Hermit Eight of Cups

Tarot Readings for You for March 22-23, 2018 Thursday-Friday©

GUIDANCE        The old man is always walking through the neighborhood, on the way home after a day’s work. He stands out in a crowd as someone who gets along at work and at home, with his warm and caring ways, someone everyone is happy with. A calm older man in whose presence everyone unconsciously sheds their issues, a Mister Rogers sort of guy who is the helpful friend. We are watching him today.

Hermit – An old man is on foot in the snow on a dark night. He carries a lamp to find travelers who could use his help. He takes them back to his hermitage, his monastery where he lives. All the characteristics of his story make meanings for Hermit and more. I will give the full account, quoted from a previous post, at the end of this.

.

Hermit comes to the aid, helps people, is sincerely warm and caring, a helpful and devoted friend.

.

Hermit is all about looking for. The lamp is all about seeing. Hermit applies to investigating, watching, witnessing, inspecting, and even surveillance.

.

Hermit is walking, is on a trip, is on his way. He can be about a journey or a trip. Today he is ‘walking distance’ even.

.

This is an elderly man, and Hermit (along with Emperor) can be an elderly man or person, or elderly people.

.

As a monk, Hermit applies to all sorts of virtues. Today he is sane, honest, sincere, calm, wise, caring, and patient.

.

Some other things Hermit represents are: to know, night, the night shift, and a medic or doctor – because Hermit’s robe are what doctors wore back in the day.

.

And now I reprint here something I wrote in a past post because it’s pithy and memorable:

.

“Hermit – You put a story together about an elderly monk who is a doctor who goes out on frigid mountain passes at night with a lamp to locate travelers, help them, and treat them to a warm bed and hot meal, and you have a lot of elements you can apply to your Tarot story. He is on the road, on a trip. He is also a guide, and a wise counselor. Hermit is sane, rational, logical. This card applies to objective and realistic perspectives.

Let’s talk about the meanings he uses in today’s story, shall we? He is an old man, so ‘elderly’ belongs to Hermit. He is helping people, is devoted. He is out looking, which covers ‘search’ and looking or watching, and which expands to ‘investigation’ and inspecting.

He is on foot, which brings you ‘pedestrian’ at times, and which also expands to ‘comes to’ – being the person who comes to another person. It is night time and he has a light, which brings any night scene, the word ‘night,’ and its synonyms, and also phrases about a flashlight or other light. (For instance, Hermit with Chariot can be night driving, or even the view from a car’s headlights.)

Hermit is a monk, so it can interpret as characteristics of a religious, including such virtues as: patient, calm, devoted, honest, values, and chastity (not being sexual) – which, these days, turns into being true to a lover, being straight, etc.

Hermit is also a friend, which grows naturally out of doing things for people – a helpful friend, a devoted friend.

Hermit is an old man, so this is the card for elderly man or men, or elderly people.

Not today, but Hermit is the main card for doctors and other medics. His clothes designate him as a doctor in the Middle Ages.

You know how people call someone who keeps to himself and minds his or her own business a hermit? Well, I can’t remember this card ever stepping up to that plate, but maybe you will live to see it? (There are several other cards that perfectly describe the mind-your-own-business homebody lifestyle, so Hermit doesn’t need that designation.)”

Eight of Pentacles – Today we use the three main meanings for Mr. Eight of Pentacles: (1) constant, steady, and always; (2) job and work; (3) increasingly and ‘more and more.’

Ten of Cups – You see the couple, the family, and the neighborhood in this picture. And those are the major Ten of Cups headline meanings.

In Tarot Verbatim™ it is one of three marriage cards, and each of those represent any kind and any size of group of people. Ten of Cups concentrates on good guys and good groups: it even means happiness, getting along, people you know like and trust: your community or their community. The well-adjusted people (but I hate that phrase). It translates ‘everyone’ too.

.

Ten of Cups is family, home life, family members, family reunion … and one big happy family. So it can be a good family relationship as well as a good marriage.

.

Ten of Cups is the neighborhood card, and one of the cards for single family home as real estate. The house, especially the house in a good neighborhood of course; and Six of Cups also means just that. It can be a building once in a while, as today when you have the inspector, and a job inspecting houses.

… .. ….. …          .

Here are three normal-everyday-life Tarot cards, nothing esoteric. Can you see Hermit as Mr. Rogers and Ten of Cups as the neighborhood? – and Eight of Pentacles as ‘that’s what he routinely does’?

.

Eight of Pentacles is work, and Ten of Cups is home, so you think of working at home. And Ten of Cups is happy, so you think ‘ Happy at work.’ Ten of Cups is everybody, or a group of people, or a family, so ‘ Everyone at work’ or ‘ Working for family.’ Ten of Cups is marriage, so ‘ Working on the marriage.’

