the story:

FINAL FORMULA. THE MOST POTENT RENDITION. Representing the mysterious unconscious, The High Priestess is a fertile ground for creative impressions to take seed and incubate. Connected to the Moon, The High Priestess represents potential awaiting the active principle capable of bringing it to full expression (this is the graduation between The High Priestess, The Empress, and The Emperor). The High Priestess is a balancing force for The Magician’s creative impulse. She reminds us of the work yet to be done internally before venturing into a more explicit communication. Working with this key calls for a level of silence in the movement as the indications of this energy compel us to communicate with the sources within. Still dealing with the intellect, the 2 vibration is one that reflects a kind of “binary”, but truly it is the reflection of unity and the ability to perceive things visible and invisible. The High Priestess is a scientist in that this being is a knowing entity. The plants used here bring forward the disposition of intentional silence and fluid attunement to divine wisdom. Valerian helps instill beta brain waves which can help to reduce anxiety, alleviate stress and depression, all the while relieving chronic pain and even increasing athletic performance. Valerian has a steadying energy about them that can help us move between worlds as the High Priestess’s key is meant to. The combination of Valerian and Romerillo is effective as both an activator of intuition and a catalyst for lucidity. The High Priestess, existing in the realm where true knowledge is made evident and the true power of faith gives birth to the light within, is one whose key is for revelation and guiding. This is the path of masters coming and going upon the earth, simultaneously receiving and shedding illumination. Furthering the work with this one, they can help us commune with ancestral timelines to help us interpret and enact overdue healing. Like the lunar signature that governs this key, this root and flower medley activates memory and helps us to assess, process, and even tell our stories. Furthermore, this fortifies fluidity and simultaneous concentration of our forces and stamina. The journey of The High Priestess is one that can enhance our own awareness of self through allowing repose of the mind and recovery of precision and discernment. By allowing a tempering of the fires of current times with a dose of lunar chill, we can afford ourselves a great, needed, and deserved exaltation of the potential contained in our incubations.
