Astrology and tarot for love questions

Love questions split three ways, and Lumia has a reading for each. “How do I love, and why does this keep happening” is a chart question. “How do the two of us fit” is a compatibility question. “This person, this week, what do I do” is a tarot question. The chart readings work from your full birth chart, not just your Sun sign.

How you love: the birth chart

Venus by sign and house is what attracts you and how you show it. The Moon is what you need to feel safe with someone, which is often not what attracts you, and the gap between the two is the pattern most people recognise in their history. The seventh house and its ruler describe the partner you look for and how you commit; Mars is desire and conflict. The Birth Blueprint reads these together and says the practical thing: what you do at the start, what you do when it gets hard, and what actually works for you. It’s free, with the full reading.

How two of you fit: compatibility

Add the other person’s birth details and Lumia reads both BaZi charts: whether their elements supply what yours is short of or add to what you already have too much of, and where your day branches combine or clash. Then today between you: a day that favours one of you, a day to decide together, a day to give each other room. Compatibility readings.

This person, this question: tarot

For the specific situation (should I text, is this going anywhere, what’s in the way), ask the cards. Yes or No gives a clear answer with the reason. Three cards show where it’s been, where it is and where it’s going. Seven give the whole thing: you, the situation, the challenge, the past, what’s coming, the advice, the outcome. Pair it with what your chart says about how you love, and you know what the answer means for you. Love tarot.

When: transits

Venus transits, the Moon through your seventh house, Saturn on your Venus: these are the seasons of love arriving, love being tested and love ending. Lumia’s transit reading names the one you’re in. Timing.

A worked example

“Why do I always end up with people who need fixing?” The chart: Venus in Pisces in the sixth house, attraction to the wounded expressed as service, and a Capricorn Moon that needs steadiness and never gets it from them. The reading names the gap, says what you actually need, and shows how to tell in the first month whether this one is the pattern again. That’s what a love reading is for.

Frequently asked questions

What does my birth chart say about love?

Venus is what you want and how you show affection. The Moon is what you need to feel safe. The seventh house and its ruler are what you look for in a partner and how you commit. Mars is desire and how you fight. Lumia's Birth Blueprint reads them together and writes the love section in plain terms: the pattern you repeat, and what actually works for you.

Can tarot tell me how someone feels about me?

It answers the question you ask about the situation (is this going somewhere, should I reach out, what's in the way) with the reason. Lumia doesn't pretend to read another person's mind. It reads the situation from your side and says what to do.

Is compatibility the same as a love reading?

No. A love reading is about you, from your chart. Compatibility is about two people: it reads both BaZi charts against each other and includes what the current day does to the pair.
