The High Priestess Within: Returning to Your Inner Oracle

You were never lost—you just stopped listening.

There is a voice within you.

She doesn’t yell, doesn’t panic, doesn’t rush to explain herself.

She waits… She whispers.

She knows.

She is your Inner Oracle. The part of you that’s seen lifetimes. The part that remembers who you were before the pain, before the roles, before the world told you how to be.

She is the High Priestess within—and she never left.

You just got good at doubting her.

🌫 How We Forget

We forget her when we let outside noise drown her out:

A parent who shames our instincts

A partner who gaslights our intuition

A job that prizes productivity over presence

A spiritual space that teaches hierarchy instead of self-trust

I forgot her once too. Many times, in fact.

I forgot her when I begged for answers from people who couldn’t give me clarity, because they hadn’t earned their own. I forgot her when I let guilt override my gut. When I stayed too long, when I gave too much, when I confused loyalty with self-abandonment… I wasn’t broken—I was just misaligned because truthfully, the High Priestess never leaves. She just sits and waits… until you’re ready to return.

🔮 Recognising Her Voice Again

The High Priestess doesn’t scream over chaos.

She waits for your permission to speak.

But her voice is distinct:

She feels like calm clarity, not frantic urgency. She speaks in nudges, symbols, gut reactions. She won’t fight for your attention—but you’ll feel off when you ignore her. She will feel familiar. Like home.

Like you.

For me, she often speaks in dreams.

In flashes of déjà vu.

In those moments after ritual when the veil feels thinner…Or sometimes, she sounds like silence that somehow answers every question I had.

🕯 When I Finally Listened

There was a night—one of many—where I sat on the floor after ending a karmic connection.

No rituals. No affirmations. No music.

Just silence.

And in that stillness, I heard her:

“You already knew the ending before you said hello.”

She didn’t say it cruelly.

She said it kindly.

She was reminding me that I had always known.

But I was finally willing to believe her.

It was humbling.

And it was holy. To sit in truth and not flinch.

That night, I realized she wasn’t just my intuition.

She was my council.

My seer.

My self.

🧬 You Are Your Own Oracle

You don’t need to consult ten people to make a decision.

You don’t need to delay your truth until someone else confirms it.

You already know.

But you’ve been conditioned to ignore it.

Because the world profits off your confusion.

Religion, capitalism, even some spiritual communities—they keep you reaching outward so you forget the inward route home.

The High Priestess isn’t just a tarot archetype.

She is a frequency.

A state of being.

A way of living from deep alignment.

And when you embody her?

Your life becomes a ritual.

Your boundaries become sacred.

Your words become spells.

Your silence becomes strength.

🔐 How to Reconnect with Her

This isn’t a “5 steps to enlightenment” list— but here’s what helped me return to her, again and again:

1. Create sacred stillness: You can’t hear her over chaos. Light a candle. Sit with your breath. Listen.

2. Ask, then wait: She answers through your body, your knowing, your dreams.

3. Write without editing: Let your thoughts pour through. Your truth will be hidden in the parts you want to delete. Speak your truth—even if it shakes. Especially when it shakes.

4. Trust the first no: That first gut feeling is her. Don’t override it.

5. Stop outsourcing your power: You are not missing anything. You are remembering everything.

💌 Final Words to You

You are not here to be told who you are.

You are here to remember.

And your remembrance will not always be loud or easy or graceful—

But it will always be real.

The High Priestess within you is not an unreachable version of yourself.

She’s just the part of you that never forgot.

And she’s waiting for you to come home.

You don’t have to be the loudest in the room.

You just have to be the clearest within yourself.
