Valentine’s Day has just drifted past, leaving me pondering a timeless question: What is love? A quiet voice within me answers, “Love is a force as ancient as the universe itself, a sacred thread weaving through every soul, transcending time, culture, and belief.” As a Tarot reader, I witness love reflected in the cards—the Lovers symbolizing choices of the heart, the Two of Cups representing mutual connection, and the Empress nurturing with boundless, unconditional care. Love isn’t just an emotion; it’s a profound spiritual energy that binds us to the divine, to each other, and to our truest selves.
The Ace of Cups often appears in my readings. It symbolizes love as an overflowing vessel—an infinite, divine source. When I draw this card for a client, I remind them that love isn’t confined to romance or familial bonds. It is the very essence of life itself, flowing through our words, actions, and intentions.
There’s always a moment in a reading when a seeker yearns for reassurance—a sign they are not alone. This is when The Star often graces us, whispering hope and divine connection. Love, in its purest form, is a bridge to the universe, to God, or to whatever higher power guides us. It’s the unseen embrace that carries us through our darkest nights.
The Queen of Cups beautifully teaches us about love without conditions—pure, unwavering acceptance. True love sees others as they are and embraces them wholeheartedly. Imagine a child proudly presenting a crooked drawing; we don’t critique the uneven lines but cherish the heartfelt effort. That’s the essence of love—pure, unfiltered acceptance.
The healing power of love is undeniable. When the Three of Swords appears reversed, it speaks of mended hearts and emotional renewal. Whether through a kind word, a forgiving embrace, or silent support, love has the transformative power to restore us. In moments of despair, love lifts us, gently whispering, “You are whole, even in your brokenness.”
My dear readers, let love be your guiding light. Whether through Tarot, meditation, or simple acts of kindness, embrace its infinite energy. Love isn’t just an experience; it’s a sacred path to spiritual awakening.
“Love is the bridge between you and everything.” – Rumi
