The Priestess of the Silver Star
La Papesse
The Priestess of the Silver Star
Numbers II, III, IV, V = Leaders of Society.
Numbers II and III represent two women: numbers IV and V, their husbands: they are the temporal and spiritual leaders of society.
The High Priestess sits in an armchair: she wears a long dress with a type of veil behind her head which descends to cross over her breast: she has a double crown with two horns like that of Isis: she holds a book open on her knees; two scarves furnished with crosses cross on her abdomen and form an X there.
