The High Priestess is the ultimate feminine in the Tarot. We all have a masculine and feminine within each of us, so yes, this pertains to men as well as women the and the healing of your feeling nature.
Respected, comfortable and safe enough to be receptive, gives the High Priestess her strength. Rooted in a deep belief in who she is allows her to keep doubt and fear at bay. When you flow forth like water with an inner determination and strength, a knowing, that you’re moving in the right direction, that’s the High Priestess.
As the oracle, the High Priestess represents receiving messages from the Divine, being magnetic, allowing others to come to you. The Oracle of Delphi and temples around the world are designed specifically to soothe, relax and comfort so the inner voice can be heard. She has her own space, so creating a room or garden for meditation, rituals and communing are a great idea. A sacred space just for yourself with pillows, candles and a soft summer breeze feels just right.
For this reason, The High Priestess is known for secrecy, she values her sacred center as well as yours. Her words have power because they’re Divinely inspired. She doesn’t speak recklessly or thoughtlessly but measured and with accuracy and tact. She carries hidden knowledge and the secrets of the Universe and she knows that not everyone may be ready to hear them. She prefers silence and wisdom as compared to folly and foolishness.
And like the Oracle, in the movie The Matrix, she'll tell you what you need to hear not necessarily what you want or even what you expect.
Some Goddesses and Deities that align with the High Priestess are:
Pythia (Oracle of Delphi), Mother Mary (Love), Quan Yin (Compassion), Saraswati (Wisdom & Learning) and Vesta (Keeper of the Sacred Flame).
How can you access your High Priestess today? What Wisdom are you seeking? Would you like more knowledge and truth in your life?
Call on one of these entities in your quest for your own divinity and with some respect and patience you’ll surely be answered. Offer up your love and connect with all-that-is in a way that refreshes, soothes and comforts you. Allow yourself to be cherished and seen by that which made you, loves you and revere's you.
Much Love,
Rebecca
