**********
The song Shadow of the Hierophant was written by Steve Hackett and Mike Rutherford and was first released by Steve Hackett in 1975. The theme revolves around the spiritual journey, interpreted according to the meaning of the tarot cards, performed by an acolyte in his quest for self-knowledge.
The eighth card is the Hierophant (or High Priest) of the Greater Arcanum. This letter is related to teachings, knowledge, elucidation and instruction. The lyrics, sung by Sally Oldfield, however reveal that the (conscious) sun was eclipsed by the moon (unconscious). In other words, the acolyte's thinking was overshadowed by his feeling.
The cover image from inside the album shows the small spheres (life experience) penetrating a large sphere (protagonist's mind) and on top of this great sphere a worn-looking man is accommodated and inert. The Hierophant, symbol of thought, is in the shadows as the title of the band attests. This is the negative side of the letter, which represents the acolyte's inflexibility, stubbornness, and inertia in changing. In this way the acolyte's journey comes to an end.
According to a critical interpretation, it is reasonable to think that acolytes tend to seek the truth through faith (feeling) over reason (thought). The album's conclusion, however, showed that faith alone does not lead to truth or self-knowledge. This path depends on balance. As long as the acolyte allows the sun (thought, consciousness, reality, reason) to be eclipsed by the moon (feeling, unconscious, dream, faith), he is bound to empty dreams ("Melt in the dream void from which he can never run" ) and lost in thought ("Lost in thought in search of vision"). Thus he will be farther and farther from the path of truth.
Hackett had convinced Genesis to rehearse "Shadow of the Hierophant" as a potential song for Foxtrot, but it fell through.