.

There’s no threat or drama to the stories these three cards tell. Hermit is looking, and Eight of Pentacles is doing the same thing over and over, so the subject of their stories tend to be Ten of Cups, which is happy, prosperous, and normal. The End.

Tarot Readings for You for February 5, 2014 Wednesday©

Guidance     Adversity can be a shortcut to personal success.  Looking objectively at a painful situation, you assess your part of its cause in order to take charge via taking responsibility.  You decide to exit and do so cleanly.  Suddenly you are calm and things are under control when you break out or break up.  Finding a way to bypass all those difficulties is quite an achievement and so is understanding how to handle hostility without engaging in it.  Today we find parallels in achieving business success by changing course, achieving personal success by getting along with folks, and turning off the road in traffic to avoid some hazards.  It’s about looking ahead, it is!

 

Are YOU here for the first time? Come in!

People love this place! Our site is divided into four sections: Guidance, Tarot Readings, Learn Tarot by Observation, and Learn Tarot by Pictures.
If you just want your daily look ahead, Guidance and Tarot Readings are all you need. ‘Guidance’ (above) is a summary of what the cards are telling visitors to be aware of this day.

‘Group Tarot Cards Reading’ (just below this) is the actual word-for-word messages from the pictures of the four cards you see – to everyone. These readings are about you and the people around you.  They are about today and the days around it. So, go ahead and pick the sentences you feel are yours and decide whether to encourage or reject them for yourself.

Did you come here for your predictions? – You are done now – See you tomorrow. The family of commenters here would love for you to join in (the very last thing, at the bottom).

Reject one way and find another way to succeed.

Can see why they were against this and dropped it from the project.

Now,  Part Two,

Do you want to know a little, or a lot, about how this Tarot Verbatim™ thing works? If so,

*Go to Learn Tarot by Observing section below. This tells about the combined four pictures in the Tarot Readings – the pictures above here.  It explains how these four cards get together in your mind to make the messages.

*Go to Learn Tarot by Pictures.  It is what each of the four cards, by itself, has to say.  It shows you how that illustration makes that card’s meanings in today’s Spread. All the words of each Tarot card reading you see here are a phrase-by-phrase translation of the scene pictured on those cards: no filler, no psychic impressions, no spirit guide. Word-for-word Tarot Verbatim™.

You can put all this together and intuitively see yourself how Tarot Verbatim™ works.

This is a group reading, with no Questioner and no Question to limit what the cards say, so there’s more variety – even contradictions – and also the pronouns are more flexible. If it feels like it’s yours, and it says ‘he,’ and you’re a ‘she,’ feel free to adopt it anyway.

 

Eight of Cups
Hermit – Three of Swords – Chariot

 

LEARN TAROT BY OBSERVING

Hermit and Chariot are mature and responsible men or individuals who accomplish a purpose by their own actions; both are out on the road. Hermit emphasizes understanding, observing, looking for, helping and calmness. Chariot emphasizes success, achievement, drive, taking responsibility, getting the project done, having things under control; he is also a vehicle of any kind. Today, in the company of Hermit, a physician, he is an ambulance and the two of them together are paramedics.

Three of Swords and Eight of Cups involve leaving. Three of Swords is animosity in a breakup, is rejecting (anything), is nastiness or hostility both to (anything) and as a personality trait. It can also be a storm or damage or a heart attack/stroke.

Eight of Cups is to detour abruptly from one (anything) to another (anything) – from a direction of any kind, even from an inclination. It also involves timing, as in aborted or premature or disrupted or intercepted anythings. Some of its applications are not expected (which is to be expected, since it means ‘unexpected’). Phrases like ‘when he doesn’t get his way’ and ‘got him nowhere’ are examples of the timing meanings. So is ‘overnight’ when it refers to an overnight success or whatever. Other phrases you would not think of are ‘another way,’ ‘fell short of,’ and ‘dropped it.’

Hermit, Chariot and Eight of Cups are all on the road. Hermit is looking where he is going and knows; Chariot arrives successfully; Eight of Cups makes an unscheduled turn.

So we have an echo of the thought of it being wise to leave. That is our main message in today’s sentences.

Hermit Mature enough to be offering practical help to travelers in distress, confident enough to be on the road at night, Hermit emphasizes understanding, observing, looking for, knowing, patience and calmness. He is a healer or doctor, a friend, and a friend who helps. He is also an old man (or sometimes older man). We aren’t using his other meanings today.

 

Three of Swords Separations, divorce, breaking up, animosity and hostility, being against, opposing, being nasty or snarly or very edgy – any kind of rejection, including rejecting one choice for another. Three of swords also refers to heart trouble, surgery, storm and heartache. One of those Rider Waite Tarot cards whose meanings you can guess: A heart with knives piercing it, and gray clouds and rain behind it.

