This is for the couples out there.
Influence from the Past: Three of Chalices
The third wheel between you and that special someone made your relationship possible. Although times were rough with that person around, the third finally found personal joy elsewhere. You and your loved one only meet the third as a friend now. However, expect lasting influence to grow from a small seed of an idea.
Influence Over Today: The High Priestess
What is your loved one doing when you’re not around? Secrets draped in secrets seem to keep you away from the truth. Every time you get a fix on one secret, you learn just enough of another secret to destroy everything you thought you knew. Yet, even those secrets have secrets. It doesn’t really get in the way of your romance. Not that much. At least it didn’t used to.
Your Near Future: The Knave of Pentacles
Money. Maybe your lover has been into drugs, liquor, or gambling. Maybe it was a thousand micropayments to some online game. You will eventually learn that your Third Wheel ran away to escape your lover’s addiction, yet played a part in forming the addiction.
Ultimately, the secrets all lead to money. By the time you figure it out your credit cards will be maxed out. Your lover will have given your phone number to a host of creditors. The repo man is on your front lawn and a loan shark’s goon is waiting across the street for a private chat after your car gets towed off.
As the crowbar comes down and you wonder why you fell for the words “I love you,” please understand that you will never function physically as a normal human being again.
