Your first instinct will most likely be to think of this card as representing love, but, much like love, it does not possess a simple nature. It is not just that love comes in various forms, but love of a person can signal important or difficult choices ahead in your own life. This is bad because the choices it portends are usually mutually exclusive pathways to two different futures, but also good, in that it also confirms that at the very least one of them will take you to a good position. As such, if you happen to find it in your spread, consider it carefully and do not be afraid. It is a story about tough choices that are likely to be difficult, but the best decision and favorable outcome is in your reach. The Lovers card features a naked man and woman sitting across from one another. The woman appears under an apple tree and a snake, evoking an image of the Garden of Eden. The man stands in front of the tree, which is decorated with twelve trefoil flamesthat symbolize the twelve zodiac signs and the passion and fire that determines his destiny. Above the figures are the angels of the air, Raphael, who looks at the couple as the pair are blessed by him. Air is closely associated with communication, and is an essential element in healthy relationships. In the background we see a mountain -- an phallic symbol and a river, which symbolizes femininity. The Lovers card depicts the unification of two opposing forces, as well as the momentary bliss of one moment before it gets corrupted. If you are drawn to this card it's a signal that you're at a crucial crossroads; the choices you're soon to take could alter the course of your life. The Lover can also signify that you are an individual who takes decisions from the heart. This card is an empathetic and sensual individual who is susceptible to making rash choices and is easily enticed by the lure. The Lovers symbolize harmony, attraction 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 ability to conquer challenges together and help one another. The Lovers can also suggest that a relationship with a sexual partner will evolve into something more since there's a basis of attraction. The attraction can grow into genuine intimacy, so you recognize the importance of communication open. An important career decision often occurs on the Lovers card. Since it's part of the Major Arcana, your choice must 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. Sometimes, the best option is one that appears more challenging. The Lovers could be an indication that the business partnership is successful, and also that you and your partner are in it for the long run. The Lovers are a symbol of attraction -- not only between individuals, but also between you and money. If you have been short in cash lately, help is on its way, but only if you ask for help and communicate your concerns to someone else. It is also a great time to take the risk of financial investment, like starting your own business, asking for a loan, or returning to school.
