The High Priestess represents inner knowledge and wisdom.
The card often shows a woman seated or
standing between two pillars, wearing a crescent Moon headdress and sometimes bearing a scroll. She is wise,
pure (virginal), and possesses "hidden knowledge".
Receptive and composed, she prefers seclusion to the
limelight, but she is willing to share her knowledge should the student seek it. When you get this card it
suggests that you already have the knowledge necessary to deal with what faces you. It may be buried deep
within you and may be difficult to call to the surface, but it is there.
You may be more receptive, intuitive, or
in touch with yourself at this time. The High Priestess is associated with the Moon (mystery, intuition,
compassion), the color blue and the musical note G#.
