It's a truth communicated and realized, releasing the tension of the 2 of swords, which tends to show someone sitting on the fence about something, in the dark about something, or simply trying to stay neutral. The 3 shows that sword coming down in the middle between the 2 and defining things once and for all. It can often be a rather harsh truth or reality that comes to the fore, but not always. <BR/><BR/>The Lovers being about choice regarding commitment, the combination, rather than show what we might think to be the obvious heartbreak or one partner telling another they've just had an affair (which could be), may show someone making a final decision about a commitment of the heart. One's heart is already there with the Lovers. The 3 of swords leaves no doubt the mind has determined the course. For better or for worse, whether you choose to commit or not, you've finally made a decision of the mind.Ginny Claytonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03759784851970527096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30754098.post-57340653518117785952008-06-28T18:32:00.000-04:002008-06-28T18:32:00.000-04:00A recent reading of mine for myself had the Lovers...A recent reading of mine for myself had the Lovers card followed immediately by the 3 of swords. The layout positions were not well defined unfortunately as I was experimenting at the time. Any thoughts on that card combination?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07011684096900797598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30754098.post-11916437630321788902008-06-04T14:44:00.000-04:002008-06-04T14:44:00.000-04:00Ginny!

Choose whom you love, what you love, where you love or simply choose FOR love. :) It's a brilliant card as 6 is the number of blessing and also the number of "man". It speaks of human love that is divinely guided or inspired. There is a reason, too, that Waite's Devil mimics this card as 15 reduces to 6. Love is unselfish and kind and generous. In the clutches obsession and greed, love becomes a mockery of itself.Ginny Claytonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03759784851970527096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30754098.post-71423819164288847392008-04-08T14:35:00.000-04:002008-04-08T14:35:00.000-04:00Hi Ginny,Thought I'd just share what your excellen...Hi Ginny,<BR/><BR/>Thought I'd just share what your excellent post on VI shook out of the trees for me. How to be brief ... OK, the idea of following one's heart, yes, I've always seen that as a possibility in The Lovers, as well as there being a choice of some sort. But for some reason it never hit me that in some readings -- or as in my life at the current time -- the message is "choose love." I.e, I can choose to stay in this difficult emotional space or I can choose to be loving (of others, of myself). <BR/><BR/>Thanks!Roswilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15669275952943509399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30754098.post-52999733747881452512008-04-08T11:13:00.000-04:002008-04-08T11:13:00.000-04:00I just found your blog, and I'm thrilled!
