The hermit

The Hermit Tarot card in an upright position generally indicates that you are entering a period of soul searching, self-reflection and spiritual enlightenment.

You may find that you need time alone to gain a deeper understanding of yourself, to remove yourself from the daily grind in order to discover your true spiritual self, contemplate your existence, your direction in life or your values.

The Hermit can also indicate isolating yourself or withdrawing into oneself in order to recover from a difficult situation.

This Major Arcana trump card can suggest that you may be going through an anti-social phase where you just don’t want to interact with people as much as you normally would.

The Hermit is wise, mature and knowledgeable and may be an indication of someone seeking the services of a counsellor or psychiatrist.  

This is a time to focus on yourself and meeting your own needs.  ​
This card takes place in metallic beams and supports, with a gradient of a deep red the further away from the focused scene the background is, to a brighter yellow from mostly unseen illumination. Towers and support beams make up the upper background, whereas the central background is of a short wall, and the bottom of the card features a concrete ledge with unseen lighting below.

A cloaked figure with staff in right hand and torch in left stands on the ledge, facing towards though a bit facing to the left of the viewer. Their robes are dark and the figure seems to wear a gas mask with a tube that snakes downwards and behind their torso.

One eye of the gas mask is partially visible under the figure's hood, and it is a mild yellow in hue.
