Parzival
High Priestess
What about her crown, that of the goddess Hathor, sometimes the mother of Horus, sometimes the goddess of the milky way? It's possibly significant that the cradle moon is at the bottom, amidst the flowing down-and-away waters, while the palms and pomegranates (both tropical plants needing strong sunlight, as well as male with female), and the Hathor crown --solar plants and stellar crown --are towards the Above, up-reaching, so that the whole image is solar-lunar above and below, and yin/yang by the dark and light pillars left and right (to us). The High Priestess with her tora is in the exact center in this way, where the Grail is said to be, where the Philosopher's Stone is said to be. (Actually, we have the solar cross in Solomon's temple.) Why this play of solar light above and lunar light below, and dark and light pillars either side?
