The Hermit
The Hermit represents withdrawal from the world into solitude, a meaningful quest for internal understanding and hidden knowledge. Despite the physical solitude, it symbolizes that we are never completely alone as we cannot escape from ourselves. When upright, it emphasizes solitude, exile, and the search for secretive knowledge. In its reversed position, it suggests reintegration into society, becoming more social, and sharing information.
