Booklet Text
The Lovers is typically one of the most favored cards for people to get, because most people for some reason wish for fairy tale romance more than any other thing. What they fail to realize is that they can become a person who is not only worthy of getting what they want, but capable of going after the type of person they want without having to settle. Most people are lazy, and they just expect the universe or fate to drop the perfect person into their laps. The Lovers isn’t about getting that person handed to you on a silver platter. It’s about the expanded potential for meeting or rekindling that romantic atmosphere that most of us end up either taking for granted or blowing anyways. So utilize the opportunity and give yourself better odds by not being irresponsible when it comes to relationships. Improve yourself, respect yourself. Those two things will help you land who you want. Don’t be lazy. Do not wait for Prince Charming, go out and find him. And be someone who stands out from the crowd.
