The Hermit card in Tarot represents solitude, reflection, and inner guidance. An old man in a gray cloak stands alone on a snowy mountaintop. He holds up a lantern with a six-pointed star inside and leans on a long staff. This card is about stepping away from other people for a while so you can think for yourself.
