Love Tarot: The Lovers Card Meaning and What to Do When You Get it

Your first instinct will most likely be to interpret this card with love however, just as love, it does not have a single nature. Not only does love comes in many forms, but the lovers can indicate significant or challenging decisions to make in your daily life. This is bad in the sense that the choices it suggests are usually mutually exclusive pathways to two divergent futures, but beneficial, since it is a sign that at the very least one of those paths will lead you to a good place. If you happen to find it in your spread, you should consider it carefully and not be afraid of it. It is a story about difficult decisions, which are likely to be difficult, but the correct decision and a positive outcome are within your reach. The Lovers card features two naked women and a naked man sitting across from one another. The woman is seated under an apple tree with an animal, symbolizing the Garden of Eden. The man is standing before an oak tree that has twelve trefoil fires, which represent the twelve signs of the zodiac and the fiery passion that defines his destiny. The figure above are the angels of air, Raphael, who looks down upon the pair as they bless them. The element of air is connected to communication, which is a pillar of healthy relationships. In the background we see mountains -- an phallic symbol as well as a river, which is a symbol of femininity. The Lovers card depicts the unification of two forces that are at odds, as well as the momentary bliss of just a few seconds before it's destroyed. If you are drawn to this card it's a sign that you're at a crucial crossroads; the choices you're about to take will alter the course of your existence. The Lovers can also indicate that you're an individual who takes decisions with a heart. This card represents a passionate and sensual person who is easily influenced by impulsive decisions and easily fall prey to the lure. The Lovers represent harmony, love, and perfection in relationships. You and your partner are soul mates. Your relationship is based on a deep love as well as trust giving you the strength to overcome obstacles together and empower one another. The Lovers could also indicate that a relationship with a sexual partner will develop into something more, since there's a basis of attraction. The attraction can grow into true intimacy, as long as you acknowledge the importance of communicating openly. A crucial career decision usually manifests itself at the Lovers card. Since it's an element of Major Arcana, your choice should not be made lightly, as it will have far reaching consequences. Make sure you follow your heart and passion. This will lead to happiness and success in long term. Many times, the right option is one that initially appears more challenging. The Lovers may also be a sign that an enterprise partnership is a fruitful one, and that both of you are committed to the long run. The Lovers symbolize mutual attraction -- not only between two people, but between you and your money. If you've been low in cash lately, help is on its way but only if ask for help and communicate your issues to another person. This is also the perfect moment to consider taking an investment risk, such as creating your own company and soliciting a loan or going back to school.
