Love Tarot: The Lovers Card Meaning and What to Do When You Get it
Your initial reaction will likely be to think of this card with love, but, much as love is not the only thing that it represents, it doesn't possess a simple nature. Not only does love take many forms, but the Lovers may indicate important or difficult choices ahead in your own life. This is bad, in that the choices that it implies are generally mutually exclusive, options that lead to two completely divergent futures, but beneficial, since it confirms that at least one of those paths will take you to a good position. If you spot it in your spread, consider it carefully, but not fear it. It is a story about difficult choices, likely difficult, but the correct decision and a positive outcome are within your reach. The Lovers card shows naked men and women standing across from each other. The woman is seated under an apple tree, accompanied by snakes, which evokes an image of the Garden of Eden. The man stands before a tree with twelve trefoil flames, which represent the twelve zodiac signs and the fiery passion that defines his destiny. Over the figures is the angel of air, Raphael, who looks at the two as he blesses them. The element of air is closely associated with communication, and is the foundation of healthy relationships. The background depicts the mountain, which is a phallic symbol -- as well as a river, which represents femininity. The Lovers card symbolizes the unification of two forces that are at odds, and also the fleeting bliss of just a few seconds before it's destroyed. If you happen to draw this card it's a sign that you are at a crossroads in your life: the decisions you are soon to make may alter the course of your existence. The Lovers can also indicate that you're an individual who takes choices from the heart. This card is a passionate and sensual person who is easily influenced by impulsive decisions and easily succumbs to temptation. The Lovers symbolize harmony, love, and the perfect relationship. Your partner and you are soul mates. Your relationship is built on deep love and faith, giving you the power to face the challenges you face together and to empower one another. The Lovers may also mean that a sexual relationship can grow into something more, since there's a basis of mutual attraction. The attraction can grow into genuine intimacy, so long as you are aware of the importance of communicating openly. The most important decision in your career usually is reflected in the Lovers card. Since it's an element of Major Arcana, your choice should not be taken lightlyas it could have far reaching consequences. Follow your heart and your passion. This will lead to satisfaction and success in the long term. Sometimes, the best choice is the one that initially appears more difficult. The Lovers may also be a sign that the business partnership is successful, and that you and your partner are committed to the long haul. The Lovers symbolize mutual attraction not just between two people, but between you and money. If you've been struggling on cash recently, help is on its way but only if ask for help and communicate your issues to someone else. This is also the perfect time to take a financial risk such as setting up your own business, soliciting a loan or going back to school.
