II. THE HIGH PRIESTESS

The plum deer sits between two pillars, one black and one white, symbolizing the realms of yin and yang. The book under its front feet represents wisdom, while the curtain behind signifies endless esoteric knowledge and hidden information in the vast universe. The moon symbolizes inspiration. Many things are hidden behind, making the High Priestess one of the veil cards. She studies quietly and peacefully, continually developing on the spiritual path. Reversed, the High Priestess indicates instability and the chance for hidden information to be revealed.
