The Hermit

The Voyager Tarot Hermit card

If you need time to yourself today, then by all means take time to be by yourself today. Being around other people can be trying sometimes. Why put yourself through it if you don’t have to? Withdraw. Retreat. Hide away. Sometimes this is the best way to be artistic, or brilliant by other means. It’s hard sometimes to hear your inner voices and follow your inner impulses when you have other people nagging at you, demanding your time and attention, or just talking too much around you or otherwise draining your energy. So if you need your own time, take your own time. Even if this means something as simple as eating lunch by yourself instead of with your colleagues, you are entitled to it.

THE HERMIT

The Voyager Tarot Hermit card

Crowds can be annoying. Do what you can to stay out of them today. All that energy, swirled together like some kind of bizarre soup mix that we can’t control the ingredients of. It’s not always bad, there are lots of good people with good energy, but there are inevitably those unpleasant people, so unaware of how their attitude, actions, mindsets, thought forms, and ideas are creating energetic pollution that comes at you from every angle, every direction. There you are absorbing it all. This is particularly uncomfortable for the highly sensitive people on the planet. It is no wonder we sometimes feel drained at the end of the day, just from going shopping or walking down the street. This would be a good day to take a break from all that. If you can avoid crowds, do so. If you can avoid people who you predict will drain your energy, it would be a good idea to avoid them. Enjoy your day in your own way. You don’t have to explain yourself, for sensitive people, it seems, have difficulty being understood except by other sensitive people. So if you need time to yourself, just take it. Make an excuse if you must, but have the alone time your spirit craves.
