The High Priestess

Greetings, davidl. How are you, chook? From your previous posts about where you have lived and worked, I must assume that your bedouin great grandmama has passed on her wandering gene to you. I have always loved that word “bedouin” – so exotic.

This is my card. I have always associated myself with this card even before I was really into witchcraft and other practices. My current deck is the Golden Tarot which is beautiful. I started having visions about Jaguars and seeing one around me and with me and in my dreams and then I noticed that the priestess card in my new deck has a jaguar on it.

To find out your major arcana tarot number you add your year of birth to your month and day and keep reducing until you get to the number.

so for me 1971 + 6 + 23 = 2000
2 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 2

There’s a trick when it comes to the fool card. Major Arcana numbers are from 0 to 21 but no addition will give you zero so you move the fool to the other end and make it 22. so the valid major arcana numbers are 1 to 22.

So if somebody had a birthdate of 12/11/1970 that would be
12 + 11 + 1970 = 1993
1 + 9 + 9 + 3=22
this person would have their tarot number corresponding with the fool.

I knew my card was the high priestess way before I found this number association.

It’s interesting thinking about the polarity… i’ve had a tarot reader and a psychic tell me recently that I live in two worlds, I stand in both. I haven’t quite worked out what that means for me consciously yet but it resonates with the High Priestess symbology I have also been to hell and back in my life so can very much relate to the Persephone myth.

3 times a Cancer Babe,
That’s cool with the numerology.

As i mentioned what’s there is there, just about accessing it.
In numerology, everything around I & I is 5.
FIVE…..says travel & change, halfway between the physical & spiritual, always changing the Status Quo,
asking peeps to make exeptions for me, changing the rules for individual circumstances, change change change. Even change clothes 4 times a day. Just when i think i know myself…i change.
………….and a 3 planets in Saggo persona as well.
NB; High Priestess came up as i was peri -menses. Just read all the notes on that page. hahah.

There was a deck many moons ago called ‘Western Star Tarot’ & came with a map to place cards.
Another simple & lovely deck is ‘The Aquarian Tarot’ for beginners.
All instructions are included, Feline. And yes, one card a day or week…et voila, they will be good friends
& companions. The you call call on the energy at will by placing card of your choice on your ‘alter’.

EveryGirl needs an alter or sacred/special place she turns to with your magical items.
How to know if anything is Sacred?
Just say ‘This is Sacred’ & you deem it so & ps: don’t go to Tarot Readers, DIY. You CAN be objective.
Word has it that you don’t really get to understand the
Sacred Secrets until you reach 40, as the brain it is said is not mature enough to comprehend such esoterica.
True in my case. Once one had to search & send for knowledge, now it jumps out at you!
It’s raining, we love rain in this parched state of oz, alas no frogs to herald it here.
Alchemist could have much to add if she was around……..calling Angel & Alchemist, add YOUR piece.

I’ve had a wonderful psychic read the cards (and her crystal ball….she sees symbols) for me since in my twenties. Haven’t seen her in the past 4 years though. Had already scheduled a session in ‘05 when I broke it off with the Pisces a few days prior. Due to seeing her, she helped me hold my resolve when I might have weakened.

In the early 90’s I got the H.P. card and she said the goddess could lead me to the door but not push me through. Many of the attributes of the card that Mystic outlines were very true for me in that there was more to the picture of what was going on at the time. It took five years to unravel and meanwhile can’t tell you how many times I’d wish I’d understood what was going on.

I’ve never heard of that David. Maybe someone else?
