Although you may be surrounded by and/or receiving advice from some very solid, and helpful, and savvy mentor(s), when the Hierophant appears reversed you may need to agree to disagree with at least one of them on at least one point. To thine own self be true. That is crucial now.

The Hierophant is very much about ‘doing the right thing.’ You may be struggling with an issue and are unsure about what is ‘right’ for you to do. Know that the answers are within you. Remember that the ‘right’ thing is what is right for you also.

Tarot Triumphs: I have kept the title Pope, however, rather than substitute the rather grandiose term Hierophant, which is sometimes used, or even High Priest. I feel that these take us too far away from the original meaning of a public figure of religious authority. The Pope is a figure we are all familiar with, even though he has limited impact in today’s world, compared to Renaissance Europe. As I have mentioned, the papal figures were too much for some Protestant regions, which replaced both cards with the classical deities Juno and Jupiter. I have retained the High Priestess, as the Grimaud pack does, rather than use versions such as the female pope or Papess, both odd and somewhat clumsy in English. Although female pope might match Pope as nomenclature, I believe that High Priestess represents her function better and is more in line with what was intended at the time, as we shall see shortly.
Tarot Triumphs: Divination is linked to time. We ask a question at a particular moment in time, and the answer that comes emerges from that moment. Even if the question has been mulled over for a long time, the act of asking it, of shuffling and laying out the cards, produces what is in effect a unique situation. The specific way the cards fall out for a Tarot reading is born out of this moment of asking the question. The chemistry between reader and querent is also in a particular balance at this time, and the way the interpretation is spoken and received is bound up with this relationship. In other words, a Tarot reading will never be exactly the same twice.

Reversed Cards: You will notice that not all seventy-eight cards are listed in this appendix. That is because not all the cards fit fully into a planetary alignment. The aces and pages encompass more than one zodiac sign. The knights, queens, and kings share more than one planet. This appendix is a guide to help you take your first steps to the planets and their sun signs.
