    Google Authenticator

    So I am not alone ! But this is the only place that has suggested that to do so requires a nasty google add on and a smart phone. That is something I will never install. My bank uses a card reader or my email so do most places; any that don't send a code to my brick phone - even the NHS, whose 2FA is a NIGHTMARE. But that just shows that it doesn't take a smartphone to generate a code. The CODES can be set at the "demander's" end. ETA and crumbs - it snoops big time: https://uk.pcmag.com/security/154426/google-authenticator

    Google Authenticator

    Reading through the security and privacy page, the wording is not very clear (we can't change that) Adding Google Authenticator is only if you want to use 2 Factor Authentication (2FA) for your account. It's an additional security layer that most sites now provide. If you don't have it on, we can still send a password reset or sort it out if you get locked out. The wording is sort of true, it does verify your identity as an additional measure but you really need a smartphone to generate codes for it. It's not compulsory, each account has an email we can send a reset to. It's also confusing language, because the forum doesn't need to verify your identity if there is a problem logging in. It's just an additional feature, use if you want, or don't if you don't 🙂

    Let’s Talk about The Lovers

    What conflicts are occurring within you, and how are you balancing them (as much as possible) before and in the process of moving forward? What are the considerations you're taking into account? i.e. pros/cons and higher elements of self? What is your best option for balanced growth?

    I'm back so I guess I should re-introduce myself.

    As you know, I still just have just one day---today---to work on like everyone else. Thank you, though. 🥰 Thank you! My life has been a challenge ever since I was born, when the doctor had had too much to drink and failed to show up. Nuns delivered me in his absence. LOL

    Let’s Talk about The Lovers

    For me, the Lovers is about alignment. It's about acknowledging your beliefs and values as a person. The choice aspect is based on your values. When we meet someone, do we have a mutual connection? Do they also like picnics in the park, Labubu dolls and French food? Or maybe they are completely different to you and your interests but you share the same values. Often when we are dating, we meet people with similar and different interests but the thing that binds us are our shared values. I could date someone who was completely opposite me but not if they didn't at least respect my interest in tarot and divination. The Angel blesses the union that there is harmony and a deep connection between the people. There is a mutual harmony between the people, they align with you. Apart from love, it is making choices which align with your values. A friend of mine moved cities to get a job with a brand they loved because it aligned with their personal values. They worked their way up in this brand over time but they wanted to get into the company because they aligned with it. There is also a gratification with the card, doing something you love and feel passionate about. In the RWS card, we have the story of Adam and Eve, with the tree with the forbidden fruit behind her. We can see the snake tempting them in the tree. They are a blessed couple (by the Angel above), in the Garden of Eden. They have everything they want to live in this garden and the Angel in the cloud gives earthly desires. Behind her is the Tree of Knowledge and behind him is the burning Tree of life. So will they take the temptation? The Tree of Knowledge offers knowledge and wisdom but by eating the apples they will lose their innocence that they just serve under God. By taking from the Tree of Life, they will get eternal life. In the story (spoiler alert) they eat the apples and lose their innocence and discover shame at their nakedness in the garden. They also can decide what is right and wrong themselves, rather than God deciding this and this leads to them being severely punished by God for their disobedience. Ultimately, this is a moral crossroads which can come up with this card. It represents a duality, what should you do ethically and morally? This goes back to what aligns with you. How should you proceed? Important choices are never easy. I think a final part of this card and features in many historic versions, is the choice between a short-term decision or long term. One advice from this card is not to go for short-term temptations or gratification but for something that will pay off in the long term, even if you have to wait for it. If you are getting it repeatedly, I would look at choices you need to make and what aligns you.

    Let’s Talk about The Lovers

    My first thought when receiving The Lovers in a reading is 'commitment.' Not only making a choice (sometimes a difficult one, and usually an ethical one) but then committing yourself to it. When it comes to a love affair, The Lovers isn't the start of it. It's not about attraction, but about commitment. It depicts a result of the love affair—if you choose to stay together forever, reject all others, and/or get married, etc. I would also expect this card to appear if the querent was in the process of adopting a child, or agreeing to become the full-time carer for an elderly parent, etc. These kinds of issues may often appear with The Lovers card. In other less personal spheres that involve choices, The Lovers card can also pop up. Unless the reading is very lightweight ...shall I order the chocolate ice cream or the strawberry ice cream? ...this card usually indicates a weighty matter that includes the intention of following through on whatever you are agreeing to. I have a couple of card decks that reflect this notion. Both the Anna K Tarot and The Everyday Enchantment Tarot depict an elderly couple on The Lovers card, implying the commitment they made to each other a long time ago. First attraction or compatibility, I reckon, are best embodied in the Two of Cups or similar cards.

    Wow! Thanks for all the welcome back posts! I'm glad I'm welcome! 😅I'm such a blabbermouth that sometimes I think I'm probably just annoying. So much has happened while I've been gone that it seems like it's been an eternity in some ways. The broken hip was a major event and one that I never hope to have to endure again. My phone was on the charger across the room and I was home alone, not near any window or door, so I had to figure out how to get help if I didn't want to sit there on the floor all night. I had no idea when anyone would come within yelling distance. I couldn't move because the pain was agonizing if I tried to even scoot an inch at a time. I finally got ahold of the broom and that reached over to the phone so I dragged the phone off onto the floor and then dragged it within reach. I texted my daughter and told her to call 911 because I thought I'd broken my hip. My son, two doors down from me, came over to help carry me to the ambulance, bless his heart. Normally I'm not fond of being put to sleep for surgery, but in this case, I couldn't wait. I was in so much pain I can't even describe it. I live 50 miles from the nearest hospital and that's an hour when driving so I had to try not to cry and beg for pain relief like a big baby for the whole ambulance ride. After the ambulance ride and the surgery, then I had to go to a rehab place for two weeks. Then had to have occupational and physical therapy at home for a couple weeks. As of now, I'm pretty much back to normal but not as self-sufficient as I used to be.

    @Ferrea Thank you for the link, there where som pretty back sides of the playing cards. In the bottom of the page there where som tarot decks also, but not any pictures to my taste. No, it´s not for inspiration. I´m just curious to see what pictures they have used on tarot decks. Some decks have very beautiful and others have boring or ugly backsides. But I found something else and interesting: https://www.wopc.co.uk/explore/keyword/tarot/

    Let’s Talk about The Lovers

    May I—in proper Gemini fashion—bounce off your thoughts some of my own? The word that first comes to mind when I see The Lovers is usually ambivalence, as in “the coexistence of opposing attitudes or feelings (such as love and hate) toward a person, object, or idea.” [wiki] And this can go in different directions. It can describe difficulty making a decision; it can describe the attraction we feel toward someone or something that represents both what we desire and what we despise. In that sense, The Lovers can also allude to self-love and the need to integrate those parts of ourselves that we tend to project. The Lovers describe the eternal dance around ourselves and each other—the push and pull, the never-ending thesis–antithesis–synthesis process, the realisation that we are separate and always on the lookout for completion. And there is certainly more to it!
