I just can't seem to get this thought out of my head.
Hierophant = dictator.
I have looked at this card for weeks now and yesterday it spoke to me as a dictator.
Now does this make sense, how could he be?
The deck I am looking at is the RWS.
And there is the Hierophant sitting there.
What is he doing?
What if you do not know what the keys are?
What if you find the traditional stifling?
Why does he sit above the two people and not at their level?
Does he think he is above them?
Could he be abusing his power?
What if he represents a boss (or another authority figure), he could be a dictator?
Dictator, it's quite a harsh word, in my eyes it seems harsh I should say.
From Merrium Webster online:
"Main Entry: dic·ta·tor
Pronunciation: 'dik-"tA-t&r, dik-'
Function: noun
Etymology: Latin, from dictare
1 a : a person granted absolute emergency power; especially : one appointed by the senate of ancient Rome b : one holding complete autocratic control c : one ruling absolutely and often oppressively."
Now I have just stumbled across this definition and one appointed by the senate of ancient Rome. Would this equate to The Pope, which could also be The Hierophant?
It gets more interesting this thought as I muse.....
Would anyone like to join in my ramblings?
I need to get to the bottom of this
