The card
A religious teacher sits between two pillars with one hand raised in blessing, two crossed keys at his feet and two followers kneeling before him. He stands for shared beliefs, ritual and the wisdom handed from one generation to the next. The card asks what you have learned from those who came before you, and which of their rules still feel true.
Upright meaning
Tradition, guidance, belonging.
Reversed meaning
Rebellion, an unorthodox path.
