Meaning of Solitude in Cupid’s Oracle of Love

Card no. 43

Life offers us the chance to be able to share as 2 a beautiful love story, which is certainly the foundation of any destiny. But it also sometimes forces us to live on our own a moment of isolation, an emotional solitude of greater or lesser length, which is going to push us into a deep reflection. Thus, when a love story ends, after the moments of joy, of pleasure and of passion experienced in fusion with one’s partner, there generally come great moments of solitude, which are sometimes consented to, but which in any case are very often lived through with great difficulty.

Because one feels quite alone when one can no longer exchange one’s emotions, and our feelings remain one-way, when one has no more love to give and one no longer receives anything either. A sad and bitter observation, then, one that we wish to be as short as possible for those going through it. Fortunately, there is a positive point to this real lack of affection: being able to take genuine stock of one’s own path. Thus, thanks to this period of isolation, many of us take the opportunity to identify precisely what they wish to achieve in the future and what they no longer intend to do from now on.

They thus prepare themselves for a better life, from the moment they have found love again in the arms of a new partner. To illustrate this period of solitude, the card depicts the drawing of a desert island, identical to the one in our favourite tales and films on the subject. With its white sand, its turquoise sea and its blue sky, everything seems idyllic, but on looking more closely, there is strictly nothing at all to do there. Time seems long. Time, then, to reflect on the road already travelled and on the one we shall soon wish to travel. The card is linked to the number 43, which gives us the figure 7 once reduced, sacred symbol of all reflection in numerology.
