why fight it?

Belle, I did this only because I've always thought that tarot cards are pretty, but I never would have expected them to identify me as the very thing I've spent thirty years shunning.


You are The Hierophant


Divine Wisdom. Manifestation. Explanation. Teaching.


All things relating to education, patience, help from superiors.The Hierophant is often considered to be a Guardian Angel.


The Hierophant's purpose is to bring the spiritual down to Earth. Where the High Priestess between her two pillars deals with realms beyond this Earth, the Hierophant (or High Priest) deals with worldly problems. He is well suited to do this because he strives to create harmony and peace in the midst of a crisis. The Hierophant's only problem is that he can be stubborn and hidebound. At his best, he is wise and soothing, at his worst, he is an unbending traditionalist.

  3. Belle has really started a viral spread of this, hasn't she?

    I'm The Star, by the way.

  5. Last night, over on the bigassbelle blog, I was The Devil. This evening, the Perge Modo people tell me I'm The Empress. Admittedly, I'm not feeling like myself today.

  6. Belle,
    I flinch at the word "lapsed". I prefer to think of myself as "distracted".

    I did this after seeing it on Torn's blog. Surprisingly, I got the same result you did.

  8. Yeah, I have enough lingering internalized homophobia to really hate being told that I'm "The High Priestess"...all those wasted hours at lifting weights...

  9. Hierophant.
    Sounds just about right to me.

  10. I'm the Fool. Needless to say, I can vouch for the accuracy of this test.

  11. How many laps does a priest sit on before he's "lapsed?"

    I took the tarot test and then forgot the answer, but I didn't like it anyway.

  12. I'm the High Priestess, which obviously is completely accurate.

  13. Okay, this is a little strange. I gave it a shot, and I'm The Wheel Of Fortune.

    I once had a very wise man who read Tarrot say that "who you are" changes with the circumstances in your life.

    And The Wheel Of Fortune fits it *perfectly* right now.

    Weird
