The High Priestess brings the theme of what is hidden, and of choice, into a year. Something long unclear becomes clear, a secret comes out, a choice is offered and you get a chance to show yourself. An older person may support you, someone from the past may come back, and conception is possible. In the minus the same theme turns into betrayal in love or at work, deceit, impractical handling of money, a visit to the doctor, passivity, shutting yourself off and a hard life choice.
In the centre of a year forecast The High Priestess sets the whole year's background: the main events are about what comes to light and the choice you have to make, and both plus and minus can show. In the points read only in the plus, priorities and what to lean on, she points to clarity, an elder's help and a chance to be seen. In the points read only in the minus, money and the year's trials, she warns of deceit, careless spending, passivity and a difficult decision.

How do you calculate the arcana of the year?
First the year is given a date of its own: the day is the number of days in it reduced to an arcana (365 → 14, 366 → 15), the month is the year's digit sum plus 12 (2026: 10 + 12 = 22). Then it is added to your date of birth part by part, reducing sums above 22. The centre is the sum of the first four points; a 2 there means a High Priestess year.
