Question

How could i know who protects me spiritually?

Answer

You won't find it by looking for a protector's name — the cards put protection in what actually shows up on the record, not in a title or a figure. Three cards, drawn on your question:

SeatCard
PastFive of Pentacles, upright
PresentFive of Swords, upright
FutureThe Hierophant, reversed

Two Fives in three seats — the gap is the hinge of this whole reading, and it sits in the material and the visible, not in the invisible.

The past seat, Five of Pentacles, says the protection you already received was unglamorous: shelter, food, a hand, a trade, someone letting you in when you were outside. It doesn't name who. It tells you the category — concrete help, from a person or a routine, at the coldest point.

The present seat, Five of Swords, is a won fight that cost something. The protection working on you right now looks like a withdrawal, and it will read as losing to you at first. Five of Swords can't tell you whether that trade was right; it only says the scene you're standing in was already charging you.

The future seat, The Hierophant reversed, is the clearest answer to your question. Whatever comes next does not arrive through an institution — not a church, not a lineage, not a teacher you were told to obey, not a ritual done correctly. Reversed Hierophant is protection from outside the usual structure: someone unconventional, or a practice you built yourself that nobody handed you.

So: if the record of your hardest stretch actually has a person or a routine in it, that is your protector, and it will show up again at the next low point. If that record is empty — nobody, nothing, only your own decision to walk out — then the reversed Hierophant says stop expecting the next one to arrive sanctioned, and start looking at the unglamorous, unofficial people already in your week.

One step, tonight or tomorrow, on your own: pick the last time it got genuinely bad, write the date, then list who or what was physically there that week and who was not. That list is the thing the cards cannot hand you, and it is also the only honest way to answer "who."
