 The
High Priestess
II – This
particular card refers to that which is hidden. Here
we see a reference to things going on that we do not
know until later. This card represents the unknown
and the unknown factors: things that are hidden or
happening behind the scenes. When something is going
on behind your back or the back of a client, this
card will show up. Generally it is an indication of
good things, but this is not always the case and the
rest of the reading would help to decipher this.
The
High Priestess can also denote spiritual help or guidance.
Since those entities tend to work behind the scenes,
the Priestess can represent them in a reading. It
is also possible that the client will not know all
that is hidden. Later, when the information is more
viable and credible it is presented to the client.
In the case of spiritual help, it may become obvious
at some point to the client, even if not by direct
means.
In
the reverse position she does mean the opposite. The
High Priestess in the reverse indicates everything
is known and out in the open. There is nothing here
the client does not know. This is a great card to
get if someone is looking to see where things are
in their life or in a relationship. If it is reverse,
then things are, as they appear to be. In some cases
this is good news.
In
meditation, she can open the channels of intuition.
She represents all that we do not know, nor can we
see. Therefore she is a good source to open those
channels, as well as gathering information that can
generally only be gained through the intuition or
our dreams. She is out link between the conscious
and the unconscious world. The High Priestess can
help to unlock those doors and penetrate the walls
that surround us here on the material plane where
we are spirits locked in mass. She represents the
view from the spirit side of matter. There is nothing
hidden from the High Priestess.
