In Tarot, the Hierophant card represents traditional values and is frequently associated with the religious or spiritual. The Hierophant's mission is to bring the spiritual down to earth. This Tarot card's main meaning is to provide unity in the midst of adversity. During a crisis, the Hierophant calms the situation and provides sound guidance. Twin pillars, a staff, a throne, a pope's triple crown, a hand raised in benediction, and two acolytes are the basic symbols of the Hierophant card.
In a Tarot reading, the upright Hierophant card represents a need to conform and societal approval on the one hand, and at other, generosity, forgiveness, compassion, obedience, and inspiration. This card indicates that you understand how to fix your situation, even though it is not simple.
In a Tarot reading, the reversed Hierophant card represents unconventionality and unorthodoxy, as well as fragility and frailty. Although others may object to your urge to shake things up, it may be necessary. It can also signify ultimate freedom if you're willing to defy convention and embrace a different way of being.
In a Tarot love reading, the Hierophant card represents strong commitment. If you're single, it could indicate that a new relationship filled with love and devotion is on the way. If you're in a relationship, it could suggest that you and your spouse agree on almost everything.
