Ooh, I love that you're doing a card-a-week deep dive — what a soulful way to connect with the deck. 💛
The Hermit is such a powerful guide. It’s not just about solitude — it’s about purposeful solitude. It’s the quiet inner voice that only gets clearer when we step away from the noise. Sometimes when this card shows up, it’s an invitation to tune out the external and really listen in. Not isolate — but illuminate.
In my life, The Hermit tends to show up when I need to stop chasing answers outside of myself and instead start trusting that the lantern I'm carrying has enough light to guide the next step — even if I can't see the whole path yet.
And on a more nurturing note: The Hermit reminds me it’s okay to pull back and regroup. To be alone without being lonely. It’s a card of wisdom, but also of gentleness — like a spiritual exhale.
