Tarot: High Priestess

Carpe Diem #187


haunted by my past
The High Priestess endures all
now she sets me free

sister behind the wall
knows the secrets of the mind
leads me to safety

Face of the Breeze, Polyvore by grace2244

  4. Reading about Tarot card history and seeing them is kind of scary for me but trying to be okay with it. Some of what I write may reveal that. When I saw that Krisjaan wrote of the sister's face appearing in the wind, I immediately recalled the artwork I had done that looked like that. This art is related to good feelings though. Escapist.

  5. Nothing to be afraid of Maggie. The way in which I hope to portray the Tarot is based on good feelings and somewhat Christianity

    1. Yes, and it's good for me to see the good meanings. When I was little, the occult tarot was used with me. Scary stuff. Trying to transform anything that should be safe.

    1. I know I'm strange but I was just wondering if what I still don't know about my past will be gone forever after my journey to Sedona. The inside answer was "yes". Some things I never wanted to know. Wisdom knows but can keep it from me even after the dark self leaves. I should write a novel.

  9. Thank goodness there is a sister, a deeper self perhaps, who can lead one to safety!
