Cards Don’t Lie

This thing works. I am the Hermit. Whatever that means: 

You are The Hermit

Prudence, Caution, Deliberation.

Yeah, sometimes. 

The Hermit points to all things hidden, such as knowledge and inspiration,hidden enemies. The illumination is from within, and retirement from participation in current events.

The Hermit is a card of introspection, analysis and, well, virginity.

Well, that’s a little off. 

You do not desire to socialize; the card indicates, instead, a desire for peace and solitude.

So true. Eff off. 

You prefer to take the time to think, organize, ruminate, take stock. There may be feelings of frustration and discontent but these feelings eventually lead to enlightenment, illumination, clarity.

So true. Never stop effing off.

The Hermit represents a wise, inspirational person, friend, teacher, therapist. This a person who can shine a light on things that were previously mysterious and confusing.

Compliments of Theo, who is a Magician:

Skill, wisdom, adaptation. Craft, cunning, depending on dignity.
Eloquent and charismatic both verbally and in writing,
you are clever, witty, inventive and persuasive.

The Magician is the male power of creation, creation by willpower and desire. In that ancient sense, it is the ability to make things so just by speaking them aloud. Reflecting this is the fact that the Magician is represented by Mercury. He represents the gift of tongues, a smooth talker, a salesman. Also clever with the slight of hand and a medicine man - either a real doctor or someone trying to sell you snake oil.

   I am a High Priestess, so you may all bow down to me.

   Hogwash.

   Evidently I got hung. Something about Odin and a book. I’m going to quit playing cards when there’s a full bottle on the table.

   Mine said, “Eleoquent and charismatic both verbally and in writing, you are clever, witty, inventive and persuasive.”

   Clearly, this thing doesn’t work.
