Hierophant Tarot card holds a cross with three bars

HERE’S THE INTERESTING PART

Gripping a massive triple-barred staff shows absolute authority over conventional structures and rules. This figure demands strict conformity, suggesting you stop rebelling and just follow the established guidelines for once. It is the card equivalent of a very stern teacher telling you to tuck your shirt in and sit up straight. Absolute traditionalism has never looked so intensely intimidating.
