Missed the previous one? No problem! The Magician: [link]
Next up, The Empress: [link]

This is #3 of 22 of my Tarot remakes, No. 2 on the deck, The High Priestess. This one represents hidden knowledge, and as such can read either wisdom and learning, or ignorance, depending on its position. Although the original imagery of this card is usually that of a Christian priestess, I moved away from that to make something more universal. She is instead portrayed as a woman covered almost entirely (of course the "hidden" symbolism), with an eye on top of her head for extra-physical knowledge, and holding a closed book (the original is holding an open book... Again with the hidden symbolism, it is more fitting if it is closed.) Apart from that there is not much more to it... I do love how she came out though, nice and simple... Stick with me, and expect the next one, The Empress... Good riddance :3
