The Elder

The Elder represents mentorship and lives experience.
Seek guidance or step into your role as a teacher. Reflection: What lessons are you ready to share?

Guidance, mentorship, and intergenerational connection are highlighted now. An Elder figure — literal or symbolic may offer insight that helps you see your situation with clearer eyes. Their presence encourages reflection, humility, and a willingness to learn. This card can also signal that you are becoming a guide yourself. Your lived experience contains teachings that can support someone else. Trust what you’ve learned; it has weight and worth.

Reversed

You may be resisting support, ignoring advice, or feeling disconnected from those who have wisdom to offer. This card reversed encourages you to soften, listen, and allow others to help shape your understanding. It may also reflect uncertainty about sharing your own knowledge. Remember, Elders are valued not for perfection but for honesty, resilience, and compassion. Your lessons matter.
