A key aspect of reading your own tarot is interpreting cards. For a beginner interpreting a single card can be fine, as there are plenty of resources to help you out, however interpreting two or more can be very tricky.
However, if you have been practising single card readings for a while a 2 card spread will be a great introduction into reading multiple cards.
As you’ve found this page, you’re probably wondering how to interpret the The High Priestess card and 3 Of Wands card together in particular.
The The High Priestess card and 3 Of Wands have unique qualities and will interact with each other in different ways depending on what kind of reading you are doing.
What does The High Priestess and 3 Of Wands mean together?
The High Priestess tarot card and The 3 Of Wands tarot card together mean that you should trust your intuition and listen to your inner voice. You have the ability to see things that others cannot see, and you can use this to your advantage. Trusting your intuition will help you make the best decisions for your health and your relationships. The 3 Of Wands tarot card also suggests that you work well with others, and that you are able to expand your horizons. This can be a great time for travel and new experiences. You may also find success in commerce and business.
The meaning of the cards will depend on what kind of reading you are doing and the question you asked the deck. This is a guide covering the general meanings of the cards and how they relate to each other.
Common 2-card spreads
Whilst it’s great to know who these two cards interact with each other, it’s important to note that the meaning will depend on the context of your spread
The most common 2 card spreads I recommend to newer readers are:
- The 2 card cross (otherwise known as “The Fool’s Journey”)
- The 2 card “Yes or No”
“The Fool’s Journey”
Setup: The two card cross is where you place two cards face up, one placed vertically and with one laying horizontally over
Interpretation: The 2 cards represent a “situation” and a “challenge”. The first card will describe the situation you are in with the second horizontal card being the “challenge” crossing you (literally crossing you in this case!)
Reading: Using the overviews in this guide is a great way to start. First, look at the meanings of the 2 cards, and see how they might relate either as your “situation” or “challenge”. Once you have that you can look at the general overview for how the two cards interact with each other.
The benefit of this spread is that it can give clarity when you’re feeling uncertain or anxious. Once you have clarity of thought, and a strong idea of what your challenge is you can find solutions to help your situation
The 2 card “Yes or No”
Setup: The 2 card “Yes or No” is where you place two cards face up side by side, whilst asking your deck a “yes or no” question.
Interpretation: Each card in a tarot deck has a “yes” or a “no” meaning. Look at the meanings of each card, and you will have your answer.
The benefit of this is you get a stronger yes or no compared to a single card draw. You may find you often get a mix of “yes or no”, and this is fine. It simply means there is doubt, or things are not yet clear.
Yes or No meaning
Things are a bit tricky for this combination, as The High Priestess and 3 Of Wands mean different things. The cards are unsure about your question, or the answer to the question has not yet been decided.
The “Yes” and “No” meanings can differ from reader to reader. The meanings here are based on what I believe are the generally accepted definitions.
What does The High Priestess mean?
For health, The High Priestess Tarot card means that you should keep your own counsel and trust your intuition. You know more than you think you do, and it is important to listen to your body and your gut instinct when it comes to your health. Other people may have opinions, but ultimately, you are the only one who knows what is best for you.
For finances, The High Priestess Tarot card means that you may be keeping some secrets about your money. Perhaps you are not being entirely honest with yourself about your spending, or you are holding back information from your partner about your financial situation. It is important to be open and honest about money, as secrets can lead to problems down the road.
For relationships, The High Priestess Tarot card means that you may be keeping some secrets from your partner. It is important to be honest and open with the people you love, as secrets can damage trust and lead to communication problems. If you are feeling intuition or gut instinct about something in your relationship, trust your instincts and communicate with your partner.
What does 3 Of Wands mean?
The 3 of Wands tarot card is a positive card that signifies teamwork, commerce, expansion, and travel. For health, the 3 of Wands tarot card indicates that you are in good health and have the vitality to pursue your goals. For finances, the 3 of Wands tarot card suggests that you are financially secure and have the resources to grow your wealth. For relationships, the 3 of Wands tarot card suggests that you have strong and supportive relationships.
Conclusion
Understanding how the meaning of a reading changes once you start involving more than one card can be tricky. This will come with time and practice, however I hope this guide on what your cards might be telling you when you draw The High Priestess and 3 Of Wands has helped you.
