THE 2ND TAROT CARD, The High Priestess

Here we find woman invested with the insignia of spiritual authority, the Robe of Purity; In her right hand she holds the partly opened Book of the Law, which, however, is partially hidden from the profane within the folds of her Mantle. At her feet the lunar crescent, symbol of her feminine functions and her power as the Bringer-forth of the Race. She rules not by might nor by force, but by the mysterious power of Motherlove.

Man has ever received his inspiration and his physical body from woman to whose mystic power he instinctively bows.

Woman’s true place is as the High Priestess of mankind, and she should fill the same position in each home. To her belongs the control of all those questions which deal with the higher life. She must use her intuition in the directing of all activities pertaining to the altruistic side of life.

On her breast the Priestess bears the Solar Cross, the symbol that must ever express the crucifixion; the effort of Spirit to penetrate matter; the Light to illumine darkness, and that which is inner and sacred to express outwardly in the life. Hence this symbol upon the breast (over the heart) expresses woman, who ever bears the cross in her heart, while man bears it before the world and fights its battles in the arena of life.

Indeed, this is the true mission of woman, to be the radiance and the light of mankind, giving birth to the ideals of the Race. Hence the position held by woman in any country has always indicated its degree of true civilization and progress.
