The High Priestess
(La Papesse)
Symbolism:
The High Priestess is shown seated, holding an open book, signifying hidden knowledge and mysteries. She is flanked by two pillars (sometimes black and white), representing duality and balance. Her veil hints at the separation between the conscious and subconscious. Her serene expression reflects her mastery of the inner world and her connection to divine intuition.
Meaning:
The High Priestess embodies mystery, wisdom, and the power of intuition. She encourages stillness and reflection, guiding you to trust your inner voice over external noise. This card often appears when something hidden needs to be uncovered, whether it's a secret, a truth, or a deeper understanding of oneself.
In relationships, the High Priestess may suggest emotional depth or hidden dynamics. Spiritually, she symbolises the gateway to higher knowledge, urging you to explore the realms of dreams and symbols to uncover your truth.
Keywords:
Intuition, mystery, inner wisdom, reflection, subconscious, hidden knowledge, spirituality, patience, introspection, stillness.
This card shows unconscious driving forces that neither you nor your company is aware of about you. This is the Great Unknown.

The Magician
(Le Bateleur)
Symbolism:
The Magician is a youthful figure standing behind a table, holding a wand aloft while other tools lie before him—often a coin, a cup, and a sword. These tools represent mastery over the elements and the power to manifest intentions. His hat, shaped like a lemniscate, symbolises infinite potential, and his posture suggests readiness and action. The vibrant colours of his attire evoke creativity, energy, and a zest for life.
Meaning:
The Magician represents the power of initiative, skill, and resourcefulness. He embodies the ability to turn ideas into reality, combining intellect, action, and willpower. The card often signals the beginning of a new venture or opportunity, where focus and confidence are key. However, it also serves as a warning to avoid manipulation or overconfidence.
The Magician invites you to be aware of your tools and talents, urging you to act with intention. It also reminds you that success depends on your ability to harmonise thought and action.

Death
(La Mort)
Symbolism:
A skeletal figure wielding a scythe moves through a barren landscape. Heads, hands, and flowers lie beneath the scythe, symbolising the inevitable end of all things. Despite its grim imagery, the card signifies renewal and the promise of rebirth.
Meaning:
Death represents transformation, endings, and the clearing away of the old to make space for the new. This card doesn't predict physical death but rather signifies a profound shift or transition. It invites you to release attachments and embrace the inevitability of change.
In relationships, Death can mark the end of a phase, whether through growth or closure. Spiritually, it emphasises rebirth, renewal, and the cycles of life.
Keywords:
Transformation, endings, rebirth, change, renewal, transition, letting go, closure, release, metamorphosis.