 

Chariot You can guess its vehicle meanings. This brings up ‘drive’ which suggests ambition. That is further extended to success and accomplishment: This is the decision-maker whose project succeeds. Not obvious is that Chariot succeeds deliberately through strategy. This is an esoteric Rider Waite Tarot citizen: The reversed colors on the sphinxes indicate their different natures, and Chariot (with his magic wand) is getting them going in the same direction, the direction he wills them to.

 

Eight of Cups takes a quick right turn here because the terrain forces him to. He too is on the road, but he gets off of it at least for now and heads in a different direction. The end of one thing begins another or vice versa. Continues on despite a disruption. It’s just another phase, but I’m out of here.

Our Daily Spread for January 19, 2012©

Advice  There’s a level of life experience, and there’s a level of spiritual expertise, that makes trouble avoid you.   Your instincts direct you away from the charming and the reckless as the muggers’ instincts direct them away from you.   When you have the perfect comeback, no one makes the remark any more.   When you have handled and overcome the conflict and chaos within your personality, the conflict and chaos without subside remarkably.

 

 

 

 

Is this the first time you come here? Well … what to do:

 *Go to Advice (above ) which is a summary of the Messages. (Advice is everyone’s favorite part.)

*Go to Group Analytical Tarot Reading below.  One or more of those sentences has something to say to you.  Intuitively pick those out and decide whether to encourage or suppress them.  They are about you and the people around you.  They are about today and the days around it.  (It is a group message like a horoscope,  except Tarot isn’t based on someone else’s birth data,  so it can be specific,  accurate,  detailed and direct.  Our experiment here is  “How much more accurate is it?”)

Did you come here for your predictions? –  You are done now –  See you tomorrow.

Without a question to focus the answer,  four cards can mean contradictory things,  especially when the Spread has a card that negates other cards.  Without a question also the pronouns in a group reading are more flexible,  especially in some of these Rider Waite Tarot spreads.  When a pronoun is in parentheses,  feel very free to substitute.  The question in a  ‘real’  individual reading supplies at least half the information!

GROUP ANALYTICAL TAROT READING

 

 

Control my Wild Impulses (Sun + Strength)

 

When I am wise enough to supervise my reckless uninhibited impulses and nip them in the bud …

 

I did not look where I was going, and someone put a stop to my fun.

 

Wisdom comes swiftly on the heels of risk-taking as I get things under control.

 

Seeing things as they are prevents some fun but I do have a grip.

 

Looking for a quick way out or I will have to put an end to the playboy’s fun.

 

Can see this isn’t going to be a fun outing, and I put a lid on it.

 

Leaving this party early, I can see, is a preventive measure.

 

Seeking to control my own wild impulses before I take a detour.

 

Learning to quit being impulsive and take charge of the situation.

 

 

Just Do It Yourself (Sun + Strength)

 

 

The way you learn to do it is: One day you just do it.

 

Found another way, just did it myself on the spur of the moment.

 

I can see how it is done so I jump the gun and just do it without forethought.

 

Premature child goes to physician but mother does the hand-on care.

 

The doctor is out so mother treats the child.

 

Mother does it herself, no pediatrician (baby doctor) for her.

 

 

Mama Doesn’t Allow the Kid (Sun + Strength)

 

 

Mama don’t allow the kid to go out lookin’ at night.

 

She knows instinctively how to make the child quit doing that.

 

I lay my hands on the brat when he ducks out and I go out hunting for him.

 

She puts an end to his childish escapade as he looks for a quick way out.

 

She makes it very clear there will be no children.

 

What she does to prevent children has failed: Examining the situation.

 

No more babies; she goes to the doctor to prevent that.

 

 

Looking/Searching for a Way (Hermit + Eight of Cups)

 

 

I look for ways to prevent self-control and be spontaneous.

 

Night search for a brat who ran away before mama could discipline him.

 

Mugger takes one look at (her) and goes the other way: She was going to enjoy meeting up with him!

 

Search for someone who ran off the road driving recklessly, to fix him/her up.

 

Searching for a way she can have children; she miscarries.

 

Other

 

Preventive medical care isn’t happening for babies

 

The doctor dropped everything to handle this baby.

 

Take one look at this maverick handle him by walking the other way.

 

Now, Part Two,

Do you want to know a little, or a lot, about how this Tarot Verbatim ™ thing works? If so,

 *Go to Learn Tarot by Observing section below. This tells about the combined four pictures in the Daily Spread –  the pictures above here.  It explains how these four cards get together in your mind to make the message.

 *Go to Learn Tarot by the Pictures.  It is what each of the four cards,  by itself,  has to say.  It shows you how that illustration makes that card’s meanings in this Spread.

