Wisdom that arrives in silence. The High Priestess guards the threshold of the unseen and asks you to trust intuition over intellect.
Reversed — an inner voice drowned out by noise
Disconnection from intuition, secrets withheld, or surface noise drowning the inner voice. You may be ignoring what you already quietly know.
