3 Card Tarot Reading

The Lovers Tarot Card Meaning

Seeing the Lovers in your reading is a favorable sign.

Often interpreted as romantic love referring to marriage or sexuality, it is also much more than this. The card being present represents the hand of the divine reaching down and blessing you in your life at this time. Now is a time of fruitful change and one in which you are encouraged to act. Changes that come up in your life at this time are usually for the better and bring with them good fortune, harmony, and a time of peace in your life.

The Lovers card represents love and affection at it’s highest point. The two figures on the card offer themselves naked to the higher being in the sky often referred to as God. Thy symbolism of growth and sexuality in the card leads the viewer to understand that the love that the card is depicting is not first love or the beginning stages of love. It is more pronounced and mature and often references marriage between the two on the card.

The Lovers card is one of the cards in the tarot that greatly depends on the other cards surrounding it. It’s important to view the location and the placement of the card in order for the true meaning for you personally to be understood. If drawn in a one card reading – like in the case that you are looking for inspiration for your day or wondering what energies are around you right now then it is truly a great card. It says that your day is going to be one of attention and uncharacteristically positive. Today is a good day to make choices, take risks, and be carefree. If in a more complex reading the Lovers card also heralds good news regarding communication and personal values. If you are seeking the answer to a specific dilemma rest assured that you are in the right and that you can trust your own opinions to be received in a positive light.

The Lovers in Love

The Lovers card is a grand card indicating relationship bonds and the affection of those around you. Often it will denote that you are in or headed towards a lasting relationship worth developing and committing to. Other areas of life are affected by this card as well. It confirms positive inclinations of the heart by telling you that you can trust the path you are on should continue moving forward. If you are looking for love and the Lovers card appears congratulations! This is a favorable omen about a relationship beginning. Most of the time the Lovers card appears when a relationship will be starting with someone that you already know and are already close or intimate with. It can indicate that a friend is actually interested in something more or that a lover is looking for a more serious arrangement.

In a relationship reading if you see the Lovers card combined with the Tower, the Magician or the Devil card it tells you that you must be wary in a relationship – usually love or close friendship – and that something is being hidden from you. With these combinations but the Devil card specifically in your reading, it is always best to seek a further explanation by asking for clarification from the deck and drawing another random card. This is because the Devil card and the Love card are actually closely related to card mythology. When you see these two together it can indicate an unhealthy obsession or unrequited love that should be avoided.

The Lovers As Feelings

This is a card which means the person you have asked about feels that you are his soul mate. The lovers is about that special person that you connect with. This is about passionate nights together, but also it is about choice. The choice to be together on a psychic level and also about how two people can be for each other. When the lovers appear as feelings it is about being full of emotion and that you both will be together in the end. I like to think of this as Romo and Juliet in terms of that love connection. This is about wanting sex with you, wanting love with you and just wanting you all around. The star sign with this card is Gemini which makes me feel there is a balance here, the history of the lovers card is about “love” in my view. That deep sensual love and lust that we feel in the beginning of a relationship. 

The Lovers Tarot Card Yes or No

The Lovers tarot card for “Yes or No” readings is about the connection between love and hate, in my experience. Reading tarot for 30 years I believe it is not as clear as you might think when it comes to yes or no. I know that seems a bit sharp. In my view, this card is a reminder that sometimes we can block off or ghost at the drop of a hat, but if we love ourselves enough to take a step back and just wonder why has this happened. This card in love yes or no is a “Maybe” as it is a choice card, just like the seven of cups in my view. The lover's tarot card acts as a "moral reminder" of how important it is to be kind, show compassion and be understanding - even when it isn't easy. Learning to trust your intuition and act with integrity will get you the results you desire in any situation, especially when it comes to matters of the heart - so remember to listen to what your heart tells you.

