left hand a long staff. The Hermit, when drawn upright, represents self-discovery,
spiritual mastery, wisdom and introspection. When reversed, the card represents
loneliness, isolation and withdrawal from the world. The symbol consists of a circle,
within which is a flame placed above an arrow. This symbolizes awareness and self-
discovery on the path to enlightenment.

General Tarot Major Arcana description
The Tarot that first appeared in the 15th century in Europe as a deck of cards used in
various games. Although a full Tarot deck has 78 cards, the Major Arcana is made up of
only 22 of these (sometimes considered 21, The Fool being separate). The remaining 56
cards are referred to as the Minor Arcana. These Tarot cards used throughout much of
modern-day Europe to play conventional card games. In the 18th century, Tarot decks
began to be associated with divination, card reading and the occult. Although some
tarot enthusiasts claim the practice of card reading with tarot decks originates in ancient
cultures, there is no evidence of this. In English-speaking countries, where the card
games are less common, this is the primary association many make with tarot cards.
Cards used for divination and readings typically come from purposely designed packs.
Each of the Major Arcana cards has a series of meanings and implications, which differ
dependent upon whether they are drawn upright or reversed. Often, the meanings when
reversed are contradictory to those expressed when the card is drawn upright. The Major
Arcana also tell a story. The Fool, which is unnumbered, is the main character of the tale.
The 21 numbered cards that follow describe the encounters he has upon his journey. The
many experiences and trials are thought to be analogous to the experiences and trials of
one’s journey through life. The symbols in this category are entirely new, having been
constructed to represent the core images and themes of the original tarot illustrations.
They have been translated into a brand new symbolic language, unique to the
Symbolikon project.
