V. THE HIEROPHANT

The camel with a crown symbolizes divine authority above kingship, representing the Pope's higher position than the Emperor. The two hands holding keys represent the Pope's followers, who lock their desires for power, worshiping the Pope and the cross, indicating a higher spiritual world above materialism. Upright, the Hierophant symbolizes kindness, goodness, assistance, religious guidance, and extensive spiritual influence. Reversed, it becomes stubborn, conservative, weak, and misguides followers using its influence.
