05 - The Hierophant
The Hierophant
Are you the mediator or one of the two congregates ?. The Hierophant is in essence not working on his own behalf, apart from the fact that he might be a believer and as such his work fulfils his desire, to serve what he mediates. So he is a servant, even though a high ranking one in society.
He is a person who brings people in contact with that which is deemed true & holy. At his feet are two keys giving access to what, heaven and salvation ? Or acceptance into the group, once you have pledged your belief to the holiness in question. On a more worldly level the card represents the teacher and the student, it could be time to be either one or the other.
Prediction: Now may be the time for surrender to something greater. It could be to God, but also to the morale and rules of society, or a group which represents the truth for you. On the other hand, you might be in a situation where you have the means to help people connect with something higher.
Keywords: Service of the higher, The search for or help with salvation, Teach or learn, Choice of direction, Inner and outer, To comply with social standards, Orthodoxy.