The Lovers As Action/Advice

The Lovers card tells us to choose love and move forward with our own decisions, no matter how weird or crazy they might be. It calls for a complete bridge of two souls merging together in real strength across the rainbow. To use this connection wisely is to think positively, act lovingly, and do what your heart tells you is right. For love radiates not only as an emotion but through our actions too: Love itself can be seen like a verb or power we direct towards ourselves and others alike!

The Lovers As Past

When I see the lover's tarot card in the past position, I personally see this as bridging our hearts and souls together as one. I love this when it pops up in the past position. This can be past love or marriage partners. In the past, if you pull the lovers then I believe the union has already taken place. I do feel this is a great card for love in the future if you are single and the past has not treated you too well.

The lover's card in the past reminds me very much of Adam and Eve, in that there has been this amazing connection between you both - you are here because there has been a Union between two people - who are in LOVE. If you are currently alone or on your own and you draw the Lovers for the past it can mean that an everlasting love has entered your life. 

I also believe that we have Temptations no matter what happens in our lives: temptations of how we go about a love affair or temptations to end a situation that we don't feel serves us anymore. so, I do feel that this card equals that love is likely to flourish and the fact that it appeared in your past means that love has happened between you and somebody else. I'm also going to say that nobody's actually perfect in life we all have our ups and downs. few are looking at finding out if somebody still wants to be with you and you draw the Lovers for the past.

The Lovers Tarot Card As Reconciliation

Standing together in my card the two lovers can get over any storm. The message if you are asking for love reconciliation from this tarot card is that love will happen again. Previously, the man and women were married by the Hierophant on the fools journey. Whenever I draw this card in my readings, I believe that love wins though all the rubbish that life throws at us. The lovers is about choice as I have said before but also decision. If this card pops up in a reversal for reconciliation then it is probably a no I am afraid. 

The Lovers As A Person

It can mean that a person is thinking of you allot, and as this card is ruled by Venus then this could be connected to a Taurus. There is a focus on following your heart if this comes up as a person. I do think there should be some level here of giving a choice in love. And, I believe this is a good card if you want marriage from this person so this is the choice of marrying someone or not. The card is also deemed related to Gemini - so to me, this is about the fact that this person can be up and down about you. Sometimes you in there minds and at times you don’t. To me, this is all about crazy or things that will pass, and good decisions will be needed going forward in this relationship. 

The Lovers in Health

The Lovers isn’t a common card for health readings, but if it does come up it is usually less about your personal health and more a reassurance that you have support at this time. Other times in health readings the Lovers card will indicate a health problem with a body part that has two parts to it – kidneys, lungs, arms, eyes and there being an issue with both. The Lovers is also indicative of all things revolving around the heart, metaphysically speaking. It will appear in times of grief or loss, but usually as a hopeful card showing that things will be better. When dealing with a loss.

The Lovers Work and Wealth

Attraction isn’t always between two people. The Lovers card represents attraction in finances and money as well. Think of the ‘Law of Attraction’ and apply it to your work or financial situation. Now is a good time for you to branch out and make something happen for yourself. If you have been thinking about a job change then now is the time to do it. When dealing with a delicate work or financial time, rest assured that there is assistance coming your way that is going to lighten your load. The Lovers card can also refer to the coming together of forces, such as in a business proposition, starting a company, or even when seeking a loan. It is an excellent time for you to be seeking out these opportunities.

Reversed Lovers in a reading

Even in the reversed position the Lovers card still represents attraction, coming together, and completion. However, when turned flip-side the coming together that the card speaks of is for all of the wrong reasons. In a relationship setting it refers to people being sexual but not connecting in other areas or can represent a marriage that is lacking substance. The two are not seeing eye to eye to eye concerning long-term goals. The reversed Lovers also gives an air of materialism, making rash monetary decisions, and being irresponsible in other areas of your life. Consider focusing on avenues that make you feel whole rather than those that merely make you joyous.

