My intentions when I went to bed last night were to jump back in - hard- to marketing my coaching program.

I was going to hit the ground running, prioritize work, and get shit done.

And then I drew this morning's card.

And, as often happens when I pull a card or do a reading, it feels right, even though it seems like it's the opposite direction of where my intentions were pushing me.

The Lovers

​

This card is pure romance, sensuality, and optimism.

The lovers are not looking for love, they are letting themselves fall into love, and letting the rest of the world fall away for a while.

This, to me, sometimes feels stupid. Or scary.

If I let myself lean *this far* into love, won't everything else fall apart? Won't I fall behind?

Aren't I supposed to be afraid and stressed and struggling like everyone else seems to be?

"No". The lovers' card says. "This is the whole point of everything. It's time for you to reconnect with the joy and love that is both your truest essence and the *only* medicine for the disconnection you've been feeling."

Journal prompts:

• What would leaning in to self-love look like this week?
• In what ways would it feel delightful to show love to others this week?
• Who do you love that might not know how much you love them? How can you show them or tell them this week?

Point of clarification: For my fellow recovering-people-pleasers, I think it's important to not the at the kind of Love this card is about is not dutiful love. It is warm, bouncy, golden-retriever type love. For the purposes of these prompts, and this reading, ignore areas of "love" where it feels at all stressful, uncomfortable, or entangled. Go for the things and people that you feel warm, stupid, unconditional love for.

And, as always, please remember that I read intuitively (which means I trust that the guides who are working with me know what card to show me to get the message across, and I don't need to consult a reference manual etc.) so if you are interested in learning more about the traditionally assigned meaning of The Lovers card, click here.
