Hermit Gone Wild


They were sitting there among all the witchy paraphernalia and I was drawn to them. To be honest I’m not even sure if this is one of my decks or a former partners… or maybe it was a gift? They seemed too large for my hands as I shuffled, but I did it anyways because I was a little high from the meditative rededication and it didn’t seem to matter. I asked “Where will this take me?” Intending the 1st card to be the now, the 2nd card to be the journey, and the 3rd to be the destination. Some part of me was delighted that they were all up right as they revealed themselves.

My interpretation:

A time of introspection is needed right now, you are in a phase of self reflection and self care. Be aware that along the way there will be times of high motivation just be sure not to take on too much too fast. Nostalgia awakens as you start to share your path with a younger counterpart. It will be nothing if not invigorating!

This couldn’t be any more fitting had I thumbed through the deck and found the cards myself. I am the type, as you may have read, to just dive head first into the fray and tire myself out too quickly so seeing the knight is not a surprise. And it’s so lovely and remarkable to see the 6 of Cups card that represents childhood and sharing. I have been a hermit of late, and maybe a little stuck, so having a little energetic boost from the knight might be a good thing. Just gotta make sure I keep my eyes open and on the prize, my own wellbeing, so that I can better pass along this gift to another generation.