The Two Of Swords Tarot Card Meaning

The Two of Swords is a card that affects most people now and again in their lives and when the time comes it is never a comfortable position to be in.

Nevertheless, sometimes the cycles of stasis inevitably become the reasons that we push ourselves so hard to progress. In this, though the season you are in is difficult, there is an added perspective of necessity in it as well. The Two of Swords is the card of being stuck in the middle and being afraid to move.

There are in fact so many options at your disposal at this moment that you fear making a move in case it is the wrong move, therefore, your hands are tied and you are stuck. Understandably this is not a position in which you would prefer to stay, so you desire with great strength to push out of it, but you don’t know where to start. You desire to have a new approach to life, but your emotions play a large role in your current circumstances and that is making it difficult for you to decide what you should do. You want to be the peacemaker, but you tend to do so at the expense of your own voice or opinions, thereby devaluing yourself. Your need for stability is now in conflict with your need to create change, thus creating the stalemate in that you find yourself in.

The image on the card in the Rider Waite Deck depicts a woman who is balancing two swords on her shoulders, representing the sharp edges she has placed herself against due to indecision. She is blindfolded representing the overall blindness to her life, and the situations that she has gotten herself into. Behind her are rocks in the sea, representing the ease of trapping those who are not allowed room for flexibility in their lives. The New Moon also shines down upon her which shows the tension in relationships, both friendship and other. She has a well-developed sense of balance, but her particular rhythm and ability to hone in on that have been compromised.

At this point in time, the Two of Swords is telling you that there is no confusion present, none that you are not already aware of. You are currently choosing to keep your eyes closed to possibilities so that you do not have to make a difficult choice. Sometimes these choices can come in the form of having to choose between friends, or getting involved in overly dramatic situations. Sometimes you are being asked a direct question and for the purpose of not hurting the person that you are involved with you are just choosing to refrain from a response, which is putting you AND your loved one in a frustrating position. In the attempts that you have made to save yourself from having to be hurt as a result of making a choice you have begun to close off your heart and this is producing deep levels of unhappiness.All of your actions at this time are being influenced not by your meditative and calm self, but by erratic and conflicted emotions, which is never a good position to be in for any long period of time.

Now is the time for you to consider a solution, there is an action that must be taken. You must give in and have faith in your intuition and in a connection with a higher source of energy to get you through this time. When you do this, you are allowing for your inner peace to be restored which will breathe life back into your veins. Consider the fact that you are unable to see your options, so your personal perspective may be skewed. Therefore in addition to focusing on communicating with your higher self, you must also seek help from others who are capable of assisting you objectively. If you do not know someone like this in your personal life, then a professional influence would be equally, if not more so, beneficial. The key is to gather information from varying perspectives so that you can weigh out the pros and the cons of your decision pragmatically. By listening to your emotions, you will know when the time has come to act. In so doing, you will find recognition in your path as well as the success of getting out of the pit of non-movement. While you process this card, consider what it is that you are avoiding, who are you having a hard time reconciling with and what decisions would you prefer to not know about or make?

The Two of Swords in Love

When the Two of Swords presents itself in your reading regarding love and relationships then you will need to make a decision. Right now you have put yourself in the position of consistent indecision which is tampering with your perspective. If you are single then in love this means that you are either avoiding pursuing something for fear of being shot down, or you are pursuing more than one person at a time and you are not appropriately giving your full attention to any one person. You need to choose. You cannot keep going this way. If you are in a relationship that is having problems, then the Two of Swords is showing you that now is the time for you to call those problems out and find actual solutions. The lack of momentum being built between you and your partner is harmful. Seek counseling if you cannot decide what to do on your own.

The Two of Swords in Health

The Two of Swords in Health represents a level of being split in half on how to appropriately care for yourself and others. There is a division in attention span; you are sacrificing too much to give to others who are ill, thereby creating the possibility of making yourself ill. You must find the balance between the two, and even if it is painful sometimes, you need to create time for yourself to process everything that has gone on. You do not want to create a level of sickness for yourself just so that you can get a break. That is not healthy.

