The Lovers

:For The Lovers, the Socratic dialogue attributed to Plato, see Rival Lovers.

Interpretation

The Lovers represents relationships and choices. Its appearance in a spread indicates some decision about an existing relationship, a temptation of the heart, or a choice of potential partners. Often an aspect of the querant's life will have to be sacrificed; a bachelor(ette)'s lifestyle may be sacrificed and a relationship gained (or vice versa), or one potential partner may be chosen while another is turned down. Whatever the choice, it should not be made lightly, as the ramifications will be lasting.

A good way of looking at this choice is to consider a person with good looks but bad personality, and an extremlly ugly person with a wonderful personality. If the querant must spend the rest of thier life with one of them ... This is the choice of the lovers.
