The Lovers

The next card in our deck is the Lovers, representing Gemini!  Typically, the Lovers card depicts a naked man and woman standing beneath an angel, who represents both physical and emotional healing. The angel blesses the man and woman and reminds them of their union with the Divine. There is the snake from the garden of Eden behind the woman, and twelve flames behind the man (representing the 12 Zodiac signs perhaps?). The man looks to the woman, who watches the angel, showing the path of the conscious to the subconscious to the super-conscious, or from physical desire to emotional needs to spiritual concerns. Our individual decks at the shop vary: Bryce (Rust Belt Arcana) has a pair of White Ibises touching beaks (honestly, kind of terrifying), Kelley (Over the Garden Wall/Stitcher's Tarot) has Miss Langtree and Jimmy overseen by the Queen of the Clouds and two hands pierced by a knitting needle, Chelsea (Weird Cat Tarot) has blue cat being cuddled by a blue and yellow cat, with a pin
