06-The Lovers – Reversed Thoth Deck

Your Chosen Card – The Lovers Reversed Thoth Deck

When reversed, the Lovers card suggests that you may be rushing into a decision without careful consideration. Perhaps you have been swept off your feet by a new relationship and cannot think clearly. Love is blind, and Cupid’s arrows may tempt you to sow wild oats without considering the consequences. Are you behaving like a farmer who has not properly plowed his fields or adequately cultivated his crops? Without careful preparation, there cannot be a good harvest. With due deliberation, you can avoid hard times.

Keywords Reversed: Indecision, bad choices, doubt, temptation, lack of commitment, seduction, infidelity, betrayal, disappointments in love, injudicious use of one’s plow, failure to cultivate one’s fields properly, eating the forbidden fruit, being hoist with one’s own petard; ‘idle hands are the devil’s workshop.’
