9
The ninth arcana is the Hermit. The theme of solitude and seeking: a path that is walked alone.
The resource side
Depth, independent thinking, the ability to be alone with oneself and reach one's own conclusions. In its resource state it brings the kind of wisdom others come to ask for.
The shadow side
Isolation: solitude stops being a resource and becomes a wall. Add to that coldness and dismissing other people's feelings as shallow.
