The Hierophant Card Description
The Hierophant is a card in the Tarot deck that represents wisdom, spiritual guidance and religious leaders. He sits between two pillars of a sacred temple as he guides us here on Earth with his scepter raised to heaven while pointing two fingers towards earth. Two followers kneel in front of him showing an image symbolic for humility and obedience under authority figures such as priests or teachers.
This means that the person is required to follow what others do and has a sense of belonging.

When the Hierophant appears in a reading, it might not be someone who is instructing you. Instead they could be stubborn and set in their ways making them unlikely to change their opinion on an issue.
When The Hierophant appears in a reading it is because you are soon faced with making decision. You can either choose to follow your own path or the traditional and conventional paths that may be given to you by society, such as entering into marriage for example.

If your relationship is progressing to the next level, The Hierophant suggests that you are likely to get married soon. If you’re single and manifest a new love interest in near future, they’ll be good for both of us emotionally and spiritually.

Reversed Hierophant Tarot Card Meanings
It is time to defy the norms of society and go with your gut if you want happiness.
If everyone else seems happy doing something, don’t bother following suit because it will not make you any happier. Your life could become more difficult as a result but that’s okay; do what makes YOU happy!
If you are dissatisfied with the people and circumstances that have been coming into your life, The Hierophant Card reversed tells us to stand up for yourself. You must make a choice between what’s right vs. doing what’s best for you–both consequences will be difficult but doable if we choose them bravely!
When the Hierophant is reversed, it may indicate that you are clinging desperately to old ways — at your own risk.
The Hierophant can symbolize potential issues with authority. For example, you need to be aware that if your behavior doesn’t reflect the values of society and those around you or goes against what is expected of you by others, it could cause problems for yourself. You will want to do what feels right but also make sure not get into any trouble along the way as this card may indicate a fear of getting caught breaking rules and laws in ways where there are negative consequences due to disobedience/law-breaking which adds additional anxiety on top more guilt from past offenses (if applicable). Lastly, The Hierophant suggests navigating through life’s challenges while being authentic with oneself at times requires walking a fine line between standing up for yourself without drawing too
Reversed Hierophant Meaning For Love
If you are single, everyone may keep asking “when are you getting married and having children?” However, maybe what works for you is an unconventional relationship or the desire for one. For example: if your partner wants to go against traditional gender roles and take on cooking duties while wearing a skirt (as was traditionally done by women), that can be something special about your marriage/partnership which others might not understand but cherish deeply.
If things such as open marriages interest you or even just going off of typical gendered behaviors like men doing more housework than their wives in exchange for those same wives earning higher salaries at work, this could represent The Hierophant reversed meaning these types of relationships will flourish well in love tar
On a less pleasant note, the Hierophant reversed can also mean there is a disconnect between you and your partner when it comes to values and expectations. Maybe one of you wants to get married before moving in together or having children while the other prefers not do anything until after living together for some time first.
In order to save your relationship, you must communicate clearly with an open mind and find ways to compromise so each person gets some of what they want.
Reversed Hierophant Meaning For Money
In a tarot reading about money, when the Hierophant appears reversed it indicates an authoritative figure who is strict and rigid. This person holds power over you and will not allow you to excel or advance unless they approve of your actions.
If you choose to stay in this job, it may be difficult but not impossible.
What if this person is not someone you like? This could mean that your advice-giver has a negative energy and it’s possible the outcome would be better without them.
What does being “stubborn” say about me as a person? Am I embodying this trait for another, such as in an argument with my significant other or friend where their stubbornness may lead to greater conflict than resolution of our differences on opinion?
