Today I pulled for the collective Aquarius sign to ask about the past and present romantic connections, the ones on their minds.

The question asked of the Universe and Guides was: Please provide a Runes Oracle message for the past and present person in romantic connections on the mind of the Aquarius, as well as a message from their souls to the Aquarius. Clarify these messages through the Tarot deck.

Cards pulled:

Past Person Rune Oracle Card: Othala The Hidden Truth Card: I feel you leaving me behind. Tarot: Two of Wands, Seven of Cups, Eight of Cups. Overall Energy: Ace of Cups. Current Person Rune Oracle Card: Thurisaz The Hidden Truth Card: I want to be more than friends. Tarot: Seven of Wands, Nine of Swords, The Hierophant (reversed). Overall Energy: Two of Cups.

My interpretation:

Past Person
The Rune Oracle card drawn for the past person is “Othala,” which signifies “Inherited property or possessions, a house, a home, what is truly important to one, group order, group prosperity.” The message from their soul to you is, “I feel you leaving me behind.” This indicates that your past person senses a deep connection between you and the idea of home, which now symbolizes your departure from the relationship. Whether you’ve physically moved, relocated, or perhaps even started living with someone else, this shift is strongly felt by them. They believe that you belong with them, and this perceived loss is creating a strong emotional response.

The tarot cards clarifying this reading are the Two of Wands, the Seven of Cups, and the Eight of Cups, with the overall energy being the Ace of Cups. If you’re curious about how this past person feels about you, dear Aquarius, the Ace of Cups reveals that they harbor a profound and eternal love for you. This card represents a love that they believe will never fade; they feel that they will always love you. The Two of Wands suggests that this person is actively planning and looking toward the future—a future they hope to share with you. The Seven of Cups shows that they are indulging in a lot of wishful thinking and daydreaming, which ties in with their plans. They are contemplating all the ways they might win you back and start anew. However, the Eight of Cups represents the reality they are facing: you walking away and leaving them behind, mirroring the message conveyed by the Rune card.

Current Person
The Rune Oracle card for the current person on your mind is “Thurisaz,” which symbolizes “Reactive force, directed force of destruction and defense, conflict, instinctual will, vital eroticism, regenerative catalyst, a tendency towards change.” The message from their soul is, “I want to be more than friends.” This person is eager to take significant steps to transform the nature of your relationship. They desire more than friendship and are determined to make that happen, no matter what it takes. This could manifest as them pursuing you more intensely, perhaps even in ways that feel overwhelming, as they seek to seduce or win you over. If you’re already in a relationship with them, they are likely seeking a deeper commitment and will stop at nothing to achieve that.

The tarot cards clarifying this reading are the Seven of Wands, the Nine of Wands, and The Hierophant in reverse, with the overall energy being the Two of Cups. This person believes that you are their soulmate, dear Aquarius. The Two of Cups represents a perfect union, a divine match where two souls come together as one. They are deeply in love with you and are convinced that you are “the one” for them. The Seven of Wands indicates that they are ready to fight for you and for what they want to build with you. This card resonates with the Rune card’s energy, showing that they are prepared to do whatever it takes, even if it involves some level of destruction or upheaval along the way.

The Nine of Wands suggests that they are consumed with thoughts of you, experiencing a lot of anxiety and fear—most likely concerning the possibility of rejection or the challenge of making the relationship work. The Hierophant in reverse indicates that this connection might be unconventional in some way. Perhaps you come from different backgrounds, religions, or there’s something else about your relationship that defies societal norms. This divergence from the status quo is likely contributing to their anxiety, as shown by the Nine of Swords. However, despite these challenges, the love they feel for you is undeniable and strong.
