Just as fire, associated with the preceding suit of staves, burns us to take action in our lives, arrows prick our consciousness into awakening. In The Lover’s Path Tarot, the suit of arrows is associated with Cupid and Psyche, represented upon Awakening (XIX), the twentieth of the twenty-two major arcana cards. The myth of Cupid and Psyche depicts how love grants wisdom. Love transforms us, just as Cupid’s magical arrows transforms all who are struck by them.
MEANINGS: Introspection. Healing. Need time to heal or rest. Peace after emotional disappointment. Detachment from the everyday world to regain balance. Recuperation from stessful situations.
