6 - The Lovers
Opposing forces join together in exquisite balance. This palpable dance of duality is echoed throughout the Universe - push and pull, day and night, fire and water, earth and sky, yin and yang. What began as an antagonistic relationship forms into one of perfect trust and unconditional love. Zuko, son of the Firelord Ozai, and Katara, daughter of the Southern Water Tribe’s Chief Hakoda, meet as enemies, in every sense of the word. However, after some time, shared life experiences, and a connection with the Avatar, they begin to form a bond of balance and equality. Each put their life on the line to save the other over and over. Zuko even takes a strike of lightning to the heart to block Katara, an act of true selflessness. Whether referring to an alliance between friends or romantic entanglement, this undeniable union only serves to empower both sides. This card indicates a very strong bond that will not be broken easily.
