Hand-Painted Stoneware Tarot Card Ornament: The Hermit
This hand-painted stoneware ornament features The Hermit, the ninth Major Arcana card in traditional Tarot decks, hand painted in full color on white stoneware clay. Each ornament is fired with either transparent crackle glaze (for a glossy surface) or raw (for a velvety matte texture) and tied with a ribbon for hanging. If you have a preference regarding surface finish or ribbon color, please let us know and we will do our best to accommodate if inventory allows. Each ornament measures approximately 2 1/4" wide by 3 3/4" tall. Please note that colors may vary slightly from ornament to ornament, and the item pictured in the listing photo may not be the exact ornament you receive.
The Hermit is the tarot card ruled by Virgo (August 23 - September 23).
The hermit stands in solitude on a mountain range. His head is bent, suggesting inward thought. In his left hand, which represents the subconscious mind, he holds a staff, which he uses for guidance and balance. In his right hand, which represents his conscious mind, he holds a lantern with a six-pointed star inside. The six-pointed star, or Seal of Solomon, is a sign attributed to the legendary King Solomon, who used it to tame demons and speak to animals. Comprised of interlocking upward and downward pointing triangles (the symbols for fire and water), the six-pointed star can also be seen as the reconciliation of apparent opposites — of the conscious and subconscious, or of the spiritual and material worlds.
• Meaning: Soul-searching, Introspection, Solitude, Meditation, Self-reflection
• Element: Earth
• Ruling planet: Mercury