 You can put all this together and intuitively see yourself how Tarot Verbatim ™ works.

 Say hello back!  Comment!  I spend two hours a day or more writing these to you.  Remember to share your experience about our experiment here if you have words for it.  Read others’ comments.

 And you can call me at the 800 99 3 6 9 12 number from Eastern 1 p. m. to Eastern 1 a. m. at least, every day.  (3-6-9-12 like a clock.  It makes a pattern on the phone as well –  easy to remember.)   I analyze business situations and personal relationships accurately from both Tarot and practical perspectives.  You enjoy it.  (Testimonials are on the web site.  https://EmilysInsight.com.)

 

Hermit

Sun – Strength – Eight of Cups

 

 

 

 

LEARN TAROT BY OBSERVING

 

 

Sun and Eight of Cups are both leaving abruptly – very different stories (Sun, impulsively ducks out of the house for a little fun, recklessly; Eight of Cups, a detour or change of direction on a trip, probably for good reason or cause).

 

Next thing is that in both Strength and Eight of Cups something isn’t going to happen. In Strength, it’s deliberate prevention; in Eight of Cups it’s a detour.

 

Next is all the cards are outdoors and three of the four are traveling. Sun is just in the back yard; Eight of Cups is on a pilgrimage; Hermit is out on the road looking for travelers in distress.

 

Both Strength and Hermit have spiritual overtones and are people of self-control and considerable life experience. Strength overcomes (including his/her own weaknesses) and Hermit is the celibate and patient monk. (Make that ‘monogamous man’ these days.)

 

Sun is a child and Strength is discipline. Hermit is on the road and Eight of Cups is a going out of his way. Sun is a dumb kid and Hermit is a wise old man.

 

 

LEARN TAROT BY THE PICTURES

 

 

Sun Baby boy has snuck out of the house, against the rules, and is having a great time nude on the wicked pony. Whee, this is fun: He even carries a huge banner in his left little hand. He is obviously oblivious to what the pony is about to do; he is having fun in the sun like a playboy who never heard of child support. Color him a drunken driver or bungee cord jumper.

 

Reckless, spontaneous, uninhibited, impulsive, brat, child, childish, childish escapade, playboy, leave the house, outing, fun, sunshine, daytime, vacation.

 

Strength An experienced combatant knows the moves instinctively and is confident about handling yet another martial exercise. This confidence telegraphs itself to would-be attackers. The same is true of social conflict and spiritual conflict. Bullies of any level or department of existence have a sense of smell and they are cowards. They are often friendly to people or entities they even suspect can handle them. Professional courtesy.

 

Strength exemplifies the concept that when you know how to handle it, it does not present itself. When you have the perfect comeback, no one says that to you anymore, drat it.

 

 

Eight of Cups To go the other way. To detour or go another way. To leave early, drop out, quit, change the way, depart from the way (run off the road), to change direction. It’s over before it begins. Abandon or abandoned.

 

Illustration is a traveler who is forced by the terrain to change direction.

 

Hermit Out looking, hunting or searching for. Take a look. Looking where you are going. Travel, night travel. Seeing things as they are. You can see. Seeking, learning, and wise or wisdom. A paramedic, physician, doctor or healer of any kind. To be on the path, be spiritual or be sincerely religious (any religion).

 

Illustration is a monk searching for people to give aid to at night. He carries a lantern which can stand for enlightenment.

Hermit and Star both are sincerity and warm feeling. Hermit and Eight of Cups both refer to a journey walking – and one is a pilgrim and one is a monk. We begin with Eight of Cups which in Rider Waite commonly means: avoid, abruptly, change, quit, drop everything and immediately, suddenly. Then we have the Hermit, whose common meanings are to look, to seek, to find, to observe, sincerely, knows, the fact, honest. Then the Eight of Pentacles which is about work and what you are doing. We close with Star which is about talk, confessing love, praise, being happy and healthy, and even a performer.

The comment for your six months says things go well at work, things change for the better, and love is sincere. I’ll drink to that … after Lent.

 

Meanings and Illustrations:

Eight of Cups: Common phrases for this guy are: avoid, abruptly, change, quit, drop everything and immediately, suddenly. The picture shows what is supposed to be a pilgrim turning a forced corner in his course.

Hermit: He too is out at night walking on a journey. Hermit usually means to look, to seek, to find, to observe, sincerely, knows, the fact, honest.

Eight of Pentacles: Here’s the guy crafting one item after another. He is busy working at his bench. This is often about a steady effort and calls up phrases involving the word ‘keep’ and ‘keeping.’

Star: Health, happiness, to talk, to confess love, feeling good. The illustration shows a nude figure pouring something into a bathing pond.
