The Meanings of these Tarot Cards

Past

What has already occurred; the past.

The Sun from the Vivid Waite Smith Tarot Deck

Card Meaning When Reversed

The same, in a lesser sense.

Card Description

A naked child mounted on a white horse displays a red banner. The sun shining above represents consciousness in the Spirit—with direct, as opposed to reflected, light. The archetype of humanity has become a little child beneath its rays—a child in the sense of simplicity, with innocence in the sense of wisdom. In that simplicity, he bears the seal of Nature and Art; in that innocence, he signifies the restored world. When the self-knowing spirit has dawned in the consciousness above the natural mind, that mind is renewed and directs the animal nature in a state of perfect conformity.

Present

What is occurring now; the present.

The Hermit from the Vivid Waite Smith Tarot Deck

Card Meaning When Upright

Prudence, caution; also and especially treason, hypocrisy, mischief, corruption.

Card Description

A star shines in the Hermit's lantern. This is a card of attainment, and to emphasize this idea the figure is seen holding up his beacon on a hill. The Hermit is not a wise man in search of truth and justice; nor is he particularly an example of experience. His beacon hints that "where I am, you also may be." (see John 14:3)

Mme. Le Marchand's Divinatory Meanings (When Upright)

signifies ardent love; eternal fidelity

Card Description
