Individual Card Meanings
The High Priestess
女祭司
The High Priestess sits between two pillars—one black, one white—representing the balance of opposites and the gateway to hidden knowledge.

This card represents deep intuition, the subconscious mind, and the power of patient observation. She counsels waiting and reflecting rather than acting impulsively.
