Symbolism
A winged cupid with curly hair aims his bow and arrow as he floats above a cloud, a quiver full of arrows on his back. At his feet lie chains and a red ribbon, a sign that love binds through affection rather than force. The card stands for the feeling that arrives suddenly and strikes when least expected.
- Meaning
- Love puts the heart at the centre of the reading: a true feeling, an attraction or a bond that asks for attention. It is a card of warmth and openness that favours whatever is done out of affection. Next to another card, it softens it and gives it a tone of tenderness and desire.
- Love
- A new passion may appear, or an existing relationship gains fresh strength and enthusiasm. If someone is already in your life, it is a good moment to show what you feel.
- Work & money
- At work it favours what is done with enjoyment: you perform better when you love what you do and get along with the team. With money, it points to gains tied to a calling or a close partnership.
- As a person
- Someone in love or lovable, an affectionate person who awakens feelings.
- Advice
- Open your heart and let affection guide your next decision.
