Many of today's tarot card sets explore modern relationship dynamics. The typical questions like "Does he/she love me?" are asked by love-tortured individuals, who cannot for the life of them, analyze a first date situation correctly. If they could, then they would tend to have more than one date with a potential mate, instead of many disastrous first dates with many different individuals.

Seeking the results of a tarot card reading will provide different, if not better results, over simply picking petals off of innocent wildflowers. Those poor wildflowers, so pretty to look at, so bad at predicting whether cupid's arrow will yield a duo deeply in love. If more tarot card readings are sought for love advice, then love struck, starry-eyed individuals will be able to pick wildflowers for their potential mates!

In a tarot card reading for potential couples, we see two individuals pictured as if they were under the rule of another. Following suit would be a card depicting characters featured in the Minor Arcana. Each member of the potential relationship, as well as the unity itself, will be depicted in the reading.

In a typical reading, the couple mix the cards up together. Afterwards, the card reader will arrange the cards on a special framework. The couple will ask questions and each question can yield up to three answers.

One partner of the couple may be depicted as the dominating or controlling half of the relationship. This could be the partner of the relationship who is stronger and deemed a caretaker. The other person may be depicted as emotional. This person may be the one offering comfort in times of distress. Maybe this person is also calm, easy going, caring, empathetic, and compassionate. Sometimes the person representing this half of the relationship can also be seen as a pushover. It can be interpreted in a tarot card reading that the dominating half takes advantage of the emotional half in the relationship.

The relationship in the reading can be seen as something exotic for the dominating partner. The more emotional partner might see the whole of the relationship as simply being lackluster. These results might indicate that one partner of the relationship may have to work harder to achieve the level of excitement desired. The other half of the relationship might be represented as needy, requiring more of a commitment before any sparks will be ignited. Possibly the relationship will be plagued with problems. It depends on how the meanings of the cards in the reading are interpreted, by not only the card reader, but both halves of relationship also.

If the meaning of the relationship does depict one half desiring eroticism and one half desiring commitment, there is hope for the potential couple. The partner needing excitement is going to have to compromise by finding his source or outlet in different ways. This partner is going to want spontaneity, and ecstasy. They will be in a positive mode. Love to this partner will be something romantic, cherished, a feeling that falls into place when it's magic appears. As for the other partner, they will have to compromise also. They will have to learn to loosen up. This partner will have to demonstrate that they are not uptight, that they can let down their guard so true emotions can run freely.

All in all, the conflict can be resolved if it actually occurs in the first place. Partner number one will need to be more vocal about their hopes and dreams. It wouldn't hurt for this person to also express their affection and adoration for their mate more often, and in a sincere fashion. The other partner will in turn learn to feel more secure about their status in the relationship. This will lead to increased trust, and this partner will be more open to spontaneity because they are receiving the affection they require more often from their mate. If these conditions are met, then the relationship has a greater chance to survive. All it needs to flourish is communication and compromise.
