Next in the series is the Lovers card. I have kept all the traditional symbology in this card, as it’s fairly straightforward as is... 

So we have Archangel Raphael bestowing health and creativity on the two nude figures who are in a state of oneness with nature; the sun representing the warmth of love and spiritual light.

The trees of life and fire symbolise fertility, growth and passion (with the serpent for temptation and the fruit of knowledge too, referencing Adam and Eve). The trees also represent the balance between love and lust. 

Traditionally a single mountain peak in the background separates the two figures, which is the division of the sexes and the obstacle that must be overcome for true union between two people.  Bearing in mind there are numerous hurdles in a successful relationship, I’ve used a range rather than a single mountain here!
