The High Priestess concerns the connection of the subconscious. If the Magician is the creator of material inheritance, symbolizing material mastery and change, being the DNA of matter, then the High Priestess is the creator of the subconscious.

Many subconscious elements are passed down through parents and society, potentially lasting several generations or even millennia, such as why humans universally fear snakes, images of ghosts, interpretations of myths, etc.

[Reversed Interpretation]
Ruthless, unable to think correctly, wrong direction, superstitious, unreasonable, emotionally unstable, lacking foresight, strictly rejecting love.

The new moon above emphasizes the waxing and waning characteristics of the moon, having periodicity and fluctuation. It can be described as repetitive, emotions rising and falling, emotional instability, possibly becoming unable to grasp the other party's mood.
