Divine Wisdom. Manifestation. Explanation. Teaching.
All things relating to education, patience, help from superiors.The Hierophant is often considered to be a Guardian Angel.
The Hierophant's purpose is to bring the spiritual down to Earth. Where the High Priestess between her two pillars deals with realms beyond this Earth, the Hierophant (or High Priest) deals with worldly problems. He is well suited to do this because he strives to create harmony and peace in the midst of a crisis. The Hierophant's only problem is that he can be stubborn and hidebound. At his best, he is wise and soothing, at his worst, he is an unbending traditionalist.

I'm afraid there is [a ruling class in America]. I don't think it serves democracy well. . . . The ruling class is the rich who really command our industry, our commerce, our finance. And those people are able to so manipulate our democracy that they really control our democracy, I feel.
– Walter Cronkite, from The American Ruling Class (2005)
As you might guess, I'm not a big fan of television. My motto is "Turn off, tune out, and drop in." It's a play on the quote by the late Dr. Timothy Leary. I mean it to encourage people to turn off their televisions, tune out the advertisers and mass media, and get themselves involved with their neighbors in civic life.
Holy Bible, the Dune series, A Supposedly Fun Thing I Will Never Do Again, Flowers for Algernon, Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, On the Road, Infinite Jest, and whatever I'm currently reading.
