"Presume not that I am the thing I was.”
― William Shakespeare
The High Priestess card is the 2nd card in the Major Arcana. It comes directly after the forward momentum of the Magician and before the abundant Empress. The High Priestess is a nocturnal and yin card. It represents all phases of the Moon on the card, representing night time and when we are at our must venerable. The High Priestess also represents our unconscious energy and our intuitive nature. This can also be a card of projection, and of other people imagining a version of you that may not be accurate.
