The Hierophant: Tradition, Guidance, and the Weight of Rules

Aug 21

The full video and workbook are in Story Explorers, in the Whiskey Grimoire under Tarot. You’re invited to join us there.

The Hierophant is the keeper of traditions, the one who says, “This is how it’s always been done.” He’s the mentor, the teacher, the priest who connects us to something larger than ourselves. But while he represents guidance and wisdom, he also carries the heavy weight of conformity.

Sometimes, the Hierophant reminds us of the power of learning from those who’ve walked the path before us. Other times, he’s the figure we push against when we need to carve our own way.

The question he asks us is simple:
Do you follow the path laid out… or do you rebel against it to find your truth?

👉 In Story Explorers, I take you deeper into the symbolism of the Hierophant — what his staff, crown, and disciples really mean, and how you can use this card as a mirror in your own journey.
