"In the story, the Heirophant represents an old wise man who gives hope to a 'fool' on how to move past the fear of losing everything." His brow furrowed a little again. "He tells this person, that they can give up what they are in fear of losing so that there is no longer any power in that fear, or they can acknowledge what they will still have should the fear come to pass. For memories stay as eternal things."

"As for the meaning, it's about bringing spirituality to worldly problems, and creating a peace in chaos. But it's important to watch how stubborn you are, how much you are clinging onto things." Reaching out with his free hand, he tapped the deck between them. "In this it is important to remember your last card, the hanging man."

Hopefully that spoke more to her than his guess-work of what it could mean to her did. Replacing the card, he let out a slow breath. "So far, I think the Tarot deck is letting us know this year is going to be one interesting ride." One of change and learning, and in some ways that was terrifying.
Lexi furrowed her brow right along with him this time. "This is a bit eerie if you ask me," she mumbled. She had to wonder if the wise old man was Mr. Ikenna, though. Perhaps he could help her on her path. Or something like that.

"I am afraid of losing everything though...but most of all my sanity," she mumbled. She couldn't very well let go of that, could she? Shaking her head slightly she repeated the same actions as before, only this time she simply drew the top card instead of cutting the deck.

The card that appeared when she flipped it was that of the Chariot. Still... made no sense to her. She looked to Sabel again as she set the card on the floor.
