I know. "I have the knowledge within me ”.  I trust my intuition to guide me. 
I will listen to, use and harness my intuition - I trust my soul's power. 
The High Priestess often appears in a reading when we need to trust our 
instincts and belief in ourselves…the answer lies within me. A time to explore 
hidden talents.

Until then, as they say in Egypt, "Ma'a El Salama".
