Meaning: “Partnership or union blessed by God”

This is the recognition of love; this card predicts the point where you know you have met your soul mate. This card also indicates the instinctive knowledge, spirits reaching out at each other, meeting and bonding. You have met your soul mate; it predicts the union between two people as that of marriage. Sometimes relationships between lovers become stale, this card also predicts the strengthening of these bonds and happier times ahead. Another prediction is that of a partnership or enduring friendship.  In any event these relationships will be happy and beneficial to both parties. We can even go so far as to say, this bonding has been decreed or inspired by the Gods. It also predicts the joining of a partnership or union.

Upright:

Recognition of Love, union of two spirits, harmony, enduring friendship or any partnership based on trust, strengthening of existing relationships or partnerships.

The appearance of this card predicts your path with another person. So many times we see people joining, just to part ways in a few months. Here sometimes is the answer to your question, “yes”; you have met the right person. You even feel the contentment in your spirit. Your vibrations just match, you have the key. Describing the union of two people, the card doesn’t only indicate marriage but also describes your spirits being two, joining and becoming a glorious whole with happiness, joy and harmony. If you have been considering joining a partnership, go ahead. Trust is the key, here you received the lock. Without both fitting the other, either one is useless.

Reversed:

Premature partnership or union, false love, separation, disharmony.

You have or may enter into a relationship build on a shaky foundation from the start; your union is a love hate relationship and a bit stormy. The initial bonding was or will be there but as you get to know each other better, you may start disliking the person in your life, your business partner may be untrustworthy or just not conducive to your overall wellbeing. The time is not right to continue, rather cut your losses and walk away. The perfect partner is evading you at this time, keep on hoping, you will meet the person you can share your life with.
