The High Priestess

The High Priestess sits at the threshold of the conscious and subconscious minds. She is the keeper of secrets, the guardian of the veil. In a reading, she is a sign to stop thinking and start feeling. We live in a noisy world that values logic and rapid explanations. The High Priestess demands silence. She asks you to trust the hunch that defies logic, the dream that lingers in the morning, the gut feeling you can't explain.

She represents the feminine principle of non-action. This doesn't mean doing nothing; it means waiting with active alertness. It's the difference between hunting for an answer and letting the answer come to you. You are being asked to look inward. The solution you seek isn't on Google or in a textbook; it's encoded in your own intuition.

Beware of superficiality when this card appears. Things are not what they seem. There are undercurrents and hidden agendas at play. You need to read between the lines. Trust your intuition over the facts presented to you, because the 'facts' are incomplete.
