V. The Hierophant

Upright: wisdom, skillful communication, offering guidance, finding truth, influential mentor, discovering the right path, receiving help from benefactors.

Reversed: conservative, traditional, stubborn, incompetent, authoritarian, ineffective assistance, blind comfort, seeking approval through improper means, third-party interference.

Soothing the soul with spirit, veiling darkness with light — all that is unknown or unattainable becomes clear to the eye of the heart, parting the clouds to reveal truth. Within a grand and solemn cathedral, she wears the triple crown symbolizing supreme authority and a deep crimson robe of faith. With serene compassion, she enlightens her followers, eyes gently closed as she grasps the Keys of the Sun and Moon, unlocking the spiritual eye that perceives all. At this moment, she is connected to the hearts of every believer, comforting their souls with her own, dispelling darkness with radiance, and guiding them from confusion through her boundless wisdom and mercy. She is the spiritual authority, the mentor of the soul, the embodiment of faith — the light that leads to truth.
