This painting is an interpretation of a traditional major arcana tarot card. The High Priestess holds the scrolls of esoteric teachings and is the keeper of knowledge. She sits at the veil between worlds, her foot resting on the moon of intuition, the water indicative of the depths of the unknown. The choice of the hare throughout this series stems from traditional lore suggesting that the hare was the embodiment of the witch, or the transfigured sorceress.
