The Lovers Tarot Card # 6 - our friends at Peekabuddha
should know all about this one!!
"One who has not only the four S's *, which are required in
every good lover, but even the whole alphabet; as for example .
. . Agreeable, Bountiful, Constant, Dutiful, Easy, Faithful, Gallant,
Honorable, Ingenious, Kind, Loyal, Mild, Noble, Officious, Prudent,
Quiet, Rich, Secret, True, Valiant, Wise; the X indeed, is too harsh
a letter to agree with him, but he is Young and Zealous."
Miguel de Cervantes
Tarot Lovers encompass every form of love from self-love to agape
to Eros, and provide a locus as well. Passion, in this card, is
expended not only in cravings of the flesh, but in the arts and
the joys of craftsmanship and skill.

The physical sexuality lessons of The Lovers are tempered by the
incorporation of the many facets of relationship. Balance is sought
in moderation and rectitude.
The three figures on the card represent conscious energy, subconscious
energy, and superconscious energy. The masculine conscious energy
stands before the Tree of Life replete with twelve flames: the flames
represent the twelve signs of the zodiac and the will found within
the expressions of personality arising from the birth sign.
The female subconscious stands before the Tree of Knowledge upon
which hangs the fruits of receptiveness and fertility, not only
physical receptiveness and fertility, but also spiritual, emotional,
and intellectual productivity.
The Archangel Raphael represents the ultimate goal of spiritual
and intellectual perception, acumen, flair, and most importantly,
discrimination. Raphael, arising from the Hebrew tradition, is the
angel of healing, restoration, and reparation. The name Raphael
is translated as "God has healed".
