The kind that moves you to tears?
Is it the Lovers card?
I'm in love with my higher-dimensional lover, and I wonder sometimes if it's just I'm addicted to the feeling of love, or if I really do love them.
I guess one could say the Lovers card in it’s superficial interpretations. However it’s true meaning is indicating a harmonious, honest relationship between the conscious and subconscious portions of mind. The Lovers veil nothing from each other. They are both equals (ignorant interpretations of the myth have placed women as inferior to men, and this is wrong on so many levels). Each allows the other the freedom to operate in its appropriate sphere of activity. Discrimination is a central idea of Key 6.
This harmony of Adam and Eve, then, allow one to become the recipient of Superconscious guidance, pictured in Key 6 by the Angel above the lovers. The Angel is our True Self. The guidance is received through the agency of subconsciousness which is then related back to self consciousness, the man. The man looks toward the woman, and the woman looks towards the Angel, and the angel sheds its influence impartially upon both of them.
So one could take the lessons from this card and apply it to loving relationships with others. How to be a good lovers, Key 6 can teach us.
Going back to the Ra Material, the Lovers is the Transformation of Mind. A transformation indeed occurs when this balance and harmony is achieved because then one is being guided by his Higher Self. The Keys follow a sequence and the result of this transformation is the Chariot, the Great Way of Mind.
That's fascinating because transformation has really been on my mind lately. I wonder what's transformation of the body.
