This is my very FIRST written Tumblr Tarot Reading :) please let me know what you think. I have also posted some text tarot readings on my YouTube (purpleturtletarot) if you are interested in more. Feel free to DM me for suggested tarot reading topics. - I didn't do a lot of editing for this post, so each reading doesn't have much of a conclusion, but enjoy!

You are the type of lover that overthinks everything and may even have the capabilities to astral travel to connect with your love interests. You may have a lot of anxieties or fears of abandonment from past situations. Though, you continue to pour love, effort and investment into your partners, you sometimes feel they don't do the same in return or you're scared that they won't if it's a new love interest. You understand that healthy relationships give space for both parties to grow, and you are eager to water the seeds of a relationship and patiently watch them grow and evolve over time. Sometimes you feel your partners do not give you space to grow by being hypercritical of you not growing fast enough, or finding your evolution a threat in comparison to their own pace of growth. But you love with an open heart, you express your emotions very clearly and sometimes you are the one to admit your romantic feelings to a love interest before they do. Words of affirmation may be your strongest love language to give and receive. Service may be a significant love language for you, as well. You have a strong crown chakra, throat chakra, heart chakra, and solar plexus chakra. You take charge in expressing your heart fully in your relationships and I feel some of your peers are in awe of how you always pick yourself back up after strife in your love life. You really understand the saying that "it's better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all." You may let yourself feel your emotions behind closed doors for a moment, understanding that it's more constructive to work through those feelings than bottle them up. If you're single, you easily open yourself up to new opportunities for love after the fact. If your in a relationship, you easily forgive because you know forgiving is not only for your partner, but also for you. Some view you as an oasis in a desert, and water is symbolic of emotions. Some people view you as a highly empathetic, compassionate person that is rare to find in a world where people perpetuate the stigma that being emotionally expressive is weak. You teach people that showing vulnerability is a strength.

You are the type of lover that is overly generous with your time, energy, effort and resources. You may often get taken advantage of in your partnerships and they may leave you feeling like the grass is greener on the other side. This doesn't necessarily mean with other people, but sometimes you feel it's easier to grow and achieve your goals and desires when you're single and on your own. You're highly independent, while also being a "lover-boy" or "lover-girl" deep down. You fall deeply in love very fast, and can just as easily fall out of love. You're the type to want to be very intimately close to your partner, physically and emotionally. I feel lots of scorpionic energy, and 8th house energy. You're a very nostalgic person and tend to view relationships as important lessons no matter how long or short they are. Though you are nostalgic, you are able to cut people off with a swiftness. You are able to let go of attachments easily and sever cord ties with others when they have taken advantage of your generosity and kindness for too long. And you can easily look ahead to your future, you hold a strong optimistic attitude for your next adventure in romance and love and you can daydream and visualize about it easily. Though you can easily cut past people off energetically, you may leave doors open for them to physically contact you, such as through social media and texting. You may interact with past partners, but they can very much tell that you have emotionally and mentally have moved on. You're against the drama, and are able to be civil with past partners when you see them at different events, functions or social situations involving mutual friends. You tend to wish past partners well, and it sometimes halts them in their tracks if they want to be petty or try and make you jealous.

You are the type of lover that is very logical and somewhat mysterious at times. Though you express yourself easily and clearly, others feels there's much more that lies beyond the surface. When you are feeling more emotional or moody, you tend to retreat to a safe place to let your guard down instead of in front of partners. Some people feel you may put a mask on of who you really are, or that you try to act more tough than you need to be. The imagery of Mulan bathing in a lake comes to mind, it's one of the only times in the movie she allows herself to "be a woman." But her friends come and disturb her from being able to fully immerse herself in her femininity, and she feels the need to hide her true self. Whether you are a man, woman or in-between. I think this means you feel guilty for showing or feeling your femininity and you lean into your masculinity. You are evolving into becoming more balanced between your feminine and masculine. I think your strength, resilience, toughness and logical attitude seduce people in ways that you can become an obsession or drug to some people, or you can sometimes get obsessive or love people like vices. I feel strong push and pull dynamics, and maybe you have an avoidant attachment style. Additionally, you sometimes over-invest or overspend you time, resources, and effort on others. Prominent love languages in your life may be gift giving or words of affirmation, whether that is giving or receiving.
