Meaning

The High Priestess resides in a state of divine femininity. The pomegranates which surround her signify abundance and fertility, and her lunar-lit crown represents feminine mysteries.

The High Priestess calls you to tune in to your Divine Feminine and all things associated with Her. Be led by your heightened intuition and lean in to your ability to access the subconscious.

Visual Description

A seated woman with long white hair sits cross-legged between two classical pillars, wearing a dark draped dress and a horned headdress topped by a golden disk. Above her are five moon phases across a star-speckled green sky, and trailing vines and pomegranates hang from the top and sit split open at her feet. Behind her a rolling green background is patterned with many watchful eyes, and she wears a small cross pendant while forming a hand-shape at her lap.
