It can be tricky to work out the difference between these two types of inner voice

Seven Of Cups: The siren call of your desires.

The Hermit: Your wise inner voice.

So how do you tell the difference between the voice of desire and the voice of intuition?

The key is in the cards. Cups represent feelings. Seven cups suggest strong feelings. The Hermit meanwhile is cast against a clear calm sky and shines a light on his surroundings. The voice of intuition is a deep knowing not attached to any emotion. I feel this voice in my gut and interestingly enough The Hermit is sometimes associated with the digestive system.

As one of my favourite songs says, ‘You can’t always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you’ll find, you get what you need.’

That’s the Hermit’s job. To help you get what you need.
