lantern signifies a period
of searching,questioning.
The need to be alone.
To rest from the travails of the world.

To meditate.
To seek guidance for the future.

After a period of solitude
and reflection.
The hermit can reconsider
his quest and start a new
journey,a new beginning.

Thus the hermit can become
the fool.
The first card of the major arcana.
Beginning,spontaneity
and faith in the future.
