You are The High Priestess

Science, Wisdom, Knowledge, Education.

The High Priestess is the card of knowledge, instinctual, supernatural, secret knowledge. She holds scrolls of arcane information that she might, or might not reveal to you. The moon crown on her head as well as the crescent by her foot indicates her willingness to illuminate what you otherwise might not see, reveal the secrets you need to know. The High Priestess is also associated with the moon however and can also indicate change or fluxuation, particularily when it comes to your moods.

In a way, I think that internet quizzes generally function a lot like the Tarot, only inverted: given how much subjective information goes into the selection process, as opposed to the interpretation of the end result, the outcomes tend to be a kind of self-fulfilling prophecy ....

Can we both be the High Priestess? Cause that's what I came out as. Twice, even though I gave slightly different answers. Maybe it's stuck on High Priestess.

The High Priestess has many faces, she intones sonorously ....

P.S. - I just found The Dissertation Mug in one of the boxes ... makes it feel more like home already.

I'm so glad you have The Dissertation Mug. May it fuel many wonderful essays for you.

Now, all I need is a working Novel Mug. I suspect every novel has its own, though. What would be good for "The Magic Magnifying Mirror of the Mermaid Queen"? Not dragonflies, that's for sure. Something harder-edged. I've got a NYC subway lines map. I should try that one. (wanders off muttering to herself. . . .)

You are The Hermit

Prudence, Caution, Deliberation.

The Hermit points to all things hidden, such as knowledge and inspiration,hidden enemies. The illumination is from within, and retirement from participation in current events.

The Hermit is a card of introspection, analysis and, well, virginity. You do not desire to socialize; the card indicates, instead, a desire for peace and solitude. You prefer to take the time to think, organize, ruminate, take stock. There may be feelings of frustration and discontent but these feelings eventually lead to enlightenment, illumination, clarity.

The Hermit represents a wise, inspirational person, friend, teacher, therapist. This a person who can shine a light on things that were previously mysterious and confusing.

...I wonder if they have all the arcana up there, or if they only put the anthropomorphic ones. I mean, who gets to be the tower? (I guess I'm going back to try to plug in the right results for that one...)

Apparently, Peg Kerr does. No, seriously.

He. Me neither.

You are The Emperor

Stability, power, protection, realization; a great person.

The Emperor is the great authority figure of the Tarot, so it represents
fathers, father-figures and employers. There is a lot of aggression and violence
too.

The Emperor naturally follows the Empress. Like an infant, he is filled with enthuiasm, energy, aggression. He is direct, guileless and all too often irresistible. Unfortunately, like a baby he can also be a tyrant. Impatient, demanding, controlling. In the best of circumstances, he signifies the leader that everyone wants to follow, sitting on a throne that indicates the solid foundation of an Empire he created, loves and rules with intelligence and enthusiasm. But that throne can also be a trap, a responsibility that has the Emperor feeling restless, bored and discontent.

I got Judgement, but I maintain that my cards are still the Emperor and the Hierophant. Hem. :)
