I know pleasure has been discussed in various threads but doesn't, as far as I know, have one all to itself. This is an important card that has recently come up in a relationship situation and I thought a discussion would help me figure it out.
What I get from the Book of Thoth:
1. 6 - Tiphareth/ Sun (the Sun keeps reappearing in one or the other guise); corresponds to the Lovers: balance?
2. Sun in Scorpio - the basis of fertility and life through putrefaction
3. The lotus flowers are arranged in a dancing movement: harmony?
4. 'The influence of the Sun on Water': ie the harmonious combination of fire and water
5. Crowley ends the description with 'well-being, harmony without effort or strain, ease satisfaction, fulfilment of sexual will'.
From Gerd Ziegler, Tarot - Mirror of the Soul:
'Rich echange of sexual and emotional energy, pleasure in sexual relationships', the snakes in the cups suggesting the transformational power of sex (healing and renewal implied)
What I get from the card in relation to my question (how to move forward) is enjoyment of each other's company without forcing anything or without any strings attached.
Any other aspects to pleasure that I'm missing?
