IX. THE HERMIT

Symbol of origin, the image is akin to a zero, an egg, or a cocoon. The purpose of existence is not to dwell in a nihilistic void but to light up reality with originality. Acknowledge your past, for within it lie beautiful energies. Be your own creator. Embark on a new journey with awakened senses. Do not rely on others to be your caretakers or saviors. Embrace the process of self-discovery and transformation.
