The Lovers is the ultimate love card in the Major Arcana and indicates a soulmate connection. The Lovers represent the highest form of love, a connection that goes deeper than anything physical, mental or emotional.

2. 2 cups
Another welcome card in a love reading, the 2 of Cups, is the Lovers equivalent in the Minor Arcana.
This card represents a loving connection that has been formed. Two people see a kinship in each other, which has the potential to grow into something more.
3. 10 of Pentacles
Of all 10, this is the one that predicts the best for a love relationship.
The 10 of Pentacles indicates stability. It’s the card you see for a couple who has grown old together or has the potential to grow old together. The 10 of Pentacles is even more welcome than the 10 of Cups. Pentacles represent the Earth, meaning they are stable, solid, and grounded.
The relationship is one of permanence, nothing fleeting. This card shows that a relationship has a solid foundation and cannot be broken easily.
4. 10 of cups
Another welcome card in a love reading, the 10 of Cups, represents the “happy ending.”
