Tarot Card Meditation: The Alien (The Hermit)


The Alien in the Starman Tarot corresponds to the Hermit in the traditional Rider-Waite-Smith deck. The Alien is someone who by choice becomes a stranger to this world. This gives them the space to contemplate the profound aspects of life.

Some people remove themselves from the world mentally by remaining detached. Or, they could choose to live a hermit-like lifestyle for many years.

It could also be that you take a break for a period of time to think things through on your own. Perhaps you stay off social media for a while or even limit day-to-day contact with family/friends outside of your household. Sometimes being quiet draws attention to yourself. People wonder what’s going on! 

Once you come back to the world you left—if you choose to come back—you’re different. Wiser. You look rested and at peace. People see how you’ve changed and want the peace of mind you have for themselves. You become the example.

If you need to retreat or take it easy today with as few distractions as possible, then go for it wholeheartedly. Sometimes we all need to take a break in order to return refreshed and renewed.

Have a beautiful day.
