Two cards

In my readings, the Pages are normally representations for young people.

Sometimes they are called the Princes or Princesses of the Deck, primarily because they are referring to those people or experiences that are brand new and usually lacking in the sometimes frustrating world experience that can inhibit one’s ability to be creative individuals. The Page of Wands in a reading means that you or the subject of the reading is full of courage as well as a sudden inclination toward either anger or love.

This card is symbolic of the fluctuating energies that flow through all of us, but especially when we are young. The age of this card, doesn’t so much refer to the physical age of a human being. When we have a new experience, we feel that like a neophyte or a beginner would. This means that for you something brand new is coming your way. There is extra enthusiasm involved. You can get excited about the prospect of new events. When the Page is transiting your life, you can expect changes and news in your favor.

I do feel the page is sensitive, funny, uninhibited, hyper intelligent. He indicates a forward thrust for transformation. Transformation is intuitive for you, all you have to do is tap into that energy and you will go far. Pay attention to the signs that the Universe provides for you at all times. Synchronicities are around you at this time, and if you give them their due attention you will find yourself following a road of fulfillment comparable to no other.

The Page of Wands tells you that you must know yourself. Identify the obstacles that stop you from experiencing all of the new adventures and beginnings that you have at your disposal. This young energy is telling you that it is time to gain liberation from the constraints of your every day monotony. Even if you are jumping into the unknown, you must allow yourself to experience this time from the perspective of an innocent. Of someone who is seeing the world for the first time. Life is a joyful thing, and it is time for you to realize that. There is a fiery desire that thrusts itself into you with the energy of the Page of Wands, and you must follow the river all the way to its end. Flow with the new change, flow with the new beginnings. Have faith in your instincts and enjoy yourself. This is a time to study, to reflect, to behave uninhibited in word and deed. You must even experience in being somewhat frank to friends, coworkers and loved ones because you need the experience of letting your breath run free. Say what you need to say. Don’t be hurtful, but if there is a part of you that resists expression, you must express it now so that you can feel the enlightened energy of the Page of Wands.

When the Page of Wands appears in a reading something unexpected will happen to you. This can be the presentation of a new job, or a phone call telling you about a possibility for some kind of future endeavor, or even a chance to travel. Using your good judgment and intuition is going to be your best helper in deciding what opportunity to follow and what to say no to.

Take note of the stressful situations that you find yourself in and then see what you can do to get out of them. Much of the time you will find that either you are not being confident enough or strong enough to vocalize your desires or you are allowing others to make decisions for you. If you are to be free and light and wish to embrace this creative energy, you must have nothing blocking you. You will have much success if you allow yourself to behave in an unhinged manner.

The Page of Wands in Love

The love of young lovers is the image that is evoked when the Page of Wands visits your romantic experience. This means that you are going to be soon blessed by an experience that will make you feel as though you have never experienced love before. This may not be a long lasting love, but it is a new love and one that should be given credit because it is going to pull you out of your overly ‘adult/responsible’ experience. If you are already in a relationship with someone who you love very much, this means that you are going to have a chance to find a new way to love one another where you can see each other in a whole new light, thus allowing you and your partner to connect to that younger energy. If you are in a relationship that is making you unhappy, the Page of Wands tells you that it is time to find your fulfillment elsewhere. There is a world of opportunity out there, and if you have done your best to make the situation better and it is not happening, then cut your losses and get out.

The Page of Wands in Health

Now is the time for you to connect to a whole new you, full of vibrant good health. The Page of Wands is telling you that you have allowed yourself to be too inactive and slothful. In order to push back the aged aches and pains that come with time, you must choose to perceive yourself as younger then you are so that you might find healing. This card will come up in matters relating to the heart and the lungs. So consider what you can do to strengthen your cardiovascular system.

The Page of Wands in Work and Wealth

New ventures are coming your way. This could mean a promotion for your job that is going to feel like an entirely new position or it will mean that a change in work is going to present itself. Either way there is going to be a brand new perspective that you will be able to attach to, that will make you feel young again in your place of work. Abundance and random gifts are on their way to you.

Reversed Meaning - Page of Wands

The Page of Wands coming up reversed for you indicates an energy of an experience with an uncomfortable or unhappy relationship with someone who is controlling and upsetting you. Your ability to want something else for yourself has been interrupted by indecisiveness and you do not feel capable of vocalizing yourself. You must face your fears and get out of this situation as fast as you can so that you can feel the Spring-like energy that the Page has to offer.

High Priestess Tarot Card Meaning

The high priestess is the ultimate symbol of balance and manifestation.

