The Hierophant, drawn in our own style

commitment, tradition, values

The Hierophant as feelings

“I see something serious and lasting with you.”

The Hierophant as feelings is about seriousness. This person thinks of you in terms of commitment, values and doing things properly. The feeling is steady rather than wild: they see you as someone they could build a respected, lasting bond with.

What they may be feeling

The Hierophant reversed as feelings

“I want us on our own terms, not the ones we were handed.”

Reversed, the Hierophant shows tension with the rules. They may feel what they feel for you does not fit the life they were expected to have, or they may want the relationship on their own terms rather than the traditional script. Sometimes it is simply fear of commitment.

Depending on where you are

Someone new
They are taking you seriously, even if they move slowly and by the book.
In a relationship
They think about the long term: marriage, a home, traditions you would share.
After a breakup
They may be weighing what they owe to the relationship against what others expect of them.

Yes or no?

Leans yes. A steady yes when the question is about commitment; less so if you hoped for spontaneity.
