The Lovers Tarot Meaning and Interpretation

The Lovers Reversed Tarot Meaning

The Lovers reversed, continues to serve as a mostly positive omen, especially in the realm of romantic relationships. However, its significance extends far beyond just love between partners; it encompasses all types of relationships including friendships, familial bonds, and even professional connections.

General

When The Lovers reversed appears, it’s very likely that you are feeling ambivalent about a relationship or situation in your life. You must pay attention to what your gut is telling you and to try to analyze and get clear about what this is and why. Your feelings and emotions are there for a reason. Don’t ignore them.

Love

Even in reversal this card is an excellent omen for your love life in coming days. The reversal in this context simply weakens but only slightly the overall very positive energies for love coming for you, and it may indicate a slight delay in how soon you will be feeling much better about your love life in general. Still, think positively. This is a great time to get out and meet people.

Whether you are already in a relationship or still looking for one doesn’t matter. Either way The Lovers reversed is still a good card.

Money and Finances

When The Lovers card appears in reverse, it can indicate that you are paying far too much attention to your love life and far too little attention to other important things, including friendships, finances, and the rest of your personal life.

If you need help, ask for it. Letting finances get out of control is a mistake no matter what else is going on in your life. Don’t lose sight of the things that you must attend to, no matter how much you feel that you are walking on air.

Work and Career

When this tarot card appears in reverse, you may be finding yourself feeling a powerful attraction to someone that you work with. This is not a bad thing; however, the reversal does indicate that you should be more than usually cautious with mixing business and pleasure.

Be sure that you know what you’re getting into. Could you lose your job as a result? Can you afford that? Don’t be arrogant and make sure you consider worst-case scenarios before you leap.

Health

If you are struggling with your health now, the appearance of The Lovers card in reverse can indicate that your own care and concern for yourself and your body is critical now.

Try to find it in yourself to love your body, even if it hurts you, even if it has let you down. It still has served you in many positive ways and likely still does. If you need help and support for this process reach out. Your self-esteem and self-care is paramount now.

Spirituality

The appearance of The Lovers reversed when related to questions of spirituality can indicate that if you are not careful, you may find yourself falling in love with someone who is meant to be a teacher, pastor, or instructor.

Try to be circumspect about such feelings if they should arise. Sometimes love in such contexts can actually interfere with and prevent learning from your teacher all that they have to offer.

If a teacher or mentor is claiming to be in love with you, think long and carefully before embarking on a relationship with such a person. They could be abusing a position of trust. Caution is needed here.
