The Hermit

A solitary lantern glows through the mist—wisdom sparks the path to the stars

The elderly hand emphasizes the Hermit’s age—he holds wisdom and experience refined through time.

The robe symbolizes profound knowledge.

Mist veils the road ahead—now is the time to pause and reflect on the direction forward.

The staff hints at the hardships of the journey already taken.

The Virgo constellation, serving as the lamp’s medium, guides the next steps through rational analysis and attention to detail.

The lantern only lights a short distance ahead, meaning no one can guarantee that the next choice is the right one. What lies before us is merely a fleeting glimpse, yet we must continue to walk forward regardless.
