Meaning of the Promises in Cupid’s Oracle of Love

Card no. 19

During a first meeting, there can be a real love at first sight between 2 people, which will lead them to see each other again and soon to be unable to do without one another. Then will come the beginning of a romantic relationship in which communication between the 5 lovers will be of great importance in creating bonds and trust. Thus, by opening up sincerely and by being present and listening to the other, we grow a little closer still. But there is yet another, even stronger aspect for uniting 2 lovers: the Promises.

While they are above all words that warm the heart, promises are also positive energies which, like sparks, stir the fire of life by creating joy, trust and enthusiasm. Promises are therefore very active and must above all not turn out to be nothing but empty words, unless you want to disappoint the heart of your beloved forever. When promises are very hard to keep, it turns out that they in fact exceed the limits of reason. That is why promises made in love, as in many other areas, must be measured before being announced.

To depict the symbolic act that a promise is, this card shows us the drawing of a ring set with a diamond, resting in the hollow of its pink velvet case. This magnificent ring is meant to represent the promise of an official union such as a marriage or an engagement, and the inside of the case, in sky-blue velvet, that of a coming desire to have a child. The colour of this card’s background is a fuchsia green, which is the one linked to romantic feelings. Moreover, this card is associated with the number 19, which symbolizes the strength of any achievement in numerology.
