You are The Hierophant

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.

My Interests

Trains, Old Cars, Ships, History, Art, Architecture, Seismology, Geology.Centuries old are the mountains; Their foreheads wrinkled and rifted, Helios crowns by day, Pallid, serene by night ; From their bosoms uptossed The snows are driven and drifted Like Lithonus' beard Streaming, disheveled and white. Thunder and tempest of wind Their trumpets blow in the vastness ; Phantoms of mist and rain, Cloud and the shadow of cloud, Pass and repass by the gates Of their inaccessible fastness ; Ever unmoved they stand, Solemn, eternal and proud.-Henry Wadsworth LongfellowWhenever Richard Cory went down town, We people on the pavement looked at him: He was a gentleman from sole to crown, Clean favored, and imperially slim.And he was always quietly arrayed, And he was always human when he talked; But still he fluttered pulses when he said, "Good-morning," and he glittered when he walked.And he was rich, richer than a king— And admirably schooled in every grace: In fine, we thought that he was everything To make us wish that we were in his place.So on we worked, and waited for the light, And went without the meat, and cursed the bread; And Richard Cory, one calm summer night, Went home and put a bullet through his head.-Edwin Arlington Robinson"We know that a dream can be real, but who ever thought that reality could be a dream? We exist, of course, but how, in what way? As we believe, as flesh-and-blood human beings, or are we simply parts of someone's feverish, complicated nightmare?"Pacific Electric 1299 Business Car and 1624 "Juice Jack"Union Pacific's "Big Boy" and "Centennial" ..........

I'd like to meet:

Making an intellectual connection with someone can often be much more significant than making an emotional connection, although it might not feel that way at first. It's easy to get caught up in someone's world when you have strong chemistry, but once that flash is over, will there be a real foundation to stand on? You've got to concentrate on building a real relationship that is about two people and all their complexities. Attraction is nice, but it's not always long-lasting.
