The High Priestess

The High Priestess — about observation and inner silence. She knows more than she says, and her power lies in the ability to wait, to hold others' secrets and to discern nuances where others see only one colour.

Secrecy without reason and passivity masquerading as wisdom: a person avoids choosing to escape responsibility.

An arcana by itself is not a verdict nor a characteristic: it answers the question of the position it occupies. The same arcana in the centre and in the relationships area indicates different things — in the centre about what the person returns to, in relationships about how they approach. Therefore, reading the matrix starts with the question of the position, not with the name of the arcana.
