As we step into 2025, a year whose numerology reduces to 9 (2+0+2+5 = 9), we are invited to embody the energy of Tarot’s Hermit archetype. The Hermit, represented by the ninth key in the Tarot, symbolizes introspection, wisdom, and guidance. This archetype holds a lantern aloft, lighting the way not just for themselves but for others to follow, embodying the essence of mentorship and legacy.



     The Hermit’s light is not about dazzling displays but about quiet illumination—a beacon that helps others discover their inner truths/essence. This year calls for reflection on how we can share our wisdom and experiences to benefit others. Whether mentoring those that follow, offering guidance in our communities, or simply embodying a sense of presence, we are reminded of the Hermit’s role as a sage: the one who leads by inspiring others to uncover their greatness.


     The Tao Te Ching beautifully captures this concept of leadership and presence: “A good leader does nothing, yet nothing gets undone.” The Hermit’s power lies not in overt action but in being. Their stillness creates space for others to act, think, and grow. In 2025, consider how your presence might quietly influence and empower others—whether it’s a kind word, a thoughtful conversation, or simply being a steady and supportive figure in someone’s life.


     A significant aspect of the Hermit’s legacy is the act of giving back and training the next generation. Sharing your knowledge and helping others find their path ensures that your wisdom lives on and multiplies. Think of teachers, mentors, and visionaries whose quiet work leaves indelible marks on those they inspire. They do not seek the spotlight but instead focus on nurturing potential in others, creating ripples that extend far beyond their immediate reach.


     In the context of 2025, this might mean embracing mentorship opportunities, building relationships based on shared learning, or dedicating time to cultivating meaningful connections. It is a year to reflect on the legacies we are building and the ways we can uplift those around us.


     Ultimately, the Hermit’s journey reminds us of the profound impact of guiding others to find their inner light. By embodying wisdom, presence, and generosity, we illuminate the path—not by leading the way but by inspiring others to discover and trust their unique brilliance. Let 2025 be a year of sage-like influence, quiet empowerment, and enduring legacy.
