The Lovers from the Tarot Genoves Deck

Card Meaning When Upright

Wise Dispositions, Proof, Trials Surmounted;

Card Description

This is usually described as representing Man between Vice and Virtue, while a winged genius threatens Vice with his dart. But I am rather inclined to the opinion that it represents the Qabalistical Microprosopus between Binah and Malkuth (seemy Kabbalah Unveiled), while the figure above shows the Influence descending from Kether. It is usually considered to mean Proof or Trial; but I am inclined to suggest Wise Disposition as its signification.

This is Before You

It shows the influence that is coming into action and will operate in the near future.

(Two sacks or weights are attached to his armpits.) He symbolises Sacrifice.

Your House

Your environment and the tendencies at work therein which have an effect on the matter €”for instance, your position in life, the influence of immediate friends, and so forth.
