I am one of those people. I love people, but if I had a choice, I would be alone. Especially if it meant roaming the mountain tops with a pack and a lantern... ooo gimme!<br /><br />I always thought of the hermit as taking some alone time to either ponder the deeper things or to sort out your life..<br /><br />Great Post :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30754098.post-75186968436394377812008-09-27T22:27:00.000-04:002008-09-27T22:27:00.000-04:00Absolutely, David.

No one would call me anti-social, but I do hold back a part of myself from family and friends.<BR/><BR/>I also look at The Hermit as expressing being one's own individual. The deeper part of ourselves that isn't influenced by the crowds and the masses. <BR/><BR/>Even though you might be interacting and socializing with a million people you still march to the beat of your own drum.David Alan Richardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09014523995370174379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30754098.post-53474793153028979542008-08-20T16:42:00.000-04:002008-08-20T16:42:00.000-04:00Blessed be.I just found your site when reading ano...Blessed be.<BR/>I just found your site when reading another blogger's page.

I used to call myself an Urban Hermit when I was still living in New York City. But now that I've moved to only six blocks from the beach, near Santa Barbara, CA I've dropped the "Urban." :-)<BR/><BR/>All kidding aside, this is a wonderful exploration of a very important and too often overlooked aspect of this card. <BR/><BR/>(A total aside: does writing come as easily to you as it appears to? This question from someone who struggles with writing anything, and admires your style, clarity and humor.)Roswilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15669275952943509399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30754098.post-7206540440598627302008-07-28T13:50:00.000-04:002008-07-28T13:50:00.000-04:00I agree.

The title for the hermit counterpart in the Osho Zen Tarot Deck is "Aloneness" and the LWB that comes along with it talks about the difference between loneliness and aloneness and that is what I have always associated the hermit with. :)Mansi Bhagdeohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15320419691056191866noreply@blogger.com
