The High Priestess

General Meaning: Uniting Intelligence

Astrologically: Ruled by the Moon Cancer

Color: Blue

Musical Note: G sharp

Card Number: 2

Hebrew: Gimel means Camel

Health: holding emotions, cells of the body,
Pregnancy

The division between black and white is reflected in this card. One pillar has a B for Bava, the other pillar, a J for Java. Black and white, but no situation is completely black or white. This card encourages compromise, shown as gray for the color of wisdom, knowledge and experience. She sits on her throne and expresses balance, telepathy, the subconscious and femininity. The High Priestess wears a cross and holds the Tarot scrolls in her lap, again, trying to combine belief systems and methods of spiritual growth.

Her watery robe speaks to the emotional quest that we all experience at some point of our lives. This card can show up for a man or a woman. Are they growing as a psychic? I would encourage them to continue the quest both as a spiritual being and a psychic. Could pregnancy be in the near future?

Reversed: There is a challenge to the intent that this person has for their growth, be it in the Church or a daily intent to be a better person. I always ask if there has been a recent loose in the family. She will show up in reverse for a person that has recently left the church, such as a priest or nun or someone who is disillusioned by religion in general.
