Hierophant
Featured Card of the Day – The Hierophant – New Babylonian Tarot by Roxana Paul
Artist: Roxana Paul
Website: http://www.roxanapaul.com
Artist Interpretation
A mature man in a red cassock walks into a temple through the high door decorated with the Babylonian bas-reliefs. He wears a horned cap and carries a cueniform, the simbol of knowledge, in his left hand, while he lift his right hand high in a blessing gesture. Two lamps decorated with bull heads on pedestals illuminate his path. The word Hierophant comes from the Greek word ‘hierophantes’ which means ‘one who shows or brings the light. The Hierophant is the archetype of education, organized religion and institutions. The Hierophant is also the guide between the world of humans and the spiritual world.
Nebo (sometimes known as Nabu), the son of Marduk, is the Babylonian god of wisdom, prophesy and writing. He was the personification of knowledge, and his name meant “the Announcer” which refers to his prophetic abilities. Nebo acted as a scribe to the gods, and he was in charge of the Tablets of Destiny. He also determined the destiny of each human according to the gods’ decisions, writing it on the tablets of the sacred record. Nebo had powers to prolong or cut human lives.
Card Meaning
The Hierophant is an official leader of the belief system and a ruler of the religious establishment. He also is a keeper of religious traditions and rituals, as well as a gateway to secret knowledge and ancient wisdom. The Hierophant impersonates an exoteric orthodox doctrine, rules, and rituals. Following procedures and ceremonies, the Hierophant keeps cultural traditions, maintains discipline, honors rituals, and introduces taboos.

Card of the Day – The Hierophant – Friday, January 19, 2018
The student becomes the teacher, and so on, and so on. The saying “You learn something new every day”, can definitely be applied here, but it goes way beyond that. This is a time where, if you are doing your homework, and allowing yourself to be open to learning new things, that you can set the groundwork for great things in your future. You have amassed a great deal of wisdom through your own experiences of recent years, and your are truly qualified to dispense some of that wisdom to those who come to you needing guidance. Think of guidance as a food chain, of sorts, with each individual who has made it further, offering wise counsel to those who still have so much to learn.
The Hierophant is representative of the hierarchy of society, including governments, schools, churches, and any other entities which encompass the “establishment”. Your beliefs may come into question today, or you may rely heavily upon them to help you assert yourself in a particular situation. Teacher, or student, there is much knowledge to be gained now.
See you here tomorrow!

Card of the Day – The Hierophant – Tuesday, December 19, 2017
The Hierophant is the wise sage and teacher of the Tarot, representing the structures in society which form the rules and guidelines by which we all strive to live. The cards never cease to amaze me, for today, and for most, it will be tomorrow, Saturn will be moving into its home sign of Capricorn through March 23, 2020. There is no greater teacher than Saturn, and this card suits him well.
As we wind up this last degree of Saturn in Sagittarius, where he will still be for most of the day, you may wish to look over the lessons which you have been taught, before proceeding. Remember, Saturn does reward those who have completed their tasks and learned their lessons in life, just like the teacher rewards the student. If the structures of your life have not been, or are not, in line with your life purpose, Saturn will work to tear them down, showing you where there is room for improvement. Heed the lessons; reap the rewards.

Featured Card of the Day – The Hierophant – 78 Tarot Astral ~ Tarot in Space
Artist: Chris Malidore
Website: http://www.cmalidore.weebly.com
Keywords
Teaching, guidance, playing by the rules
Artist Interpretation
Our Hierophant is a guardian and teacher of tradition, religion, and morality.
With his flipper firmly raised to the heavens, he instructs his two students of a spiritual path using the stars as a guide through belief and dogma. Ever the foundation stone, he allows his faithful followers comfort and guidance through the unknown using belief as an opportunity to best express oneself and to give them the courage to exist in a chaotic place.
Card Meaning
An alien, space penguin is the valued and respected captain of this ship, standing at the window to a huge expanse of space. His flipper is raised to the cosmos. He is a benefactor and guide. A teacher, introducing his crew to the mysteries of the universe beyond them. The figures before him are his crew, heads raised towards him, hanging off his every word. These are his eager students and workers, ready to explore and discover the endless chances before them.
When this card appears in a reading, it’s time to listen to the advice offered to you, and respect tradition – don’t give into that rebellious streak that tells you to go it alone. There will be time for that another day.
This is not a time to think outside the box, to buck tradition just to make a splash. Instead, you need to play by the rules, and color within the lines. Make no mistakes. Take the opportunity to learn from the advice and experience of those in authority, or you may regret it later!

Card of the Day – The Hierophant – Tuesday, September 5, 2017
I know I have mentioned in recent days that this is back-to-school week for many; tomorrow is probably the official day for most. But, parent, teacher, student, principal, guidance counselor, etc., everyone is doing their part to prepare for the beginning of the school year to be under way.
The Hierophant is representative of the teacher, and quite honestly, a very fitting card for today. You may not in any way be involved with a school at this time, but this does not mean The Hierophant does not apply to you. He is a mentor, a guide, a very learned individual, who teaches and advises others along their way. Today, you may find yourself in this role, perhaps providing some sage advice to a colleague, or even seeking some necessary guidance for yourself.

Card of the Day – The Hierophant – Tuesday, August 29, 2017
Playing by the rules appears to be the theme of the day. While not everyone does, it will be brought into sharp relief that the key to success with a particular matter will be to follow the guidelines previously set forth regarding a certain issue. Consider it to be a teachable moment. You may find yourself seeking the advice of an expert, or Googling your way to success, as you probe the internet for the necessary information needed to complete a task.
The Hierophant represents beliefs, religions, and those established structures which guide and govern our society. In other words, you can see this card play out for you in many ways; perhaps you find yourself filling out papers/forms which will aid you in your goals. Doing things right, and doing what is expected of you, will take you farther in the long run.
