The Love Oracle

Your current love situation

Your current situation can be depicted as "Deliverance" transforming into "The Marrying Maiden".

In front of you lies "Thunder", representing movement, initiative, and action.
Behind you lies "Water" which transforms into "Lake". That means that danger and the unknown are being transformed into joy, pleasure, and attraction.
