Let's meet the Hierophant Terror Card.

The Hierophant card is significant in terms of following and questioning.

One symbology from the Conspiracy Terror is to maximize when something needs to be questioned through the imagery of some of the cards.

The Hierophant initially recommends you to follow a structured set of guidelines,

Generally imposed by people with either more degrees than you or people who have an allegedly superior spirituality,

Aka religious hierarchy.

You might be settled in life with a good job and a good set of activities,

And even you can feel aligned spiritually with your beliefs.

You don't want to fix or change what is not broken,

And it's working well for you.

The Hierophant here could come up and tell you to make no changes and to keep up with what is working well for you,

And this is fantastic.

Take this as a profound validation that you are doing things rightfully for your goals.

As far as upright meanings,

I have to say that being in this situation might be a way of saying an easy life.

However,

Are you truly happy?

You might love following rules and making sure that some other heads think while they create a safe pathway for you.

This is not bad,

We need both leaders and followers.

But you need to be the right follower making sure your leaders are right for you.

You are likely to have everything aligned in your life,

To the point of feeling comfortable and happy.

If this is true for you,

Then certainly you are aligned with the Hierophant tarot card.

You can rely on what the Hierophant has for you because,

In a way,

They will deliver to you exactly what you want to see.

So far so good,

Right?

This card holds a massive polarity,

But at the same time both teachings from straight or reverse apply in both directions.

The Hierophant has a very mystifying energy that can easily take you through a sea of confusion,

Ultimately tweaking you and encouraging you to follow.

Not so far so good anymore,

Right?

Well,

I will flip the coin again.

If this Hierophant doesn't have an agenda and their highest purpose is to help you unconditionally,

You can surely follow their teachings.

This card,

When not in reverse,

Reminds you that,

However,

I would recommend that you have keen eyes still,

To ensure that your leaders keep aligned.

Let's go a little bit deeper.

For love and relationships,

If you are in the Hierophant tarot card in an upright position,

You can tell that you have a strong relationship with a strong foundation.

The both of you have likely adjusted to each other,

Yielding to a relationship where there is loyalty and love.

You have solid friendships,

Probably friendships that took you years to build up,

But that now is great because everybody invested a fair amount of energy in the friendship.

Money and career.

An upright position for the Hierophant tarot card means that you are likely doing as well as you are.

Your finances are balanced and you keep a conservative approach to life.

You are focusing on saving up and you don't need to make risky financial decisions.

In your job,

You are essential in your position for everything to keep going in alignment.

So make sure to keep your same work ethic and don't attempt to do anything new.

If you are in a group of colleges,

Make sure to not change anyone in the group or how you are organized.

Health and spirituality.

You are comfortable with your spirituality and your beliefs.

You find them to be in alignment.

You may be more comfortable following a spiritual leader versus following a path in spirituality.

You prefer to follow a set of rules,

Such as being very strict in following a balanced diet every day,

Working out and other must-do for your body.

While this is fantastic,

You might take it to the extreme and avoid that barbecue or party with your friends because of the food or the alcohol.

And that's not ideal.

Ultimately,

If you are connected to the Hierophant tarot card in an upright position,

You are doing great overall.

However,

You might want to do two things.

Firstly,

Perhaps have a little fun.

And second,

For you to still ensure now and then that the alignments you have in life are making you happy instead of making you feel trapped.

I am sure that throughout your life,

Your priorities will change.

So it's good to keep checking.

Now,

As far as reverse meanings,

Let's say that you have been following a religious faith for a very long time.

However,

You are now at a point where you are not sure anymore.

You have asked your religious leaders and their answer didn't fulfill your spiritual needs.

You start to question and seek a different path for your spirituality.

If this is true for you,

You are in the classic position of a reverse,

The Hierophant tarot card.

However,

This could also be starting to disagree with the company's motives,

Where you worked for years,

Or even a group or identity taking a turn and disagreeing with you.

The Hierophant tarot card reverse arrives in your life as a challenge,

And a lot of times a difficult one.

You will be making major changes in your life,

Belief system,

Or even what or who you are casually following.

Are you going through a spiritual awakening?

While we are constantly awakening and learning more and more,

It's true that the first steps put you in a reverse Hierophant situation.

You are not blind by the absent promises of politicians.

As a reverse Hierophant will never follow,

But question and perhaps even revolt.

You cannot put your entire life upside down.

Not all at once.

Well,

You may,

Actually,

But it is not for the faint of heart.

As we talked about it in the past,

You need to be compassionate with yourself.

However,

You cannot lie to yourself if you know something is wrong.

If you find yourself selling questionable used cars,

And you cannot just follow the company's rules of selling whatever clunker they have available,

You only have one option.

So make sure to make one change at a time when you find the need to.

And now let's go to the specifics.

As far as love and relationships,

If you are in the Hierophant tarot card in a reverse position,

You might have some problems in your relationship.

One or both of you have stopped communicating with each other.

Even the both of you might have broken foundational rules for a healthy relationship such as love,

Loyalty,

And desire for the highest purpose for the other person.

You might have lost the connection with your group of friends.

Maybe they start with a new hobby that you don't feel drawn to.

Money and career.

It is time to change how you are approaching your professional and financial challenges.

It is not working.

This doesn't mean that you are doing it wrong.

But the rules you are following don't work anymore,

Regardless of how long they did.

They could be changes in the management of your company,

New corruption,

Or something that breaks the harmony that otherwise was present before.

Change whatever financial strategies you have.

Talk to your financial advisor.

Health and spirituality.

You are following some beliefs that might not be true for you anymore.

Perhaps you have a lesion in your ankle.

And you cannot run anymore your 15 daily kilometers.

You need to find a different way to keep up with the same degree of workout.

Especially if you need it.

But an alternative approach,

For example,

Biking.

This would be the great,

Great example.

Especially if you want more sports,

But you cannot use your ankle.

You are awake and spiritual and you cannot follow the teachings imposed on you as a kid.

So you question and seek change.

Ultimately,

If you are connected to the Hero of Ontario card in a reverse position,

You might be entering a phase of interesting moments,

But also challenging.

You should never be afraid of change,

Especially if your beliefs are guiding you.

You need to prepare yourself.

That's all.

And the first step is for you to reflect on what brought you to start questioning things.

You will be able to realign yourself in a much better position than you were before.

Now you should reflect on the following questions.

And once you do,

Feel free to leave a comment and share your thoughts and findings.

This will help others a lot.

Have you really stopped to question those leaders you listen to?

Do you feel fear when you are being educated spiritually?

What are you doing to prevent manipulation?

I hope these questions help you bring something that will improve your life,

Even a little.

Namaste
