All About Tarot: The Major Arcana

The Lovers

The Lovers card, also called The Twins or L'Amoureux in some decks is associated with the sign Gemini and the air element. It is the fifth card pulled in a new unshuffled deck and number 6 in the major arcana.

Upright this card can mean love, harmony, trust, a leap of faith, choice, perfect union, attraction or attractiveness, conscious connections, meaningful relationships or perfection in relationships and so on.

Reversed this card can often be interpreted as meaning unreliability, seperation or a breakup of sorts, second guessing, values, conflict, coldness within a relationship, being out of sync with those around you, a struggle to take responsibility or own up to a mistake or bad decision you made and more.

In general, this card talks of finding balance in ones self and relationships, though it may talk of love, ties, attraction and relationships it isnt always necessarily romantic, it may be platonic, aesthetic or some other form of attraction as there are many types of attraction and love and its important to keep that in mind.

This card is very focused on talking about your relationships and paired with other cards, say the Emperor or the Empress, it may talk about certain figures in your life and your relationship with them.

It's all up for interpretations of the reader and yourself of course, everyone thinks differently and knows different details another might not so whatever you feel the cards are telling you is entirely up to you.

Common sighting in the cards depictions are of course, two people. These two people could be male and female to represent opposing energies (or because heterosexuality is "the norm"), they could be human or non-human. The card from my deck depicts beauty and the beast(a woman and a man cursed to live in a beasts form), figures from tales with similar meanings to the cards are a frequent thing in art for the major arcana, as interpretations are heavily based on association this sort of thing tends to help get the point across.

You may see other things in the card such as a figure above the two or light and dark contrasts (as ballance is an important part of relationships as well as possibly representing the phrase "opposites attract"), often some form of nature like trees or clouds. A lot of cards depict the two lovers or twins as across from one another and apart but just as many may show the two embracing one another.

(its also extremely common to see these two naked in the card's art, at least in older cards that seem to be depicting adam and eve, but there are a few people have made that might show something like a nakey coupla' gays. now adays the cards are depicting more clothed couples. this doesnt necessarily mean anything i just thought it was worth noting)

Common colours tend to be black and white, yellows, pinks and/or reds, and blues and/or purples. Its common to see both complementary and contrasting colours which help bring out both the upright and reversed meanings of the card, as well as just look very nice together. Its also common to see colours that are close to each others complementary or contrasting colours on the colour wheel but arent quite that (yellow being close to orange which is blue's contrast and so on).

if you have anything more that you'd like to add or noticed something i havent brought up, or if you have any questions, please feel free to let me know!

After finishing the 12 days of cinemagraph-mas I wanted to do more cinemagraph but was lacking inspiration on what to do.

I eventually decided to try and do a Tarot card. I didn't know which one to do so I decided to do all the Major Arcana.

Then I decided to just do all of them and post them all at the same time.

Thanks to wikipedia for having pictures of all the Rider–Waite set.

so we all know i'm horrible at posting consistently on any social media but its especially worse on tumblr and for that i apologize Dx

but ive been reworking all my tarot prints lately to incorporate the new border that i used on the Lovers card! these might be blurry bc i had to resize them for the internet to be happy but i promise the prints are high quality haha

i've been posting a lot more on my instagram (@henriheffronstudio) because im selling stickers on my etsy and i have more traffic there than here, which is really my own fault bc i never post here but anyway

if anyone is interested in just checking out my etsy shop, i'll link it below! i'm also selling certain stickers as a fundraiser for the PCRF to help children in Palestine, so definitely check those out if you want! I'm also hoping to continue my tarot series soon now that i've finally reworked all of my old ones, so look out for that sometime in the not so immediate future (we all know i'm gonna forget to post it)

The Lovers: Lumity and Raeda

Upright: Love, unions, partnerships, relationships, romance, choice, balance, unity, harmony, shared values, communication

Reversed: Disharmony, imbalance, relationship issues, conflict, detachment, indecision, disconnection, miscommunication

For the card of love, relationships, and unity, the show’s two most ‘major’ romantic ships were obvious choices. Both relationships have their ups and downs, but Luz and Amity’s relationship is primarily very healthy, balanced, and harmonious. They bring out the best in each other, and communicate their concerns when they encounter conflict or setbacks. It might be young love, but it’s real love. They consistently choose each other over and over again, approaching everything life (the plot) has thrown at them as a team.

Raeda is the other side of the romance coin; more mature and bittersweet, full of tension and baggage. While it’s clear that Raine and Eda care deeply for each other, a lack of communication due to their respective issues and trauma (Eda’s fear of hurting Raine due to her curse, Raine’s decision to join a coven despite Eda’s dislike for the system) created disharmony between them, eventually leading to a separation that lasted many years. Even so, time heals all wounds, and these two were fortunate enough to have the opportunity to reconnect and reestablish the love they’ve always carried for each other.

"The "meme" that represents season 2's romantic dynamics is bad and unfunny unlike the previous season. On a better note, turns out that The Moon also has mostly negative readings!"

[theskeletontarot]

Meet The Lovers, your cosmic wingmen setting the stage for a heartwarming scene that's basically a rom-com in card form. You've got two lovebirds, totally into each other, standing hand in hand and basking in the cosmic glow. It's like the universe's way of saying, "Check out this adorable skeletal couple!"

And guess what? There's an angel in the mix, adding a touch of divine cheer to the whole situation. It's like having a celestial cheerleader rooting for the romance from above. Plus, the tree of life reminds us we have choices, and a snake wrapped around one skeleton represents an active spiritual practice providing energy for the couple.

However, I like to read this card not as about romance, but as about our conscious and unconscious selves, our inner aspects versus our outer aspects, the opposites and contradictions that exist within us cohabitating in unity. 💖✨

When The Lovers card comes up for you, consider:

are you following your intuition or ignoring? especially in relationships!

what might be hidden in the situation you're in?

have you gone to extremes? can you seek balance?

If The Lovers show up in reverse, maybe:

you are having difficulty trusting others

or difficulty being vulnerable

or difficulty with a certain aspect within yourself
