Hierophant
Tarot poem No. 5 — Sky collection prompts
A sacred man or, Man-made
religion, exerting power, control
and yet there is light,
the gift of spirit,
a gentler touch
upon the heart.
What are you looking for?
When you consult
the cards, and I arrive,
What do you think or feel.
I am a strange fellow
yet represent tradition,
convention, ceremonies.
Is this what you desire to be freed from?
A search for meaning
within chaos, when there
is no meaning, just being,
simply living, and yet we
need ceremony in some form
even if it is simply a prayer
What do you wish to escape from?
The unknown, the moral influences
to keep us under control? Perhaps
the unintended, the unwanted
And yet these can be our
greatest gifts of wisdom unpicked
by me, the reader of such matters.
Why fight your deepest natures and ignore the teachers?
Thank you to the Sky Collection for all the ideas offered.
