Edmonton Tarot: The Hermit (IX)
Interpretation: The Hermit card denotes solitude, introspection and soul-searching. The person who draws this card may be at a crossroads in a relationship or in life. It is time to re-evaluate and seek something more.
Image: The Riverdale Labyrinth is my favourite labyrinth in Edmonton. This portable Cretan labyrinth is set up in a local community centre four times a year, once in every season. The labyrinth is made of long strands of golden beads stitched down on a large base of blue and violet broadcloth. I never miss a chance to walk this labyrinth!

I hope to walk a labyrinth one day. It looks like a great way to do some walking meditation!
ReplyDeleteThat is not what I expected the Hermit card to be, but I like it. Crossroads need lots of thought.
ReplyDeleteI like the Hermit card, I can relate to this,
ReplyDeleteI'd probably get exactly that card...
ReplyDeleteIt's time for me to see if there are any labyrinths in KC!?
ReplyDeleteThat is all so very interesting, thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI just bought a deck of tarot not long ago, but haven't used them yet.
Now I want to make one.
ReplyDeleteGet in line, labyrinth. Get in line. (It's beautiful.)
A lovely idea to use strands of beads! Been wondering what to do with all those beads we got at Mardi Gras!
ReplyDeleteAlways wanted to walk a labyrinth~~you are fortunate to have one that comes you you!
ReplyDeleteI think *The Hermit* describes me to a *T* right at the moment....
XXOO~~

I love that image... So cool with the bead strand.
ReplyDeleteLove the labrynth!
ReplyDeleteThe Hermit = practically my "mascot".
ReplyDeleteSeems like there's a lot of we hermits around which is a nice feeling. To walk around a labyrinth in a sacred manner is such a gift to a hermit. Maybe someday I'll walk one in Edmontun.
ReplyDeletewhat a great idea the beads are.
ReplyDeletewow. that must have been a true labour of love!~
ReplyDeleteThe Labyrinth is beautiful! The Hermit card is not a bad thing, we all need a little introspection!
ReplyDeleteWow, very nice! I didn't know about this.
ReplyDeleteI'm such a hermit at times that you could have also just posted my pic :)
An indoor labyrinth---I can dig that! Especially this time of year.
ReplyDeleteI can think of a few times in my life when the Hermit card applied to me.
Sounds like this is my card right now Debra...
ReplyDeleteThat labyrinth is totally cool!! Love the Hermit card. I can relate on a few levels with that one.
ReplyDelete:)
ReplyDeleteI think the hermit card was made for me!
ReplyDeleteOh, this is neat. The only thing similar that I've walked through is a corn maze.
ReplyDeleteNice picture. I'm not sure if I told you I had contacted a woman who was teaching?/monitoring?/making available?/ labyrinth time in this area. She never contacted me back and I've lost her address. When the time is right I guess ...
ReplyDeleteI would love to walk this Labyrinth! I can relate to this card right now! Take Care ;o)
ReplyDeleteI wonder if they would put one in at the wrh..??
ReplyDeleteI am the Hermit. Especially in the winter.
