General Aspects

A Hierophant is a wise sage who has knowledge of ancient mysteries - a wise person and a teacher.

Help is at hand. You are being guided by this card to seek help and advice from someone. This person will provide wise counsel and moral guidance. You should put your trust in someone who you respect and admire. This could be a close friend or a relative of yours.

It is important not to let others influence you too much though. Don't let other people tell you how you should behave, especially where this goes against your nature. Follow your intuition - be true to yourself above all else.

Now is a time to be a little more traditional rather that being unconventional.

Struggles and conflict end in victory with this card. You will enjoy a realisation about what you truly want - whether this is indeed a fulfilling relationship with someone you know now, or another person yet to enter your life - perhaps even someone from your past will feature soon. Whatever transpires and whatever you decide, the future is very good in the area of what you hope and dream for.

This card indicates a growing spirituality. Either an awareness, or a need to develop this side of you. The Hierophant actually signifies a teacher, who could be a spiritual guru. Moral lessons are to be learned from events and circumstances that surround you.

The recipient of this card could be expecting a marriage, or formal legal commitment with some responsibilities attached.

With advice, knowledge, faith and tradition well represented by this card, it's time to go out in the world and make a difference -- for yourself, your loved ones, and for everybody.
