Okay, so, about this “the hermit love outcome” thing. I’ve been messing around with tarot cards for a while now, just for fun, you know? And I decided to try a reading focusing on, well, love. Specifically, what happens if the Hermit card shows up in the outcome position of a love reading. Sounds a little gloomy, right?
First, I grabbed my favorite deck – the one with the really cool artwork. I shuffled the cards, really focusing on my question. Like, I was picturing a relationship, and wondering about its future, and how the Hermit might play into that. I cut the deck, then laid out the cards in a simple three-card spread: past, present, and future (outcome).
The Reading
- Past: I can’t remember the card, Let’s say it was a happy, social card. Maybe the Lovers.
- Present: Whatever, it was probably something neutral, something like the Two of Pentacles.
- Outcome: Boom. The Hermit.
My initial reaction? Kind of a “huh” moment. The Hermit, all alone, with his lantern. It doesn’t exactly scream “happily ever after,” does it? But then I started thinking about it. The Hermit isn’t necessarily bad. It’s about introspection, taking time for yourself, figuring things out on your own.
So, I spent some time just looking at the card, really thinking about what it could mean in this context. It is about needing space? Maybe a period of being single to work on yourself before being ready for a real relationship? Or could it mean that even within a relationship, you need to maintain your own sense of self, your own independence?
I jotted down some notes in my journal, just free-writing about the different possibilities. It might mean needing to be alone for a bit. It’s not saying “you’ll be alone forever,” but more like, “you’ll need some solid ‘me’ time to grow.” Or maybe that a relationship will require a lot of inner work and soul-searching, from both sides.
I realized that the “outcome” isn’t set in stone. It’s more like a potential direction. And the Hermit’s message, at least how I interpreted it, is about being mindful and deliberate. Don’t rush into anything. Take the time to understand yourself and what you truly want.
I have written all my thougts and shared with you all.
