Dignified: The
Hierophant represents the Holy Spirit and connection with Life at a
spiritual level. The Hierophant finds comfort and worth with the
spiritual side of life rather then the physical. He represents someone
who is spiritual or philosophical in nature and one in search of higher
truths. The Hierophant also represents tradition in that he finds
comfort and value in the new by relating it to the old tried and true
ways of life. He feels that connecting with the Creator is the most
effective form of action and advises prayer above other means of
communication. The Hierophant depicts someone who is able to see
through the superficial and get straight to the heart of the matter.
The Hierophant is spiritual by nature and he shies away from religious
dogma.
Ill-Dignified:
In a reversed position the Hierophant represents superficiality and a lack of moral or
spiritual truths. It signifies a militaristic or dogmatic attitude
or a reliance
on religious law rather then spiritual awareness. Reversed the
Hierophant depicts a person who is rough, rigid, and only sees one path
as being the sole correct answer. |
