"The rules exist for a reason. But so does your gut."
Six quick picks first, then your reading
The hierophant sits upon a throne in regalia between two pillars, holding both hands up with a scepter in one hand and two faithful servants at their feet
Focus on studying and honoring the traditions you hold dear. Feel a bone deep knowledge of the things you care about-- don't be afraid to find a guru to guide your path (or learn more by guiding others)
You are stuck by your own pride or the rigid structures of your mind. Let your ego be humbled and remember to experiment and iterate even with what you feel you know best

The Hierophant for Libra in Self and Identity
The Harmonizer
Jupiter sits outside Libra's usual Venus register, so this one arrives as unfamiliar weather. Upright, this is happening out in the visible world, where other people can see it and respond to it.
When reading about yourself through a Libra lens, the Hierophant card says that you feel like you are a collection of versions that other people have seen in you, a thing that must stay balanced or it will tip into being unlikeable, and something you do not fully trust without external confirmation. This has either kept you from knowing what you actually like, or forced you to become very clear about who you are precisely by refusing to be a mirror anymore. You have been so focused on who you think you should be that you haven't checked in with who you actually are. The Libra blind spot in it is being the one who breaks the tie, names the problem, or asks for something first.
In practice that can look like something you cannot un-see about yourself, or a season ending. Whatever form it takes, it is happening in the visible world where other people can see it.