If you receive the High Priestess in your reading then the time has come for you to understand the balance necessary to get what you want out of life. She is the mystery of the mother, of the moon and of life. The High Priestess is a guiding card, telling you that right now you are on a path of enlightenment. It can represent multiple aspects of your life showing a true understanding of your own wants and needs. Now is the time to follow on your instincts and trust that internal feeling. You know you better than anyone else and that means that you also know what is best for you. It is okay to seek counsel or advice from others but make sure that their wants for you are not overshadowing what your own heart tells you.

The deeper meanings of the High Priestess card is strong as sits in between a black pillar (symbolic of the negative life force) and a white pillar (symbolic of positive life force) and balances the two. On her lap is the Torah which means ‘Divine Law,’ something that isn’t meant for all to see. When you receive the High Priestess, you can expect the question to be shrouded in a great mystery that can be attainable if you allow yourself to practice listening to your intuition. The High Priestess can be a great ally in discovery for she is connected with the moon (evidenced by the Moon Crown on her head) which is often shrouded in illusion and mystery making it difficult for us to see straight. Often times this card will come up when one is trying to understand a situation that is convoluted. You can ask the High Priestess for help and then practice listening for her advice.

Listening for spiritually intuitive advice allows for communication with your consciousness and the world of pure experience. One must find time to quiet the mind and have patience as well as trust that the process will help you and then the truth will come over you like a sun rising over the horizon. This may take some time to perfect, as it is a practice like anything else, but the High Priestess is the manifestation of the desires of the Magician. She is the connecting force between the heavens and the Earth. Depend on her to bless your Will.

The High Priestess in Love (upright)

The pomegranates behind the High Priestess are symbolic of feminine energy and the palm leaves are symbolic of masculine energy, thus also making her the ‘go to’ energy, this is the reminder that all energies around us are both masculine as well as feminine. This helps a lot when it comes to relationships. The High Priestess shows up when in Love someone does not know how you feel. Even deeper, when the High Priestess shows up in relation to a reading on love one must accept the possibility that not all is being seen in the relationship as you are suppose to. She helps solve issues where there is a disagreement between partners, she assists by providing intuition that enables partners to communicate and get to the center of the issue. The key always with the High Priestess is to know that she has something to tell you which is very important, that you will not understand without her assistance and then make sure to listen. In matters of the heart this is doubly important. To find out more about the high priestess in love readings click here

Warning: She Is The Affair Card (upright)

A note of warning with the High Priestess is that she can also be guiding you to seek out the truth in a relationship. If you have concern in your relationship it is exceptionally important to follow your instincts, but to do so in a way that is not a detriment to you or the relationship. Just because you have a feeling of insecurity does not mean that your partner is cheating on you. Often we are sensitive to specific issues but the situation is not as dire as it seems. Take advice from surrounding cards to get a clear idea of what is going on in love before acting or jumping to conclusions.

Depending on the love reading, I sometimes call this card “the Inappropriate affair warning” card. To me, this card represents a passionate relationship but sometimes morally “wrong” relationship. Think of: your best friend's husband, that married guy next door, or the old Manager you worked with. 

Maybe a situationship or simply more about wanting someone to be more than they can be, emotional-availability wise. When we are afraid of intimacy, we may choose Mr. or Ms. emotionally unavailable. If the focus of our affection is an emotional stuff that is going on with you right now.

The High Priestess As Feelings (upright)

Despite being an elegant lady, she holds all her cards close to her chest. When asking about feelings, this card has this energy. The feelings can get lost in the dark with her, secret passages, not replying to texts and locked diaries. When things go wrong for her, she asks "who's fault is this?". Her true feelings are hidden from you. When you ask the tarot cards "what he feels about you", he stays silent. In his mind, he likely feels that he wants to "tilt" the balance in some way, and that he knows what you are thinking from his inner knowing and psychic understanding. 

In many ways this card represents the feelings of a platonic relationship but also that the potential lover is willing to explore that beyond the friendship realms. The high priestess is in charge, but her feelings fluctuate, as if in a cycle. Like the moon phases, or seasons. A reversed high priestess for feelings is linked to Isis (the Virgin) and can show that self-sacrifice is coming.

The High Priestess As Love Reconciliation (upright)

This card symbolizes the wisdom of knowing when to keep your feelings close while still maintaining a connection between two people. It's a reminder that sharing your innermost thoughts and emotions with someone can sometimes be hard, but that's part of what makes a relationship strong. She also stresses the importance of tolerance, comprehension, and receptivity, all of which are crucial aspects if you want to be  with this person again.  The reason I mention this is because the high priestess knows about secrets, and hardships when it comes to love but chooses to hide emotions. So thank your lucky stars she has appeared, because there is still a possibility that this love will return unexpectedly.

