The High Priestess - Arcana Major II
The High Priestess - Arcana Major II
This is called The High Priestess because the woman who is drawn wears a pontifical tiara. She also represents Isis, an Egyptian divinity, Osiris wife.
The High Priestess represents wisdom, quality development by the sobriety of her costume.
It is a very positive card of the Tarot as well as the Yin element.
Basic significance:
The card in the right position symbolizes nature, pregnancy, knowledge, mother, perspicacity, wisdom...
The High Priestess in the reversed position symbolizes an immoderate and painful love, superficiality
This card also represents the hidden face of a man's life.
Let's take in example a woman wishing to know if her couple is solid.
We will pull four cards: on the left, The Lovers, on the right The High Priestess, at the top The Moon, below is The Tower.
The interpretation of these arcana would be as follows: this man has some troubles in his life and loves his wife (The Lovers) BUT he has a mistress (The High Priestess); the consulting one seems to be lied to herself because The Moon means that she knows that her husband is not faithful but refuses to admit it and The Tower represents the separation or the divorce.
In synthesis; which is the addition of the numbers of the four cards = 42; 4+2 = 6, The Lovers - once again - means that the consulting one will make the good choice in her life; probably divorce.
