Symbolism.
The Lovers stand beneath an angel, often identified as Archangel Raphael, whose radiant light blesses their union. Behind the woman rises the Tree of Knowledge, with the serpent coiled around it — symbolizing consciousness and choice. Behind the man stands the Tree of Life, representing vitality and divine connection. Together, they embody the union of body, mind, and spirit, as well as the eternal dance between free will and destiny.
This card isn’t only about romance — it speaks of alignment, choice, and union with one’s true path.