The High Priestess in Health (upright)

The High Priestess appears when it is necessary to focus on matters such as reproductive health. Due to her balancing abilities, she can be an excellent patron helper for birth control, or producing the proper reproductive hormones, balancing estrogen and testosterone. If there is confusion within this section of the body, ask the High Priestess for help to remove the shadows that darken that area so that the trouble can be brought to light.

The High Priestess in Work, Money, Business, Career, and Wealth (upright)

The High Priestess helps in matters of business and wealth in the sense that if you are about to get into a business with someone else, or are going through legal issues; she will help you to shed light on all that you are not aware of. This could mean paperwork that you need to sign that you weren’t aware of will come up, or the proper assistance to get your business up and running will just show up. Expect clarity and certainty in matters of business. The High Priestess clears out the sullied waters so that they shine with the vision of your future.

The High Priestess As An Action (upright)

There are times in our lives when we feel lost and uncertain, a tarot reading can help in these difficult times. As an action meaning, the High Priestess tarot card focuses on keeping secrets, pulling back, pausing, and observing. In some cases, being clueless can give us a fresh perspective and new insight into the unknown. If you are feeling lost, don't hesitate to ask your “inner guide” assistance is the message of drawing this card. You can always count on yourself to guide you back on track. Intuition, self-reflection, and awareness are all aspects of the meaning of the wonderful High Priestess Tarot card.

The High Priestess As A Person (upright)

In a tarot reading, the High Priestess represents someone who is highly intuitive and in touch with their spiritual side. If I am reading for a client I feel she is very wise and can provide guidance to others. Despite living in her own little world, she doesn't need anyone's approval. Feelings of calm and peace can be represented by the High Priestess. 

The High Priestess As A Yes Or No (upright)

In my tarot work the High Priestess represents a “Yes” answer upright. Whenever I need a straight answer, I've always trusted this card when it has appeared in my reading. Like the character in the shining, I picture her as a blank canvas, guiding me with a gentle whisper. I have always relied on the high priestess as a “No” indicator when reversed. I'm not sure I'll ever be able to fully explain why I trust her in these matters, but I do. I find myself expecting her to appear for advice on anything from small decisions to big ones, somehow transferring energy from her blank canvas to mine. Whenever I need guidance...or at least someone to lean on when I feel uncertain, she has become a kind of omniscient character in my tarot readings and shines through. To find out more about the high priestess in love readings click here

The High Priestess In The Past Position (upright)

The High Priestess that appears in the past position of a tarot reading carries a long-held, popular belief that anything hidden was revealed by looking deeply enough. In order to better guide ourselves into the future, we should look back and reflect on our actions and intentions from the past. 

The High Priestess In The Present Position (upright)

A stunning blonde haired High Priestess appears on my tarot card with a slow and tranquil nature. Trusting our intuition and following it without fear will lead us down a path of transformation and renewal. For the past this card says you have not given too much away.

The High Priestess In The Future Position or Outcome (upright)

In a tarot reading, the high priestess in the future position indicates deep inner wisdom, reflection, and a connection to the celestial world. This card often represents the Egyptian goddess Isis, known as the mother of creation, and suggests that despite our inability to control our fate, we can move forward with confidence through contemplation and acceptance. In my readings this card appears when we need to keep our emotions to ourself and shows psychic work or spiritual develoment.

The High Priestess In The Family or Friendship (upright)

To pull the high priestess in a friendship or family position is associated with relationships. It indicates that you need balance and harmony. I often see this card appear when there has been some conflict in the past. Our lives can be balanced and stabilized when we invest in meaningful relationships, as represented by the High Priestess tarot card. By investing time together or showing appreciation for one another, it may serve as a reminder in this spread position to nurture our friendships and not take them for granted.

The High Priestess In Reversed Position

When you receive the High Priestess in the reversed position, this is symbolic that you are completely detached from your intuition. Messages are being sent to you, but you are experiencing a block due to a lack of desire and momentum. The best advice that the High Priestess in Reverse has to offer is that it is time to open up your chakras and allow the spirit to move through you. Meditate, meditate, meditate!

Are the actions of your partner or a love interest hard to understand? It can seem that the motivations of others are unclear to you, like you’re seeing everything through a veil, leaving you feeling annoyed. 

Family and Home - The High Priestess Reversed

Work and Finances - The High Priestess Reversed

I don't want to freak you out, but be extra vigilant with your finances and be sure that no one is being deceitful in your place of work.

The High Priestess Reversed - Personal Spirituality

I always find that when the card comes out for our own personal growth or spirituality then something is blocked. This is likely unintentional, perhaps you have become wrapped up in daily life and have been missing the signals? This card, is urging you to pay extra attention to messages from your subconscious, they may come in the form of dreams or stray thoughts - your angels are probably trying to tell you something, you simply need to listen.
