The Lantern Bearer

The Lantern Bearer

Major Arcana

Meaning

The Lantern Bearer appears when it’s time to step away from the noise and return to your inner light. This card is about conscious retreat — not isolation, but introspection. It invites you to turn inward, reflect deeply, and reconnect with your soul’s wisdom.

Whether you're seeking clarity, healing, or direction, the answers will not come from external validation. The Lantern Bearer walks alone, not out of loneliness, but because the path of truth is uniquely personal.

This card often arises during periods of transformation or transition — where solitude becomes sacred, and silence becomes revelation. Don't rush this phase. Give yourself permission to be with yourself.

In shadow, it may point to withdrawal, burnout, or feeling spiritually lost. But its guidance is gentle: slow down. Light your lantern. The wisdom you're looking for is already within you.
