Conditions of The Hermit
Positively
- Wisdom. You are very intelligent and observant, you love to acquire new knowledge and understand what is happening around you. As a result, over time, your life becomes filled with deep meaning and wisdom. You know how to listen to people, and in adulthood, people around you often turn to you for advice or an independent assessment of their actions.
- Knowledge and experience. You love to learn and apply the knowledge you acquire in practice. At the same time, you usually choose a direction and improve it for many years. In this process you never perceive information superficially; it is important for you to get to the essence itself. You often have a difficult life path, and in the course of life you acquire many valuable and varied experiences. One of your main tasks is to pass on the accumulated knowledge and experience to the next generation.
- Privacy. Even while doing everyday things, it is important that you focus on your inner world from time to time. It is from yourself that you draw strength for further achievements. However, this does not mean that you withdraw from the rest of life and are ready to be alone forever.
- Reasonableness and attention. You can easily be called the most careful and reasonable. You know how to put emotions aside, look at the situation from the outside, slowly evaluate all circumstances and make an overall decision. It must be said that in business you are also calm and accurate.
- Creative talent. You have a number of undoubted creative talents. You are an excellent speaker, have an excellent written language, can compare facts and make predictions. You can achieve significant success in any humanities discipline.
- Asceticism and spiritual strength. For you, material achievements do not play a special role, rather you are interested in spiritual growth and sometimes public recognition; You live modestly and even ascetically and are not driven by fashion and public opinion. You have your own guidelines and a certain personal and spiritual path that you follow throughout your life.
Negatively
- Closing. You can become so immersed in your inner world that you forget how to contact others. As you improve in your chosen direction, you stop perceiving the outside world, family and daily problems. Over time, this lifestyle plunges you into apathy, from which it is difficult for you to get out on your own.
- Fear of loneliness. In the negative, you are terrified of being left alone. Perhaps after a serious mistake or out of fear of appearing stupid. As a result, you surround yourself with dubious friends, totally inappropriate for your level. Gradually you "slip" into a thoughtless existence, losing yourself completely.
- Unclaimed wisdom. As you grow older, you accumulate knowledge, experience and wisdom. And at some point you have to start transferring what you have accumulated to everyone. If this does not happen and you do not find students or followers, the excess energy will gradually destroy your essence.
- Stubbornness and fussiness. You are often quite arrogant and consider yourself smarter than anyone else. If someone wants to tell you some alternative point of view, probably nothing will work. Most likely, you will listen to him and ask a lot of questions, trying to find fault and find a weakness. But even if he answers correctly, you are unlikely to change your point of view.
- Lack of physical development. In the pursuit of knowledge and spiritual development, you can completely forget about your body and health. Excessive mental stress and a weak body lead to illness and psychological disorders.
