I'm the tarot hermit. I suspect a lot of people might be -- all my answers were veering between literature and science. I am intrigued by the tarot, though predictably don't have any belief in the supernatural. But it was going to be instrumental in a short story, and I like the heritage, and the idea of different decks representing the same thing in different ways, and perhaps even the idea of a reading just as introspection.

Piers Anthony has several books obsessed with it, another aspect of him that I find quite pleasing, slightly worrying, and overwhelmed by others.

There was a choice of five decks: cat, chinese, dragon, fantastic and winged. I expected the dragon to be coolest and the cat people to be kinky, but of all the pictures I liked this old man the best.

You are The Hermit

Prudence, Caution, Deliberation.

The Hermit points to all things hidden, such as knowledge and inspiration,hidden enemies. The illumination is from within, and retirement from participation in current events.

The Hermit is a card of introspection, analysis and, well, virginity. You do not desire to socialize; the card indicates, instead, a desire for peace and solitude. You prefer to take the time to think, organize, ruminate, take stock. There may be feelings of frustration and discontent but these feelings eventually lead to enlightenment, illumination, clarity.

The Hermit represents a wise, inspirational person, friend, teacher, therapist. This a person who can shine a light on things that were previously mysterious and confusing.

You are The High Priestess


Science, Wisdom, Knowledge, Education.


The High Priestess is the card of knowledge, instinctual, supernatural, secret knowledge. She holds scrolls of arcane information that she might, or might not reveal to you. The moon crown on her head as well as the crescent by her foot indicates her willingness to illuminate what you otherwise might not see, reveal the secrets you need to know. The High Priestess is also associated with the moon however and can also indicate change or fluxuation, particularily when it comes to your moods.
