Querent
The querent is the card that this user felt represented them or their situation best.
The Hermit
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)

Past
What has already occurred; the past.
Nine of Cups from the Vivid Waite Smith Tarot Deck
Card Meaning When Reversed
Truth, loyalty, liberty; good business.
A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings
Good business.
Card Description
A stout man has feasted to his heart's content. An abundant supply of wine is behind him, as if to show that the future is also assured. The picture offers the material side of assurance only: it does not reflect the spiritual.
Present
What is occurring now; the present.
The Moon from the Vivid Waite Smith Tarot Deck
Card Meaning When Reversed
Instability, changeability, silence, lesser degrees of deception and error.
A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings (When Upright)
The Moon. Some eighteenth-century cards shew the luminary on its waning side; in the debased edition of Etteilla, it is the moon at night in her plenitude, set in a heaven of stars; of recent years the moon is shewn on the side of her increase. In nearly all presentations she is shining brightly and shedding the moisture of fertilizing dew in great drops. Beneath there are two towers, between which a path winds to the verge of the horizon. Two dogs, or alternatively a wolf and dog, are baying at the moon, and in the foreground there is water, through which a crayfish moves towards the land.
Card Description
In this card the moon is waxing on what is called the side of mercy, to the right of the observer. It has sixteen chief and sixteen secondary rays. Drops of dew descend from above. Beneath are two towers, between which a path winds up to the horizon. A wolf and dog are baying at the moon, and in the foreground there is water, through which a crayfish moves toward the land. The card represents life of the imagination, apart from life of the spirit. The path between the towers is our path into the unknown. The dog and wolf are the fears of the natural mind in the presence of that mystery, when there is only reflected light to guide it.
Future
What has not yet occurred; the future.
Three of Cups from the Vivid Waite Smith Tarot Deck
Card Meaning When Reversed
Adventure, speed, achievement, end; excess in physical enjoyment; the pleasures of the senses.
A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings
Consolation, cure, end of the business.
Card Description
Ladies stand in a garden with cups held high, as if making a promise to one another.
