The High Priestess
The High Priestess signifies deep intuition, inner wisdom, and hidden knowledge, urging you to listen inward rather than act. It highlights that some matters are secret or unseen and that outcomes may be unpredictable. The card advises solitude and reflection to access your inner voice and warns that this is not the time for decisive action. When reversed, it indicates blocked intuition, confused feelings, emotional rigidity, or the unveiling of unpleasant information that hampers clear decision-making.

Visual Description
A robed woman sits on a stone throne between two columns marked with the letters B and J.
