Tarot Wisdom: The Hermit
In this card the fool has travelled the path, and through experience and knowledge has gained wisdom and insight. He stands alone, holding the lantern that will reveal his inner wisdom. Time has taught him that the answers he seeks, the higher calling and sense of purpose, lie only within his own soul. He reminds us of the necessity to connect with our inner spirit, to put the conditioning of the outside world aside and figure out what we believe in, what we choose to stand for.

Being disappointed in all the things you thought would bring you happiness but didn't. Introspection and solitude taken to extremes, being cut-off or out of touch with others and yourself. 4th Position: Sometimes it is difficult to keep our sense of purpose, to find our true place. In life we are told by others at all times what we should want, what we should think/feel/believe etc. This can restrict us or cause us to feel disconnected from our source. Sometimes it becomes necessary to retreat from the conditioning of the outer world, to go within and get in touch with our own needs, discover what we believe, and reestablish our own connection with our spirit and with Creator so that we can move back into the fold of life with a higher sense of purpose. This is how we are better able to enjoy the fullness and richness of all of our life experiences. 5th Position: Sometimes life calls us to find a sense of higher purpose, to leave behind the opinions/needs of the outer world, and be true to ourselves. If you are feeling torn by a decision, or feeling like something is missing, it is time to look within your own soul. Noone holds the path to your truth but you.
