Description
The Lovers represents those forces that bring people together in interpersonal relationships. These relationships are not always physical or romantic, as the Lovers also works within ideas, movements, events, and groups. The Lovers also confronts those personal beliefs (as opposed to communal beliefs from the Hierophant) that shape their values and how they will make the important choices in the world. It's easy for the Lovers to get bogged down when their choices take them further away from who they want to be, and there are those who might find The Lover shallow or concerned with unimportant things.

They may be unable to make those important decisions in their lives altogether, if their choices are not /merely/ poor ones, and often do not know what it is they really want. Their personal values, so strong Upright, are weak or even missing, as far as anyone else can see.
