Lovers

And lastly but not least-ly we come to one of the most known and most-debated card of Major Arcana i.e. The Lovers.
In its classical interpretation The Lovers is usually related and read in relation to connections, relationships and love life. It shows us where the key to conscious and meaningful relationships lie. It may be read as an invitation to understanding closeness on spiritual, emotional, sexual level between partners. But it is also a good card to understand relationships in families or between friends and comrades.
The Lovers, however, has many other paths to interpreting them.
While we are entangle ourselves in the love magic of enchantments, sentiments and romanticism, The Lovers can be a quite appropriate way to dwelve in depth the candid relationships, truthfulness, honesty in communication between ourselves and our loved ones. Not necessarily only in terms of truths we live by but also through understanding how female/male aspects of our psyche work. How they influence our principles and beliefs.
The usual problem with finding the beliefs and principia that represent us truly is through integrating our experience and introspective analysis of what the life is truly about. Understanding it through analysing our traits and how true are we to working on them, both the ones that stem from subconscious and conscious aspects.
The choice is yours as the common expression says. But do we truly understand our choices?
and do we truly follow our heart or just by chance think that we do?
Quite often the problem lies in a broken relationship with self-love and respect. Do we really respect ourselves and what we bring to this world by denigrating our sense of self-belief and understanding our potential which can be both of analytical and sensitive as well as initiative and progressing in action?
Question of understanding and valuing our strengths is often unrecognised by not recognising it in others. We are truly at war with ourselves while not admiting it but radiating that to others and commencing unnecessary conflicts...
Love is the answer - but how we understand its core is even more important.
