Tarot Card Love Readings
TL;DRWhat is the meaning of the Tower in a love reading? What about the Lovers in a love reading? Getting a tarot reading to find out what is going on in your love life will give answers about where your romantic life is headed and can help put into perspective whatever your current relationship’s problems may be. Join Mysticsense exploring what some of the cards from the Major and Minor Arcana are telling us about love and unlock the secrets of your own love life!

One of the main topics people consult their psychics about are matters of the heart. What is going on in love, and where are relationships heading? People who recently suffered heartbreaks will want to know when they can love again, or if there is a chance of getting back together. A tarot reading can provide clarity about these things and more. 

While each reader interprets cards their own way, there are basic classic meanings that can be ascribed to each card. The Empress in a love reading will mean something different than the Nine of Wands in a love reading. Whereas the Hermit card reversed can be telling you to go within and spend time with yourself, the Hermit card in a love reading can be telling you to avoid a relationship with somebody you are asking about.

Cards like the Empress love reading meaning is similar to what it means in most other readings, and the relationship the cards have to one another in a reading further explains things. The reversed meaning of the cards is usually the opposite of the upright meaning, and if reading for yourself doesn’t give all the answers you are looking for, consulting your psychic will help you get the most out of the messages the cards are sending. To learn more about what some cards in a love reading are telling you, read on!

The Major Arcana Love Reading

The Major Arcana Love Reading

It is assumed that the “Arcana love reading” can only mean a love reading with Major Arcana cards. Thankfully, both Major and Minor Arcana cards are used for love readings, and the messages are no less powerful with one than the other. If you do prefer to use Major Arcana cards only for love readings, that’s okay. Just don’t think Minor Arcana cards hold no answers.

The Fool in a Love Reading

The Fool in a Love Reading

If you get the Fool in a love reading, it is advising you to take a leap of faith and set forth on a journey of love! If you have asked about an individual, then yes, give them a chance! If you are asking about love in general, you are being advised to open yourself to love, and keep a lookout for prospective lovers!

The Empress Love Reading

The Empress Love Reading

The Empress represents fruitfulness, hearth and home, and possibilities for all things to come to pass. In a love reading this card is telling you opportunities for love are abundant, and you will have plenty of lovers to choose from or even ONE great love to enjoy soon!

The Hermit in a Love Reading

The Hermit in a Love Reading

This is indicating you should pull back and observe. You can weigh options or spend a time with no romantic relationships for a time. If you are healing from heartbreak, take as much time as you need to go within, and if somebody is in hot pursuit, this card is telling you that you are going to be just fine without them.

The Tower Love Reading

The Tower Love Reading

In any reading, the Tower portends major disaster that is groundbreaking and life changing. This isn’t going to be fun for everybody, and there is nothing you can do to prevent it. Remember though, pieces of your life can be picked up and mended no matter what goes wrong. Have faith in your ability to survive and thrive no matter what.

The World Love Reading

The World Love Reading

The World card in a love reading is one of the best ones to get! It means you will have a partner who creates a happy world of love with you and that you both balance and satisfy one another. It will seem like “you have it all” together because you do! If they are not in your life yet, the card is telling you they will be, so watch and wait!

The Moon Love Reading

The Moon Love Reading

What does a Moon card mean in a love reading? The Moon card in a love reading is all about emotions. It advises not to let overblown emotions get the better of you. Thinking with your heart is very important, but this has to be balanced with thinking with your head. Uncertainties, and worrying about all the little “what if’s” and what could go wrong can set us up to compromise relationships, and also cause us to stay in bad relationships because we are afraid to be single. Take a breath, objectively look at your emotions right now, and don’t make any split second decisions based on them.

The Sun Love Reading

The Sun Love Reading

The Sun card in a love reading means happiness and a great relationship. The Sun card represents success and being at the pinnacle of your persona power. If you are happy being single, don’t let anybody tell you that you can’t be. If you are in a relationship, this card is telling you this is a great relationship, and to keep moving forward with it. If you are single and open to romance, it’s coming, and it’s going to be great!

The Lovers Card Love Reading

This is not a fun card to draw in a love reading because it means you feel stuck by your love life.

The Magician Love Reading

The Minor Arcana Love Reading

The Minor Arcana Love Reading

There are four suits in the Minor Arcana and those are Cups, Coins or Pentacles, Swords, and Wands. Each suit has a general meaning. Cups generally discuss feelings and relationships, so more emphasis will be on their meanings in love readings in this discussion. Swords deal with conflicts and obstacles and can help identify what sorts of problems or complications arise in a love relationship. Coins or Pentacles represent worldly things like wealth and possessions, but they correspond to all forms of success, not just monetary ones. They can indicate success in careers and relationships as well. Wands discuss action and things you will be creating. In a love reading this could address what things you will create to make relationships happen and also what things you and your lover create together.

Reading Playing Cards for Love

While each reader has their own style of reading, and preference of which deck to use, some use ordinary playing cards to give readings! Some readers who use playing cards for divination use each of the suits to substitute for Minor Arcana cards. The suits change but meanings are the same. Clubs become Wands, Hearts are Cups, Spades substitute for Swords, and Diamonds represent Pentacles or Coins. Aces stay as Aces, and Jacks become Pages or Knights. Kings and Queens remain as such, and joker or wild cards are removed for these readings. These are read upright and reversed, and the only thing that is different is there are no cards to represent the Major Arcana using this deck.

Besides this, some readers pay attention to whether there are more red, the lighter color, or black, the darker color in the reading. Lighter colors represent more happy things, and black represents more sadness or misfortune. For other readers, paying attention to what suit of card is next to the card they are reading is necessary. For example, a Spade to the right of another can indicate misfortune, while two Hearts side by side indicate happiness and love.

Some readers use playing cards to give their readings exclusively, while others get a cheap deck of playing cards to use for readings while they are saving money for a more costly tarot card deck. Remember, there is no ONE right way to use cards for divination, and you have to allow your own intuition to decide what tools and style of reading is best for you.