The Two of Swords in Work and Wealth

The Two of Swords in Work and Wealth exemplifies the concept of being torn in two directions. What a situation the lady in the picture has found herself in! This is not a great place for anyone to be, especially in a work situation. It is as if she is defending herself, feeling isolated and blinded to the truth. I do like to think that the blindfold is more about meditating of the next move. If her arms move even for a moment she might fall over into the sea behind her. The problem with this card in a career context is that sudden moves may indicate that a person is trying to protect themselves. Either you or someone you work with is “between a rock and a hard place” there is not answer, but this person has two choices to make. In both choices, quiet contemplation is required and a difficult decision is required to move on. As her arms are crossed over the heart chakra it can symbolize a decision with the head rather than the heart. Currently, there is a possibility for you to work in two entirely different venues. You see for yourself a desire to move onto something that is more creatively stimulating, where you might be able to potentially help more people, but you are afraid of making the leap. Consider your options at this time. If making the leap is not safe, financially, then begin taking the steps toward making yourself financially ready for such an experience and that will get the ball rolling for you.

The Two Of Swords in Yes Or No Readings

It feels great to shift your gear away from reality when you draw the two of swords in a yes or no reading. It's telling you that it is a matter of personal preference whether to use two swords. A single sword is sufficient for some people, but others prefer the flexibility and versatility of two swords. Individual comfort level, experience, and skill are all important factors. Before deciding which way to go, it's important to practice both styles and determine which style suits your needs better. In the end, only you can decide whether two swords are right for you. In Yes Or No readings the card tells you the answer is “yes.”
 
The swords you use should be of good quality and well-maintained, no matter what route you choose. When blades are poorly made or poorly maintained, they will not perform or perform as well as those that are correctly made and properly maintained. For the best experience, make sure you understand how to use two swords simultaneously.
 
The decision to use two swords ultimately rests with you. The use of two swords for self-defense and target practice can be excellent with proper practice and maintenance. Practice with different styles and consider your individual needs before deciding.

Two of swords in the advice position of a spread

Two of swords in an advisory position suggests that you need to review a situation in it’s full. The blindfold that is worn on the picture of this card suggests that things are hidden. Things are hidden from your view and the advice is that you need to look past everything. In the advice position, the two of swords can also suggest that you are not letting anyone understand you right now. As the two swords are both heavy and the women holds these swords across her body it represents the “control” of emotions. The two of swords also represents being “closed off” in life and the choppy water behind her is a representation of the emotions that you feel.

This card often appears when one feels they are “walking on eggshells” this maybe a situation or a relationship that you are not sure will yield many problems. The advice here is to try to understand others better. The key phase in this tarot card is seeking your own inner direction and guidance in life. Try to remove your blindfold through meditation. Can you see all your options? For an advice position the two of swords can also suggest that one wants to see what is in front of them but they are blinded. You can only sit in a position for a limited amount of time (before the swords become too heavy) and you need to keep protecting what you have achieved. You need balance and insight to truly understand a problem in life.

Reversed Meaning - Two Of Swords

When the Two of Swords appears in your reading in the reversed position this is symbolic of a season of perpetual motion. You are making positive choices for yourself, you are not afraid to make a wrong decision because you have learned, ‘What does not kill you makes you stronger.’If you are still feeling stuck, just remember that the Two of Swords reversed is assisting you with the backing that you need to pursue bigger and better things. You do not have to stay stuck. Allow yourself the time that you need to relax, your affairs might be moving too quickly for you but do not let that get you down. Make sure that you do not make rash commitments to others before you have thought them through, primarily because your main focus needs to be on handling yourself and your affairs. The blindfold has been removed and you can see things clearly. Take actions that bring you positivity.

If you can play with them then you know that they will probably benefit your life experience overall.
