The Lovers
The card reveals its meaning.
The man is overcome by the beauty of the Lady and kneels before her. For her part, the lady seems to be pleased at her effect on the man. The winged youth represents the offspring of the union of the lovers. He shoots an arrow from a future in which he exists into a past in which he does not.
The central mystery of the card is the crown through which the cherub shoots the arrow. Given the man's posture, we can reasonably assume that political power is shifting to the woman. If she uses her newly won power to care for her future children, well and good. If she governs out of the desire to dominate her lover, not so good.
The world you and I inhabit has been nearly destroyed through the power play of masculine rivalry and domination. The nuclear arms race is the most obvious and dangerous example of this attempt at global oneupmanship.
Politically speaking, if the woman takes the crown out of her love for her future children, humankind just might survive. Otherwise, we and all the beauty of the natural order are doomed to burn.
The choice belongs to all of us, and the indeterminacy of your personal ascent or descent is universal.
