Personality (Strengths & Weaknesses)

Phlegmatic Type 1 is associated with the Blue HSV Personality (Water).

Phlegmatic Type 2 is associated with the Green HSV Personality (Water).

NOTE: Of the seven personalities, those with a phlegmatic constitution are inclined to be highly sensitive, so if your aura is primarily blue or green, you will be way more sensitive than most Highly Sensitive People and, maybe, psychic.​ 

The High Priestess Traditional Meanings

There may come a time (and this may be one of them) when you must trust your inner voice and rely on your gut instinct. There may be secrets and hidden agendas not yet revealed to you.

Search your heart, pay attention to your dreams, and consider consulting with those who have access to special pearls of wisdom. Reflect, meditate, and pray for in-depth insight into matters that concern you. You are quite capable of unseen talents.

Do not simply rely on validation from others at this point. There may be a bound script, a book, or some other form of reading material that could help you now. Strive to seek the facts before proceeding. Do not speak hastily. Try to remember there is much power to be gained through silence.

Pay attention to your needs. Fill your body with proper sustenance. Emotionalism, if not addressed, will undoubtedly sabotage any hope of genuine understanding.

The Tarot High Priestess Biblical Meaning

The Tarot High Priestess is connected to the Virgin Mary and is always aware and understands that there are, spiritually, two sides to everything. She is highly empathic, privy to spiritual secrets, and seeks to shine a spiritual light on the very depths of both sides of an issue, helping others emerge from the shadows. However, many will oppose her due to her sensitivity to the spirit world. She prays to God, her connection to universal consciousness, for equilibrium and humility so as not to become self-serving but, instead, an instrument of peace. The High Priestess always suggests paying attention to your dreams and opening your mind to the unseen.

The High Priestess in a Health Reading

Emotional suppression, waves, and intuitive overwhelm cause stress, leading to mood shifts, sleep problems, and fatigue.

Possible issues with breasts (chest), ovaries, womb, the female cycle, hormones (imbalances, such as thyroid imbalance, menopause, stress hormones), not enough rest, not recovering well, or refusing to follow your intuition. The High Priestess can represent people who are highly sensitive and may experience physical symptoms when exposed to negativity.

Moon milk, warm herbal teas, and lavender baths can be beneficial.

Note: Holistic alternatives for hormonal imbalances are available here.
