The Hierophant

The 'Hierophant' spread reveals a person's life purpose, their mission and path to fulfillment. The full deck is used. The question is: what is my purpose in life, what is my fulfillment or mission? Card 1 in the center shows the essence of the purpose, surrounding it -- the paths of the heart and mind, keys to unlocking it, social realization, and the surrounding world.

Shuffle the full deck while focusing on the question of your purpose. Draw 7 cards. Card 1 is placed in the center -- your purpose. Card 5 at the top -- social realization. Cards 6 and 7 on the upper sides -- the surrounding world and conditions. Cards 2 and 3 on the lower sides -- path of the heart and path of the mind. Card 4 at the bottom -- keys to unlocking. Read from center outward: first the essence of purpose (1), then compare feelings (2) and reason (3), look at surrounding conditions (6, 7), evaluate social realization (5), and receive advice (4).

The spread is built as a mandala with the purpose card (1) at the center. Pay special attention to the contrast between the path of the heart (2) and the path of the mind (3) -- if they contradict each other, this points to an inner conflict regarding fulfillment. Cards 6 and 7 together describe the environment in which you will manifest -- if both are positive, conditions are favorable. Card 4 (keys) is the most practical: it gives specific advice about the nearest steps. You can supplement the spread by adding your own positions and continuing the dialogue with Tarot.
