VI: The Lovers
A pyramid directs your gaze towards the sky and The Lovers appear before you, the conscious, the unconscious and the deathless higher self. Opposites united in an eternal physical and spiritual marriage, their perfect balance offers a path to enlightenment through sexual union.
The dessicated Gemini dance on the rocks below The Lovers, active and passive together exalting the body, the temple of the spirit.
Upright
- Connection
- Intimacy
- Resolution
You and another are connected throughout eternity, identical souls in two separate bodies. Conflicts between you and within yourselves are fully resolved; your physical being is a tree equally happy to receive water as it is to give sweet fruits.
The Lovers may signify a choice to be made. Be careful: although the paths diverge, the consequences are interwoven. Follow your heart to rediscover the path to realisation.
Inverted
- Disharmony
- Temptation
- Loss of status
You are the mayor of half of a city built across a gorge. Anger and disharmony fester in the streets; both sides of the city seem to work together, but neither achieves fulfilment. You are tempted to leave your post for new circumstances.
Perhaps this is a warning: deception hangs across your future, and you may find yourself the least significant point in a triangle. Make no choices that cannot be unmade.
