[originally by mandy:- in between logging out and logging back in ive shuffled the cards and turned three over,one of them was the hermit,i havent had this card in a reading for myself before so should i take notice of it?[/quote] It is my considered opinion that any card that comes up in any spread deserves our attention
Each card has a message and a lesson for us
Did you assign positional attributes to the three cards you turned over? What influence did the other two cards have on the hermit? Did they strenghten or negate the message of the card? Did the Hermits relative place in the three cards have any significance? Did the three cards tell a story? its telling me not to make hasty decsions an if ive been unwell to rest,which i have been unwell due to asthma
[/quote] Norma Cowie says that that the Hermit is delivering the message that the person for whom the card shows its face is in need of more knowledge
In many decks the Hermit has a latern containing a six-pointed star; the Star of Radiant Energy, his lamp is called the Lamp of Truth
What symbols does the card in your decks contain? What do those symbols mean? Does the Hermit in your deck have a staff? Does his cloak cover his head, his face or his head and shoulders? Which direction is he walking? Does that have any significance? Is the tableau day or night? What does that mean? A seeker of silences am I, and what treasure have I found in silences that I may dispense with confidence? If this is my day of harvest, in what fields have I sowed the seed, and in what unremembered season? If this indeed be the hour in which I lift up my lantern, it is not my flame that shall burn therein
Empty and dark shall I raise my lantern, And the guardian of the night shall fill it with oil and he shall light it also
