The keeper of hidden knowledge and mysteries. Her wisdom is feminine, intuitive, creative and spiritual, but not always rational.

The Hermit abandons the world and it's pleasures in favour of solitude. Only through the reading can we determin why the Hermit does this.

Or does the Hermit choose solitude in order to voyage within himself; searching for enlightenment, wisdom and divinity? - 10 - Wheel of Fortune10 - Wheel of Fortune:
As the Wheel turns it reacts to the cards that surround it.

The Sun symbolizes enlightenment from within, saving humanity from its animal nature. It denotes wealth, gain and glory; contentment and a good marital relationship. One must watch the surrounding cards however, for The Sun can also symbolize arrogance, vanity and a tendancy to be ostentatious. - 20 - Judgement20 - Judgement:
