Ahliyah --
I can't admit to being an expert about Tarot cards, but I ended up looking up "Heirophant" in the dictionary. What I found was that a heirophant's job is to bring congregants into the presence of holiness. This is in sharp contrast to what seems to be generally associated with the card itself, which seems to be mostly conformity and order.
As with most Tarot readings, I imagine that these esoteric definitions are merely a starting point -- it is the reader's subconscious insight that gives the cards a true meaning. For instance, if I were to see a heirophant in a daily reflection, I would see it as a cue to maybe pursue something spiritual, or to try to bring myself into the presence of something sacred. To me, this would not necessarily be going to church or praying, but perhaps to take a few minutes to remember lost loved ones, or maybe watch a sunset and marvel at the universe. Those activities reflect something genuine and wholesome to me, much like a heirophant would want to subject a congregation to something sacred and inspiring.
So, in a manner of speaking, I see the heirophant as representing humility before the things that we cannot control. But, only because that is what I see as being spiritual and holy, which I think is something easily applicable to anyone.
Keep throwing those cards down! I assure you, the universe is unfolding exactly as it should.
