Why is the Lovers card important?
Your first instinct will most likely be to think of this card with love but, as love however, it doesn't have a single nature. Not only does love take many forms, but the love of a person can signal important or challenging decisions to make in your life. This is bad, in that the choices it suggests tend to be mutually exclusive paths to two very different futures, but also good, in that it confirms that at least one of these paths will take you to a better location. So, if you happen to find this in the spreads, consider it carefully, but not fear it. It is a story about difficult decisions, which are likely to be difficult, but the best decision and favorable outcome is in your grasp. The Lovers card shows naked men and women sitting across from one another. The woman appears under an apple tree with an animal, symbolizing The Garden of Eden. The man is standing before the tree, which is decorated with twelve trefoil fires, which represent the twelve zodiac signs and the fiery passion that defines his future. Above the figures is the angel of the air, Raphael, who looks at the couple as he blesses them. Air is connected to communication, which is an essential element in healthy relationships. In the background we see a mountain -- a phallic symbol -- and a riverthat is a symbol of femininity. The Lovers card depicts the unification of two opposing forces, as well as the fleeting pleasure of one moment before it gets destroyed. If you happen to draw this card it's a sign that you are at a crossroads in your life: the choices you're soon to take could change the direction of your life. The Lover can also signify that you are one who takes decisions from the heart. This card represents a passionate and sensual person who is prone to rash decisions and easily succumbs to attraction. The Lovers represent harmony, love, and perfection in relationships. Your partner and you are soul mates. Your relationship is based on deep love and trust, which gives you the ability to conquer the challenges you face together and to empower each other. The Lovers can also suggest that a sexual relationship will grow into something more, because there is a base of mutual attraction. The attraction has the potential to develop into true intimacy, as long as you are aware of the importance of communication open. The most important decision in your career usually is reflected in the Lovers card. Because it is one of the Major Arcana, your choice should not be taken lightly, as it will be a major decision with far-reaching consequences. Make sure you follow your heart and passion. This will bring you happiness and success in long run. Many times, the right option is one that appears more difficult. The Lovers may be a sign the business partnership is successful, and also that you and your partner are committed to the long haul. The Lovers symbolize mutual attraction -- not only between people, but also between you and your money. If you've been struggling on money lately, assistance is coming your way, but only if you ask for help and communicate your problems to somebody else. This is also the perfect time to take the risk of financial investment, like setting up your own business and soliciting a loan or returning to school.
