According to Learn Religions, Tarot cards have been used in ancient cultures: as playing cards, divination tools and artistic imagery. Considering the roots of the tarot cards, it is not surprising to learn that these cards use deep-rooted religious archetypes and the heavy symbolism of traditional gender duality. A deck of 78 cards has priests, priestesses, kings, and queens; this can hurt the tarot. It points out that by classifying qualities according to traditional male and female identities, all these give you your own intuitive meaning, and you Possible questions to this world.

In a clear demonstration, you can see that the Emperor card according to Biddy Tarot represents logic and authority, while the Queen card represents the cultivation of femininity. Tarot readers on YouTube and TikTok now interpret these symbols as ambiguous "male" and "female" energies, rather than rigid gender roles that are meaningless in the 21st century. The priestess card is like this; it is the female counterpart of the magician card. But it also has other meanings in the context of tarot reading.

According to Biddy Tarot, the magician card is the male counterpart of the high priestess, showing your control and performance over resources and the tangible world. (For example, your new business is ready to take off, or you can finally afford the house you have been tracking on Zillow). When the high priest card appears in your tarot card, she wants you to turn your attention inward. This card represents your subconscious and intuitive understanding of the world, export notes, provide spiritual enlightenment and connection with the invisible realm. You may want to sit still, meditate, and believe that you will find areas in your life that may be out of balance. 

Biddy Tarot points out that this card also invites you to connect with the divine woman—your compassion, compassion, and inner wisdom—regardless of your gender. If this card appears the other way around, you may be disconnected from this energy and focus too much on the material world.

Labyrinthos believes that in love books, the priestess may mean that you need to be patient—and also to be honest about the uncertainty or volatility in your relationship. The cards in professional reading may herald a wave of higher learning and creativity to come-because the priestess does represent divine knowledge and wisdom.
