The second character that The Fool meets in his journey is the High Priestess, divine feminine energy represented by the number two. She’s has sacred knowledge to share with The Fool, teaching him about his subconscious mind and the importance of trusting intuition. While he’s off on his quest to make his dreams come true on the earthly plane, The High Priestess reminds The Fool about his spiritual aspects — he’s not just a body but also a soul.

A General Overview of the High Priestess

The High Priestess sits between two pillars; one black, one gray. Behind her is a tapestry of pomegranates and date palm trees. She’s adorned with an ornate headdress and wears a blue robe embellished with an equal-armed cross. In her hands, a scroll with the word “Tora,” and at her feet is a crescent moon.
