Todays card is The Hermit - The Seeker - 9 - Virgo
I am aware of a lot of the traditional values of this card but this one leaves me a little stumped. Like I mentioned with Doctor Lock and also Twister, this Hermit does not click with me. After reading Freesiaskye and Maan's responses to Doctor Lock, I did begin to gell with him (thanks guys); Twister, on the other hand, I don't feel close to still.
Why don't I click with this Hermit? I am not sure. There are so many odd and lovable characters in this deck that I get a little disappointed when one turns up like this and doesn't look very inspiring. For me, this guy is not inspiring in the least.
So, whats going on? The Hermit glides above the gound. The sky is a healthy blue, as is the grass a healthy and fertile green. The Hermit wears yellow (what is the symbol on his belly? I cannot make it out) and sits on a large red platform. I can not tell whether he is passing through this environment or if he is lifting from the indentation (base) on the grass. He has a long beard and also has long hair. Question marks surround him. The mountains in the distance are high and their tops are covered with snow.
Graham Cameron says of this card -
"Ahead of us lies an open stage, a landscape of unchartered territory. The unknown open land is inhabitted by the Hermit, who is here to seek enlightenment. It is important for each of us to experience silence and listen to our inner voices. The Phantasmagoric Theater has closed and we must make use of this valuable time to grow. The Hermit transports us to a new landmark, allowing us to look more deeply within ourselves. A time of meditation is upon us. The Hermit is a comtemplative person. He travels upon a historical stone and faces the past to better understand the future. The Hermit represents a time of self-inquiry.
Seek isolation, prayer, study, contemplation without distruction, a time of retreat.
Reverse: Loneliness, immaturity, narrow minded, resentful".
