Dear Dorothy,

According to the Two of Cups, your main focus for this year should be on your marriage -- or relationship with a significant other.  I am assuming there is a significant other in your life, but if that's not the case, then the Two of Cups still emphasizes that this is your most important area of focus -- to have someone to share love with and to enjoy companionship with that special someone.

Even if you are already in a fulfilling relationship, the Two of Cups reminds you of how special love is, and you are encouraged to spend quality time with the one you love.  This card suggests that a relationship can grow even stronger than ever before for continued harmony.  If and when minor disputes crop up, settle them quickly so that time spent can be on happy and cherished memories rather than bickering.

There is a certain purity as well as excitement when a relationship is brand new.  Such a feeling tends to get lost as partners get caught up in their daily routines and the work-a-day world.  The Two of Cups suggest for you and your significant other to take a vacation together sometime this year by yourselves -- even if it has to be a short one -- and to go on outings alone together . . . without the distraction of others tagging along.  Find the time to recapture some of the excitement you felt when the relationship was new . . . and regain some of the quality of that original "uncomplicated" time of togetherness.

The Two of Cups energy can bring a meaningful rapport with your special someone.  Such communication and love will allow each of you to feel more complete and to recapture yourselves as the couple you are.  When two people are open to the feelings of each other, a special and significant energy flows between them, and they are able to achieve and experience more together than they could separately.

This card's energy is truly a beautiful blessing, Dorothy . . . and it can be yours :-)

Love, Light, and Happiness,

Velvet Angel
